Jernigan traded to Eagles

Eagles get a former 1st rd draft pick and simply trade 3rd round picks?

Jernigan was a second round pick.

Ravens determined they would not pay Jernigan when his contract ran this year because of their presumed depth at DT.

But getting a starting DT for falling back approx 20 spots in 3rd round seems pretty cheap.

Very nice move by Eagles

Understandable from Ravens as they just resigned a monster in the middle. No way they pay all these guys
 
A literal steal for the Eagles. Ravens got robbed.

However, Timmy was gunna get big money after this year and the Ravens knew they couldn't afford him. I guess they viewed it as getting something instead of nothing, but moving up 20 spots in the 3rd round really isn't all that much.

Eagles defense now has Timmy, Bradham, Terrance Brooks and Patrick Robinson
 
I would have thought they could get a 3rd straight up. This an awesome deal for the Eagles
 
Good for Timmy J but as a Cowboy fan i hate this move
I am with you! As a Cowboy fan too, I hate to see FSU guys wearing Eagles green. I was torn last year, seeing Dustin Hopkins attempting to kick a game deciding field goal. I wanted him to make it, but Washington lose. Sadly he missed, but fortunately the Redskins lost. I felt terrible for him. Happy about Romo retiring so I do not have to see him wearing another team's colors. He is a class act IMHO.
 
His production fell off in the 2nd half of the past year....Why the Ravens traded him
 
Jernigan has been good but not great in the NFL. Hopefully a change will take him to the next level.
 
Hasn't he been playing NT or 3-4 DE for the Ravens? Imo he is a 3 technique who can play the run well
 
As great as Timmy was @ FSU he has been an average DT in the NFL.

He hasn't been a DT in the NFL, he's been playing as a big 3-4 end. I think he'll thrive in Philly where they let him play DT next to Fletcher Cox.
 
Ravens list their "D" as a 3-4 but like most defenses it's a disguise. Had Brandon Williams and Timmy @ DT last year together w/ Timmy playing a lot of 3 technique. I'm pulling for him but has not taken over like many expected. Ozzie for the most part is know as one of the better GMs out there so we shall see...

Their D line is going to be a headache to deal with if their healthy. Thank goodness Barwin got released. The LSU kid better be ready to play now that Leary is gone.
 
One of my all-time favorite FSU players. Loved watching that guy play. Passion, intensity, talent, skill, nasty...the man just had it.
