It could only happen if the 49ers take on the $2.8M roster bonuses. The Eagles don't have $3.7M in 2023 cap to spare.
Howie finds it when he wants to.

They didn't have the money to trade for and sign AJ Brown either. Among dozens of examples.

You sure? It’s my understanding they are under by about 10-12 million at this point.
They are, but once the cap changes from top 51 to actual roster the PS cost will kick in, and that's $3M. That will reduce cap space to $7-9M. Any veteran that goes onto IR gets paid in full and counts against the cap. His replacement on the roster will increase the cap cost. The Eagles are already playing with fire in regards to injury replacements. If they add a $3M player they would effectively be reducing their cap space by another $2.4M or so. I'd be shocked if the Eagles added a $3M player. They could do it, but if they end up exceeding the cap limit the league will clobber them.

SF is not worried about draft capitol, not when you played in the conference champanship and a fav. to be in the SB this year.
When you have to pay players like Bosa (who is holding out btw) after paying Deebo.....draft picks do in fact matter. And they do have more players on that defense they need to pay soon.

There is something called a salary cap. Dallas fans should know this with Dak, Parsons, and others with new deals coming up.

I'm still reading articles tying Lance to the Vikings...No Thanks.
Tampa or Atlanta would be smart to try and get him since they have guys like Mayfield and Ridder at QB.

you missed the part about the object of the game being championships. This trumps cap, draft, whatever else you might come up with.

HOWEVER....the Dallas reference in your post was salty.
Onward!!

He played in a crap conference ,against crap defenses.
Every time he threw deep, before the ball started to come down, the announcer was like " he's got a wide open reciever deep.!"

Shitty pick.

Of the two or overall? Patriots fans seemed on the verge of dumping him for Zappe last year...
Of the two. Lance was/is a project and 49ers are in win now mode. At least Mac Jones had a solid floor and could start day 1
