Back in 2017, the Philadelphia Eagles took an honest look at their situation in the secondary and knew that something had to change. Therefore, they made some calls around the league in an attempt to see which starting cornerback could be available for the right price.
When Howie Roseman got on the phone with the Buffalo Bills, they offered up their former third-round pick, with some high upside in Ronald Darby. At the time, the Eagles knew they had to do something, and the price wasn’t too high. With that, they made a trade.
