Team graph is updated in the article.

I'd read that too, but a 6th rounder? Gotta be something more to it.

its a rb, thats a grinder, , and they knew they didnt want em, i bet best they could get

 

[TREFF]

I read that its not even truly a sixth, a 2020 conditional pick that could become a sixth, which means, it might end up being a seventh? And not even an immediate benefit..that's about as low as it gets as far as compensation goes

Its a 6th that can become a 5th

So one baby step up from almost nothing

I mean he was on the last year of his contract, wasn't a fit for their current scheme and they have a chance of getting back what they originally paid. If the Eagles give him an extension(maybe 2 years 6 million) i could see this being a win win scenario.

 

[TREFF]

so a sixth, next year, possibly a fifth. Surely there are benchmarks that trigger that condition, linked to his production, right? Games started or played, touches, yards..something like that. Which means, that if a 4 back rotation gets the job done, they have an incentive to NOT use Howard more. Great

Maybe it's tied to where the Eagles finish? A good finish means a 5th. Bad finish means a 6th?


Isn't @HaroldSeattle the contract expert?

I find it hard to believe that the Vikings wouldn't offer more just to replace Lativius Murray.

Cap issues maybe, but trade contingencies not so much.

everything i saw regarding Bears/Eagles deal was that the conditions to determine 5th vs 6th hadn't been released yet - no clue if they technically even have to release that info, as long as the two teams are in agreement.

I may be wrong but those types of deals are most likely based on where a team finishes. Not how the player does. Player performance is usually what drives incentives and bonuses.
But again...

It could also be his percentage of snaps

Naw...they have AMEER!!

almost always how they play out in hockey, but I think Trudem is on the right path, I feel like a lot of the NFL conditions are things like percentage of games/snaps played, statistical milestones on the season, etc

or those are the conditions for contractual bonuses......

I'm also lost, lol!!

CJ Anderson signing with Detroit or at least working towards it

Eagles interested in Duke? Really glad I don't own any shares of Eagles RBs in any of my leagues.

Just was commenting on him yesterday

Anderson is a plodder and that would be okay if he provided value as a blocker or receiver, but he is below average in both of those areas and would just be a less talented Blount for us.

what a waste of a roster spot/cap space.
