Who says he’s not still an option? Boom. 

I believe he is once a sweat and/or reddick trade happens.

I think people are undervaluing Saquon. He is certainly a huge upgrade to our team.

Needs to stay healthy first

I honestly hope SB can stay healthy for you guys...

Eagles next RB. Aaron Jones. Eagles trade Sweat for Jones and a 2nd. Packers are moving to a 4-3.

I would love that move.

I think it's mainly about the unknown.  Unknown because he's only had one good season....and the unknown about Reddick/Sweat.  I will say if he continues as a double digit sack guy, the money is good value on Huff

2 good seasons. Not just a 1 year wonder.

Paying him like this is to be a true lead back. He’s going to get 20+ touches per game to make this worth it.

Still have our QB who likes to run

That's a solid contract. Would have done that.

Hi Joe.  What's your FA wishlist?

He’s played 30 games the last two seasons with top 10 most rushes in the league.

Last season with CMC.  

That was a trade. Not a FA. Also, CMC is way better than Barkley.

Can someone explain the fascination with Barkley from fans and the media? Is it the draft position? The guy is oft injured and his numbers have been crap 3 of the last 4 years. I just don't get it. If we were getting rookie Saquon, then OK.

Unless I am missing something, this seems to be an epically terrible deal.

This time next year or year after I’ll probably hate the deal but today I’m excited.

I think the main thing to get excited about is Saquon hasn't had an OL like the Eagles have to run behind. Now, of course that OL had Kelce and this one doesn't. 

Probably in the minority but I like both of these signings for 2024.  The cap is there, why not.  Just get us a safety and linebacker.

We needed to give Barkley 93 million instead 

Saquon is a premier running back who just turned 27. We’ll have him til he’s 30, and he’ll join one of the most talented offenses in the league coming from literally trash can juice garbage of an offense.

Yes. Everyone laughed at the Giants for the last 5 years but are now applauding the Eagles.

I think his numbers are more reflection of playing behind a bottom ten oline, with a bad qb and the giants weapons being either hurt or garbage around him.

I wouldn’t have signed him but the giants being a dumpster fire around him contributed to those numbers
