Conditional 3rd in 2026. It doesn't help cap space for this year. It's a situation where they could've held onto him and let him walk and could've gotten a Comp 4th pick in 2026 at worst. It's pretty much the Eagles "trying to do right by the player" and trading him to a team that might extend him. Jets can easily do the same and let him walk and get a 2026 comp pick. Eagles are betting on Jets falling off a cliff post Aaron Rodgers and Reddick meeting these conditions. I'm okay with. At worst, it's like moving up in the 2026 draft.

It's essentially Reddick for Huff and a 2026 3rd. Eagles had an emphasis on getting younger on defense. They're just banking on Huff being able to be a full time player and Nolan Smith being able to produce. I would not be surprised if the Eagles draft a DE in round 1
