It’s no secret wide receiver A.J. Brown is the biggest trade chip the Philadelphia Eagles have this offseason. Pundits have also stressed this spring that quarterback Tanner McKee could be trade bait before the 2026 NFL season.
But putting those two players, Philly Voice’s Jimmy Kempski answered this weekend who are Philadelphia’s next-best trade chips.
Kempski named three players, including veteran tight end Grant Calcaterra.
“Remember when the Eagles traded Harrison Bryant last training camp? I could see them dealing Calcaterra from some player who isn’t going to make another team’s roster,” wrote Kempski. “He’s certainly expendable with Dallas Goedert, Eli Stowers, Johnny Mundt, and intriguing UDFA Dae’Quan Wright on the roster.”
Calcaterra has spent all four of his NFL seasons with the Eagles. Philadelphia re-signed him to a 1-year contract this offseason.
Since then, though, the team has brought back or added the four other tight ends Kempski mentioned.
