We were a couple of hours into the night. The 2019 NFL Draft was well underway, and the Philadelphia Eagles were waiting patiently for the 25th pick to come up. Since there were a few reaches as always, many players who were expected to get picked early, ended up falling. And once the Eagles realized they could get their hands on one of their top guys, they felt the need to trade up and beat anybody else to it — specifically, the Houston Texans.
With the Texans picking at No. 23, the Eagles needed to jump them in order to get their top tackle on the board.
