Could RB-depleted Eagles trade for LeSean McCoy? Published: Oct 09, 2018 at 07:59 AM Around the NFL Writer It's dot-connecting season in the NFL. Keegan Akin Jersey With the losing to an ACL tear and the in rebuild-mode, could make a return to Philly? NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported that there is interest in a homecoming for McCoy, but it remains to be seen if the two sides can make a deal work. With a game Thursday, it could be tricky for the , Rapoport noted. It's worth pointing out that GM Howie Roseman is well known to look into many potential moves, even if nothing comes to fruition. A previous report from Josh Reed of WIVB in Buffalo suggested the have already reached out to the about a po sible trade for McCoy. Given that the defending winners remain in their championship window, it makes sense for Roseman to see if Buffalo is willing to part with the talented but aging running back. It wouldn't be the first time Roseman checked in on McCoy's availability. NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reported on on Tuesday that the GM had shown interest in Jeremy Hellickson Jersey a reunion with McCoy in the past. "The , I had mentioned earlier on , had checked in on McCoy before," Garafolo said. "So I would not be shocked if they do check in and at least see if the would be willing to part with McCoy.

So Roseman knows that now is the time where you can go all in and surround him with as much talent as po sible." For the , it makes sense not to pay big money for a 30-year-old back who is making north of $6 million in 2018 and 2019. Selling McCoy, however, would strip down an already talent-deficient offense and put further pre sure on rookie quarterback to carry the load. McCoy Heston Kjerstad Jersey is coming off his best game of the season, an 85-yard, 24-carry day in a win over Tenne see. It's not clear at this stage what sort of compensation the might offer to pry-away McCoy. One thing is certain: in a winnable NFC East, even Manny Machado Jersey at 2-3, the ' window remains open. As long as that remains the case, expect Roseman to inquire about any way he could make his team better. Even if McCoy isn't the same back that dashed for 1,300-plus yards each of his final two seasons the last time he wore Philly green, he'd provide a reliable weapon paired with , and (when he returns healthy) in the backfield next to .
