The Denver Broncos and the Miami Dolphins made a trade on Tuesday morning that holds relevance for the Philadelphia Eagles.
The deal:
BRONCOS RECEIVE — WR Jaylen Waddle, 2026 Dolphins fourth-round pick
DOLPHINS RECEIVE — 2026 Broncos first-round pick (No. 30 overall), 2026 Broncos third-round pick, 2026 Broncos fourth-round pick

The relevance to the Eagles:

The Eagles’ reported asking price for Brown in a trade is further legitimatized with the Waddle trade. Though Waddle is about 1.5 years younger, Brown is a superior player. Here’s a look at their stats since 2021, which is when Waddle entered the NFL.
It remains to be seen if a team (likely the New England Patriots) actually steps up and meets the Eagles’ asking price. But Howie Roseman is only looking more justified to hold firm and demand that a certain threshold must be met in order for him to trade Brown.
