Especially since we have two high paid already rostered. Why can’t a starting LB be paid and rostered? Queen is 13 mil annually. With Rosie that would mean only a few mil against our cap for the next few years even. Like a pathetic four mil cap hit this season would be a typical Rosie signing. Why do we have to give up anybody or position just to pay 4 mil on the cap for a stud LB? Like I said maybe he had friends on the other team. Lots of factors involved. BTW Huff can play DE or DT and he can change on any play. very versatile. Kind of like the C/G guys although I suspect we use him at DE. We need those guys we drafted to step up now. It's their time. I REALLY wanted Luvu,but once again you can't always get what you want
March 14, 20242 yr Author 1 hour ago, cunninghamtheman said: No point I’m not keeping up. Clearly my comment was much more reality based. Can’t judge much of anything at this early point of the offseason. Nobody has done terrible or great really. Keep trying to get across the point of the job consisting of putting together a complete and whole roster. Frankly our team isn’t very good at this point today. Which is fine. But really leery pointing out how Eagles fans seem to be beating their chests over these early signings. Dickerson was an obvious move needed to be made. But we coughed up so much money it reset the interior Oline market league wide. Nothing genius about retaining a guy we drafted by overpaying him. We broke the bank on that signing. Wasn’t any good deal achieved. Threw money at him like we were in a bidding war for a top FA. Then we’ve brought in several Edge players. But we actually have high quality Edge players on the roster. Easily could be seen as our usual over obsession over pass rushers. If Rosie fails to get much in return for proven vet strong starting pass rushers in a trade? Makes that whole situation all the worse. Pass rushers are so coveted….yet we’ll see what we get for our guy. The CGJ signing even. Supposedly we walked away from retaining him last offseason over so much less money. Now this offseason sign him for twice the amounts being rumored we headlined last offseason? He was pretty much injured all season even. Missing most of the season shouldn’t have increased his value so greatly. I’m sure his rumored signing is being packaged to us as much bigger than reality. It’s a "could be up to contract.” Meaning CGJ gets his respect of media reporting 3 year at 33 or whatever…when the real pay isn’t that. Can't judge? How many studs did Dullaz get in FA???

Howie went out of his comfort zone and I hope he can do that in the draft
March 14, 20242 yr Author 1 hour ago, cunninghamtheman said: The CGJ signing highlights what a massive mistake our GM did last offseason really. Pay twice as much for a CB than a S. The S was so very clearly the young playmaker in his prime. No study of rocket science should have been needed to have easily have already understood all this. CGJ was very obviously a better more talented player. A playmaker even. It was Howies fault CJG got mad and walked last year? Point is Howie demands a pass rush which seemed eerily lacking last year,so he's retooling it with Huff and with other good DE's we can always have a fresh in one in on a rotation. Maybe Howie kissed his ass and bought him a car

Gardner-Johnson. Re-signed: TE Albert Okwuegbunam, DE Brandon Graham, P Braden Mann, LS Rick Lovato. Guys, what about the DB the Eagles picked up that got suspended for gambling? He should be considered an "addition”, right?

He was even underutilized there. Their new ownership dumped him off not realizing his value. He’d come right in as the 2/3 TE job. Nothing spectacular. Not a huge signing. Just an easy cheap upgrade the TE depth signing. The guy that was hurt all the time?

Zero LBs. Clearly its an organizational philosophy for decades ...not to spend on LB. Clearly there has always been money for that, but it's just a choice not to spend. Clearly Ham doesn't want to see this obvious thing.
