Fantasy Impact:
The Philadelphia Eagles surrendered the 12th overall pick and the 84th overall pick to the Dallas Cowboys in order to acquire the 10th overall pick to select playmaking wide receiver, Devonta Smith. It is rare to see trades between division rivals, but eschewing a two-spot drop to acquire a third simply because of the trade partner would have been bad business, especially with Jaycee Horn and Patrick Surtain off the board. The Eagles paid a small price for a player who should quickly become their number one receiver. Smith will form an incredibly explosive tandem with 2020 first round pick Jalen Reagor. Jalen Hurts now has the weapons at wideout he needs to flourish.
