Vikings Trade Greenard, Eagles Score Draft-Night Steal

0:00On April 25, Vikings just shipped out edge-resher Jonathan Greenar to the Eagles in a draft-night blockbuster, along with a seventh-round pick, four. The 98th overall selection, and a third-rounder next year, Philly wasted no time, locking Grenard into a four-year deal with $50 million guaranteed, dudes turning 29 this season, and racked up 24.5 sacks over the last two years split between Houston and Minnesota. Meanwhile, the draft kept rolling with some surprise quarterback grabs in the third round. No picks there till Arizona snag Carson Beck from Georgia. At 65, then Pittsburgh added Penn State's Drew Aller at 76. Teams also loaded up on run-stuffing linebackers, like the Colts taking CJ Allen out of Georgia at 53, who's got starter potential right. Away. Folks are calling this another Howie Roseman Masterclass for Philly, the guy whose fleece deals for AJ Brown, Sequan Barkley, and more. Analysts on shows loved it, saying Greenar's a game-changer worth the price even at 25 million
