Anyone excited about the recent transactions? Still in disbelief that we were able to get rid of the Horford contract. Between shipping out Horford and Richardson we freed up over 11 mil for this season. I'm also stoked to get back Seth Curry who is exactly the type of player we needed to bring...
I see no fire at all from him this year ... throwing flat footed, mechanics are bad, throwing into coverage, looks slower. Has married life, fatherhood and financial stability sapped his edge? I know it's only 2 games without a preseason, but rookie Justin Herbert from San Diego was thrown into...
It sounds like there's a good chance (if the price is right) that Clowney may sign with the Eagles. The price would be a 1 year prove it deal between 9-12 mil which would be tremendous value. He wants to play with a winner as he has already turned down bigger money from average to below average...
According to Over the Cap, the Eagles are 50 mil over the Cap figure for 2021. For starters, anyone hoping to add a Clowney or any other expensive free agent left on the market ... it ain't happening. The Eagles will need to carry over their 15 mil or so into next season and after signing their...
I think in the one game where DeSean Jackson was 100% healthy last season the Eagles brass saw what life could be like if Carson Wentz had that option in the game plan on a regular basis. I think they decided after the season that they were not going to have Wentz go through another season with...
Predict which is the main receiver out of this draft that we end up with ... We may end up with two of them (you never know), but which one do we end up with as the "primary" WR pick?
Trade: The Eagles trade back into the 2nd round with the Indianapolis Colts.
*** Details: The Eagles give up pick 21 and pick 127 (4th round) and in return receive the Colts pick 34 (Rd 2) and pick 44 (Rd 2).
Reasoning from the Colts: The Colts signed Phillip Rivers for one year as a bridge...
Final WR Rankings for the Eagles “Only” ... based on how these players would fit for Philly, not exactly how I have them ranked "overall".
Jerry Jeudy Alabama – (Projected Rd 1) Think a faster Jerry Rice with a slight downgrade on hands. Inside, outside, it doesn't matter, this kid can dust...
It really looks like Yannick will be traded prior to the draft to somebody ... obviously he will get a new long term deal at over 20 mil per with his new team (probably around 22). It sounds like the longer this drags on for the Jags, the lesser the asking price. What is the most you guys would...
Pre-Mock Disclaimer
** Looks like there's a good chance the Eagles keep WR Alshon Jeffery on the roster this season. As long as he and Carson are ok with things, it doesn't make any sense to cut him as you don't save any money and nobody is going to trade for him with his salary and health...
Free Agency:
** Byron Jones CB/S
This is the player to splurge on as the Eagles desperately need to improve the CB position. Jones is a rock solid Corner in his prime with size and speed; plus you take him away from Dallas which makes this a double bonus. Dallas has a bunch of money this...
We don't have a specific thread for this stuff, so I'll get one started ...
I'll start with WR ... which may be our biggest need. I know many people would like us to end up with Jets FA Robby Anderson, but I have a feeling he will end up getting over-paid (between 10-12 mil per year). I think a...
Looks like our starting WR's will be Practice Squad call-up Robert Davis who has a really good size-speed Combo ... JJAW on the outside with Davis and Greg Ward starting in the slot.
Predictions?
The New York Daily News' Manish Mehta reports the Jets have made Robby Anderson available ahead of next Tuesday's trade deadline.
This isn't the first time New York has contemplated moving Anderson, as the deep threat drew interest from the Eagles, amongst other teams, at last year's deadline...
Rumor has it that the Eagles are looking into a potential trade for OBJ ... how do you guys feel about this? I would be in 100% Don't know how it would work money wise ... but OBJ, Alshon and DJax when he comes back would make for a hell of a trio ... add in Ertz and our Offense would be pretty...
Can't wait for game 2. Very excited about this Offense moving forward ... DJax's week 1 performance will open up all kinds of possibilities underneath for rest of the team as coaches now have to adjust their Defenses for that deep connection between Jackson and Wentz. Our running game this...
Rasul Douglas has been in the weight room A LOT this offseason
Always been a fan of his ... good ball hawk and took a step forward last season. This off season he's hit the weights and cardio hard. Hoping he takes another step at either Safety "or" Corner. I think his ball hawking and tackling...
No grading, but I think the Eagles did an excellent job with their top 3 selections. Below are my thoughts after having some time to think about the picks and looking at even more video / game tape as well as reading up on all 3.
Rd 1: Andre Dillard LT Washington State (6'5” 315 lbs)
***...
Some players I would be fine with in Rd 1 for us: OL G Bradbury, DE Clelin Ferrell, WR AJ Brown, WR Marquise Brown, DE Brian Burns, DT Dexter Lawrence ...
