None of us ever have any guarantees on how the selection meeting will play out, so let’s just say that there was some scenario that would allow us to reverse the order in which those two very important moments of the offseason fell. The Philadelphia Eagles could have used all ten of their draft choices, and then, based on how things played out, they then could have rounded out the roster with free-agent signings.
The flipside of that is this.
