Report: Eagles-Chargers-Titans three team trade possible in order to land Mariota

Trade rumors continue to swirl regarding the Eagles trading up for Marcus Mariota, and it could involve a trade between the Eagles, Chargers and Titans.
Take a look at how the trade would work via Rant Sports:
The Eagles would receive the No. 2 overall pick from the Titans, which they would then use to draft Mariota.
The Chargers would receive Sam Bradford, the Eagles’ first-round pick and the Titans’ second-round pick.
The Titans would receive Philip Rivers and the Eagles’ third-round pick.
A lot of questions are raised as to whether a River-Bradford swap would be an upgrade for the Charger, and if this is the “mortgaging the future” trade that Kelly said the Eagles would not partake in.
Also the Titans would be receiving a 33-year-old QB all while in the process of rebuilding, which could take some time. Is it worth it for a young team to rebuild around an aging quarterback?
There has been plenty of talk between NFL Insiders and reporters on whether this rumor is even possible or completely outrageous.
The trade might not be a full proof plan for any of the teams involved, but in the end Chip Kelly and the Eagles would land Mariota, the Titans would get Rivers, and San Diego end up with four draft picks in the top 66 while also receiving a starting caliber quarterback.
