Saints: 3 offseason realistic trade scenarios for Carson Wentz
Carson Wentz for Malcolm Jenkins and a first-round pick
With this second trade scenario, we are sticking with the secondary issues for the Philadelphia Eagles. They no longer need Wentz and will be willing to dump him and his cloud of $128 million onto someone else even if it means a $33 million cap hit.
In this second scenario, we move from the cornerback to the safety position. Malcolm Jenkins started his career with the Saints, then found his way to the Eagles. In the last offseason, Jenkins found his way back to the Saints, and now he might find his way back to the Eagles.
The Saints offered Jenkins more money than the Eagles were willing to offer even though he is talented and played well in Philadelphia. Since he has gotten to New Orleans, Jenkins has been nothing but a public relations nightmare for the team.
From denouncing teammates to signing with CNN, the black and gold should want to let Jenkins go. For the Eagles, he would be a welcomed presence back to be a veteran addition to the rookie K’Von Wallace’s career. Oh, and they would get a first-round pick out of the deal too.
