I gave that news to you then even…but carry on

Then I gave you the reality check on an ‘all in team’ wouldn’t trade Aiyuck unless really forced to. They can use the fifth year option…you call a dumb move. They can use the tag…you call a dumb option. They can extend their ‘all in’ for two more seasons as far as Aiyuck is concerned.

That’s you on Fangio neither confirming  or denying him remaining here last season to be Reddick’s coach.

?????    2024... Fangio is coach...it's the year in which the Eagles set up the option on Reddick’s contract.   

Regardless of who the DC was last year, Reddick was going to stay the 2 years here.

Oh I'm sorry.... you missed my posts explaining the contract because 10 pages ago I blamed Hurts for something.

Thats all before going into how he was listed as one of the pack of WR I believed we could trade back for instead of taking Reagor at 21.

Rosie had already decided to boot Reddick before this season. Or did you miss how I already explained this fact to The Sheeple?

You are Howard Eskin.    

So the poll that was out a few weeks back about where you preferred Aiyuk to end up.... where did you vote?

Hmmm.... when was Fangio hired?

But explain...I'd love to hear this?   Of course...this comes with research and zero insults to anyone within the Eagles organization?

2022 to run the defense?

Just curious.... aren't we still in " before this season" time frame?   

So ONLY Howie decided to " boot" Reddick.   

And this idea can't possibly be because you wanted Reddick to stay and don't like Howie.... so it's 100% ONLY Howie.

Fangio liking his edge guys to drop into coverage and nothing else had impact on Reddick being traded....simply the GM ?

No…I admit Hurts fault in the situation. The huge difference is I have to explain the mistakes others made that lead to stated plays in the first place so many times. Instead of you just jumping to blame Hurts for everything with zero accountability for any other person that’s a part of this organization.

What did Hurts specifically do wrong?   You have never said anything?

Exactly…point blame where it belongs. Actually pay attention and be more appropriate where you place the blame.

What's BS is "Hurts is the only QB we can win with". Total BS. And why is that? One of,if not THE best supporting cast in the league on offense. Any QB with any above average skills can run this team just fine

"Immense talent, but he makes a lot of mistakes. He's underdeveloped at winning at the line of scrimmage, tends to lock on to targets, more of a thrower than precision passer, forces throws into traffic."

Jalen Hurts,without the tush push eh? Difference,Hurts is semi proficient at short pass accuracy,when he goes deep he gets picked because they are underthrown "dying ducks" because he doesn't have the arm. Hurts "wins at the LOS" because of the best O line in the league,so this "unnamed source" is clueless and probably is the Gnats OC. Allen has an issue with throwing short too HARD and needs to dial that back. All QB's have things they need to work on

So you are really into franchise tags? That cost you more money?

You were adamant about getting Reagor because of his "blazing speed". Pages and pages of you vs me with my JJ pick. only 2 people wanted Reagor in that draft,you and Howie. Everyone else was dead on

Reddick and Sweat were both on the trade block. One or the other was going away regardless.

Franchise tags are bad business.   It's a big salary guaranteed... all counting vs the cap.   

5th year options aren't great either.  Same principle.

It you have an elite player....sign them early and get them cheap.  Pay the player so he's happy, and keep the team in control.

The best big playmaker in the league actually

I wanted Ceedee lamb actually…but felt we should trade back otherwise because there was a group of very talented WR to be had later in the first. Higgins, Aiyuck, Reagor…..

Whole O scheme became so lazy completely relying on Hurts to make the big play

What would you use to classify a " big play "?     And in 2023, where would Hurts rank in these " big plays " ?

Overall...where would Hurts rank in 2021, 2022 and 2023 in this?   

See how 2022  NFL " sheople" can view as the outlier...not the norm.   And same for Reddick.

So let's take a quick minute ...WITH AN OPEN MIND AND ZERO AGENDA... just look at numbers as a comparison.... and you can tell me what works better for " extending your All-in window"

1.  Eagles / Smith contract. 

A player drafted in 2021...

Method = extension prior to year 4

Cap hits from year 4 through 7 are a total of $40 million 

Or

SF / Aiyuk contract...

Player drafted 2020 ... 

Method = the 5th year/ possible tag 

Cap hits year 4 and 5 = $18 mil

Franchise tag # for 2024 = $19 mil.  ( number going WAY WAY up next year)

So let's compare.... my next post...

Eagles/ Smith.... you use $40 mil of cap space through years 4 -7....a 4 year window

SF Aiyuk method.... 5th year plus tag...going to use $40 mil ...probably more, for only 3 years.

On top of that... Smith was drafted a year later... so his numbers started higher from the beginning.  

SF method costs more for a player that should have costed less because he entered the league a year sooner.

 

To keep it simple.... 2 great ways to CLOSE your " All in window" faster... 

1. 5th year option 

2.  Franchise tag

To keep the window open longer.. get  extension done prior to year 4. 

The numbers have zero agenda... they tell the story in an unbiased fashion.

That's salary cap management. 

Player selection.. and who the teams draft or choose to sign or keep... that's different than how they write contracts and when they choose to extend.
