DeMarco Murray

Eagles, Titans swap fourth-round picks as part of DeMarco Murray deal

The Philadelphia Eagles and Tennessee Titans will swap fourth-round picks as the terms of the DeMarco Murray trade, 975 The Fanatic's Geoff Mosher reports.

What It Means:

The exact terms haven't been established because compensatory picks will move the slots down, but it's obviously a minor price for Tennessee to pay. The Titans do have the No. 2 pick in the fourth round, so the Eagles will move to the top of that round. The Titans move down 12 slots. The real reason Philadelphia dealt Murray was to get rid of his contract. That deal was revised upon his arrival in Nashville and is now valued at $25.5 million over four years.

Murray's first -- and now only -- year in Philadelphia was a mess. Among backs with at least 100 carries, he checked in 23rd in Rushing Net Expected Points per attempt. In Tennessee, Murray should be given every opportunity to lead the Titans' backfield in touches. Murray's arrival puts a huge dent into the values of Bishop Sankey, Antonio Andrews and David Cobb.
