Every day. We’re going to hear about this every day.

Mark Eckel at NJ.com spoke to the ever-elusive “person familiar with the Eagles’ offseason plans,” who told him that the Eagles will attempt to make a move to get Marcus Mariota in the draft. Said the source:

“From No. 20, it’s certainly not going to be easy. It’s probably going to take moving up twice to do it. There’s going to be some wheeling and dealing involved … Can it happen? I don’t know. But they’re going to try.”

If they’re going to try to make the move, the only thing standing in the way is what they’re willing to give up (or what they’ll need to give up). One NFL personnel executive told NJ.com that he’d ask for “a No. 1 and a No. 2 this year, a No. 1 next year and running back LeSean McCoy.” That is a whole hell of a lot. Like, too much. Then again, if Chip and the Eagles aren’t very high on McCoy and his salary — a possibility — and the rumblings that McCoy’s days in Philly are numbered were true, then this might not be that farfetched.

The big concern here is “mortgaging the future” just to get that shiny new toy Chip Kelly wants. But it could be a smart move on his part. By bringing in Mariota — a QB who wants to play for him and, presumably, would thrive in his system — Chip could put a potential franchise quarterback under center, while giving himself time (now that he has the power) to build a complete team around Mariota. And if the Eagles stretch for Mariota and he pans out, just imagine how hesitant Jeffrey Lurie — now the only man really above Chip — would be to separate the two. It’s a huge stretch and a big risk for the Eagles and their fans… but maybe not so much for Kelly. Of course, if it were to backfire colossally, he’d probably get fired in two years.
