In Week 7, Philadelphia lost at home to the bitter rival Dallas Cowboys. It wasn't a pretty game, as the final score of 38-21 reflected. Could the loss force the Eagles to more seriously consider trading some current veteran pieces?
One player to keep an eye on could be linebacker Zack Baun. New reports have suggested that Philadelphia has received interest in him from a rival NFC contender.

According to a report from Packer Report's Easton Butler, the Green Bay Packers have called the Eagles about Baun. Butler did note that he does not expect the two sides to get a deal done.

"The Packers have reportedly called the Eagles about LB Zack Baun, per sources. Sounding like the Eagles are listening to offers on multiple players as well," Butler wrote on X .
"And no I don't think GB makes this trade."
Baun has been a consistent piece of the Philadelphia defense for the last three years. Moving him would be a difficult decision that would certainly weaken the defense.
So far this season with the Eagles, Baun has played in six games. He has recorded 51 total tackles to go along with five defended passes. Last year, he racked up 123 tackles, 3.5 sacks, a forced fumble, a fumble recovery, two interceptions, and seven defended passes.

Since being drafted by the New Orleans Saints out of Wisconsin with the No. 74 overall pick in the third round of the 2020 NFL Draft, Baun has played in 100 games. He has totaled 413 tackles, nine sacks, six forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries, four interceptions, and 18 defended passes.
Expect to continue hearing rumors surrounding the Eagles as the trade deadline draws closer. Baun is worth monitoring as a potential trade candidate. It sounds like the Packers have at least shown some level of interest in acquiring him already.
