According to The National Football Post, the Eagles and Browns have reportedly held “preliminary” trade talks involving outside linebacker Chris Gocong. Gocong, a former third round selection of the Birds, was a restricted free agent who signed his $1.176 million one-year tender. Gocong lost playing time last year to rookie Moise Fokou as a result of his poor pass coverage skills. Browns new GM Tom Heckert is familiar with Gocong from his time in Philly and likely believes that his skills would translate better in the Browns 3-4 scheme as an edge pass rusher.
