There's no stopping them - Eagles sign another

Had they been a little less obvious about it they may have got away with it like the Raiders did.

I agree with that somewhat. I felt like Wash and Dallas kind of threw it back in the NFLs face. But I think having already gone through that once now the NFL will make the "rules" crystal clear about what will and won't be tolerated. Instead of a penalty they may structure year one of the new CBA to reflect adjustments for all teams for the amount over or under what the cap would have been if in place

Oakland and Tampa got away with it because the league threatened them with fines too if they didn't agree to fuck over Dallas and Washington.

If Jerry does this exact move it is called out as "screwing the future".

Eagles fans:

“Dallas is screwed bc they have big contracts coming due!”

“Philly has more than enough money to pay Wentz and anybody else they want bc they have a genius managing the cap!”

Pushing money back to gain Cap Space today and putting non guaranteed money into later years of contracts? Why hasn't other teams figured this out.

Here's a cap story written about Howie and the Eagles.

I don’t feel that way. Dallas will keep everyone

What difference does it make when you don’t have a reliable quarterback when it matters?

So how many games will it take for Eagles fans to start missing Foles?

Healthy cap spot??? This must be one of the people calling Howie a cap genius. It should say Philly kicks almost $6M of cap space down the road. I just pointed out they could do this twice in the last couple of days and how it would be dumb but could get them to $35M under if they did Ertz and Jeffery both. Yet some will say this is genius...

Never in cap trouble = Howie Roseman and the Eagles

The League had to change the way the NLTBE incentives hit the cap because of Howie manipulating the system. He's just doing it again.

Nice, I like when my defenders get arrested for fights in the offseason.
Very acceptable.

Been a decade and we are still waiting.

Not long... as soon as wentz gets hurt.

Really?

 

[eaglesnut]

This is the 3rd generation of players they've done this with across a decade of success. And that's even with Chip Kelly coming in and botching it all up for one year. Howie had to clean it up.
He cleaned it up quickly into a Super Bowl victory.
Here comes another.

Here comes another.

and if not, the next season, or the next....but certainly in the next 50 seasons
