Alvin Kamara trade rumors: Eagles are NOT pursuing Saints running back

The Philadelphia Eagles are NOT trying to trade for New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara, according to a report from Pro Football Talk.
As Mike Florio noted, there’s been a rumor going around that the Eagles are interested in Kamara and the Saints are asking for their first-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft back in return.
It’s a pretty ridiculous rumor. Howie Roseman is so obviously not trading a selection that currently is projected to be No. 4 overall in exchange for a running back. Let alone for an expensive one who’s had some injury issues.
The rumor seemed to originate from a random unverified Twitter account seemingly posing to have insider knowledge when the reality is it’s probably just someone spewing BS to rack up social media clout.
It’s pretty silly that this “rumor” has to be addressed at all. I suppose I’m part of the problem by giving it any attention. That said, it seems worse to me to actually be giving exposure to nonsense by sharing the direct source material (via retweet or quote tweet in this instance).
We would be better off not sharing something that strongly seems like fake news.

I'm confused now. Do we trust Florio, or is he still a hack w/ no credible sources?

hey dufus, you realize the eagles have their own first round pick in addition to ours?

I didn't believe there would be a trade but now that Florio confirmed it...bye bye AK

Every post i saw about it said the Saints wanted their pick back, not just a first, but theirs.

I don't expect that the Eagles are going to give up their own selection for Kamara either. Besides when have you known Florio to bog himself down with minor details like research.

No way they giving that 1st round pick up when he is also facing a likely lengthy suspension
2nd or 3rd is about the most you can hope to get plus maybe a 6th or 7th

Guess they offered a 6th rounder and we asked for a 5th so they walked.

Even a first would be questionable - draft picks are inherent gambles, while AK is an established top5 back.

And our joke of a GM would waste any pick on a bum that would spend much more on IR than the field (see Project Peat as a good example).
