The Eagles on Tuesday signed WR Jason Avant to a five year deal.
Bucs Trade For Eagles WR Reggie Brown
They also traded a player with five year remaining on a contract.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports the Eagles shipped off Reggie Brown to the Bucs in exchange for a 2011 sixth round pick.
To be honest, I think a sixth round pick in the next year’s draft is about as bad as it gets for a player. That’s an incredibly low level of compensation.
Reggie Brown showed a lot of promise in his second year in the league with over 800 yards receiving and eight touchdowns. Those tallies quickly dropped off year to year ending with just nine catches for 155 yards and no touchdowns in 2009.
Brown’s under contract through 2014 at over $10 million in base salary.
The Bucs let WR Antonio Bryant hit free agency over the weekend and it doesn’t look like he’s coming back. so there’s definitely a need at the position.
