There's no stopping them - Eagles sign another

[Manster7588]

Zero. Go look at Overthecap and count how many players we have signed. Over 51

I see a number of below NFL roster type players w hu o will be asked to play more snaps than you'd expect them to play.

Injuries can hurt every team, but the Eagles look like they'd in a major car accident with just a couple of injuries. Next man up won't work in Philly.

We still have more money to spend, 8 draft picks (3 in first 2 rounds) to go. We only lost guys who weren’t contributers because the good players we lost we signed their replacements. Is everything perfect? No! Zero at RB, LB and CB. Actually we really need a LBer cause we didn’t find a replacement for Jordan Hicks. But there is this thought out there that we are 15 guys short of fielding a team. Who are these big time depth guys we lost and didn’t replace outside of the huge one in Foles have we lost. I can’t think of any so correct me if I’m wrong.

Eagles are #16 in available cap space at $22.6M.
NFL 2019 Salary Cap Tracker

Roughly $6M to draft picks.
They should comfortably have about $15M now to sign a few more players and/or extend Wentz.

Yes most teams have to rely on FAs, some teams "2019 Eagles" more than others.

Hmmm, 2 new starters from outside the organization. Which of the other 31 teams have less than that? Go ahead, let's see you give us some substance for a change...

Well at least we now know your delusions don't stop with the NFL.

After you get up from this standing 8 count. Do yourself a favor and just fall back down. Both my hands are hurting from continually slapping you and the rest of the Philidiots around daily.

I knew you'd cowardly wimp out after being called a coward. Dry yourself off and come back when you get better.

That doesn't include Darby or D Jax and damn did they back load M Jackson contract. That's the type of cap maneuvering that is just short-sighted. I guess they learned that from Jerry...but the piper will be paid...

Guess we'll have to wait to see what happens, eh.....

Is Golden Taint still on the team? What was his price tag for 8 games?

We already know now will happen with his cap hit if the reported numbers are accurate. They went incredibly low this year at the expense of the next two years. As far as the rest of the team goes in the future I suspect a lot of that depends on what happens with Wentz and when. I suspect he gets a huge deal, but not anytime soon

I don't believe he will get a huge deal.

I believe he will sign a team friendly contract with incentives for staying healthy that will net him a larger salary.

Funny thing is when Jerry was doing the same kick the can down the road contracts, he was a bad GM, now that Howie is going it he's great. What Eagles fans are ignoring is this compounds yearly.

Clearly we are rebuilding.

Deja vu all over again.

They do this every year, but you don't know because you don't pay attention.

In 2017, they were "over the cap" according to the clueless, and then signed Alshon for 14 million, traded for Darby, gave Blount 3 million, signed Foles for 11 million, gave Torrey Smith 5 million, plus other additions to the cap.

Oh and won the Super Bowl.

It's a shame you can't remember.

Really disagree but I know the Hoop routine... the Eagles are fucked (no matter what the topic). The are great at structuring contracts. The difference between Dallas and Philly is we don’t give HUGE back loaded contracts to mediocre players like Marion Barber, Roy Williams and Miles Austin. We only backload players who we know will be around and not dead money. Huge difference. The Eagles strategy is nothing like what Dallas used to do.

Don't let facts get in the way of a false narrative....
