Here’s some news that’s liable to make you smile if you’re a Philadelphia Eagles fan, and no this doesn’t fall into the category of ‘rumors’. According to the team’s official website, the Birds have agreed to trade the sixth-overall selection in Round 1 of the 2021 NFL Draft along with a fifth-round selection in 2021 (the 156th-overall selection) to the Miami Dolphins.

In exchange, Philly gets Miami’s 2021 draft picks at 12 and at 123 (a fourth-rounder). The Eagles will also receive Miami’s first-round selection in 2022.
