Nah. Based off his performance/playing time etc it should be about half that amount.

I wouldn’t move DeJean. Guys who can cover quicker guys in the slot, still have the height to match up with bigger receivers, and have the physicality to support the run are exceedingly rare. I almost think it will be easier to find a good boundary corner than it will be to replace Cooper in the slot.

Yep. DeJean in the slot is a future All-Pro there.  You don’t change a thing there.

Wow.  Kenny Pickett's 5th year bonus is over $21M.  Hard pass on that.

Obviously Davis is a no-brainer.  
 

Pickett and Dotson would need new deals though.

Really hoped the Cowboys would draft Manziel instead.

Jfc whats his salary next yr? Cut him yesterday

I like where Coop is as well, but to pay him outside CB $ likely means we have to make a sacrifice elsewhere or hit on another draft pick to even out the cost across the secondary.

I legitimately think it will be easier to find a good (not great) starting boundary corner than it will be to recreate what DeJean gives us in the slot.

A value-priced vet FA DL/Edge will come in to take up necessary rotational snaps

I'm not sure what you do there. But they could always work out an extension so I'm not all that worried about not picking it up. I think there's definitely more potential there but he's gotta play more than 12-15 snaps. He can't be called a core player when he's only playing that minimal amount of plays. 

The Eagles Media Guide shows 1,047 Defensive snaps for the 17 game season.  Davis had 388 Defensive snaps, which is 37% of 1,047. 

388 divided by 17 is 23 snaps a game.

In addition, Davis had 245 Special Teams snaps … another 14+ snaps per game.

Cap number is $2.6M.  Remember, the Eagles are only on the hook for his salary and not his prorated signing bonus.   Plus, the 5th year salary is always a big jump... and I think the 5th year is based on a percentage of the average at their position.  So, a DT like Jordan Davis is a bargain compared to a QB like Pickett.

12m is.a no brainer to pick up the 5th yr. Still plenty of time to observe and negotiate an extension. Otherwise he comes off the books right as you have ti pay Carter and Smith

Sweat and Williams are gone baby gone imo.  And so is BG once I saw him with those 2 trophies on the stage.  All opinion, of course.

Ah, you read Dennis Lehane.

Projections:

Wherever he goes, Williams will not produce like he has next to Carter.
Ojomo will equal William's production
Hunt will equal Sweat's production
A value-priced vet FA DL/Edge will come in to take up necessary rotational snaps
The pick at 32, if taken, will be DT/EDGE/LB and contribute this year

Injuries not withstanding, the D will be better next year than it was this year.
Fangio has a group of players who are (1) smart enough and (2) talented enough to pull off his system.

He produced 5 sacks last year. You don't think he can produce 5 sacks on his own? He got half of that in the Superbowl. 😄 All kidding aside. His snap count will go up with a larger contract. I expect Carter's to go down. And figure out the difference with rest. Enough to go around since Davis is pretty much a run stopping role player at this point for 15 snaps a game. I don't think some people are accepting that yet here. Still like him for that role. Someone is gonna have to take the hit here probably going forward as far as the core goes. Best plan is to keep Ojomo and Davis for 2 more years here and then assess and see what salary cap looks like and what production they have. Both may be casualties after the 2 year term here. 

PS. Ojomo got Zero sacks (regular season) playing next to Carter this year....anyway.

Yes. Absolutely. He completely dominated Fletcher Cox. I mean, Fletch got nothing. Second best guard the turds ever had.

Word is Sirianni wanted Patullo in 2023, but Howie and Lurie were the ones who wanted Brian Johnson.

I wondered about that, maybe why Siri's job wasn't at risk.

Pickett is definitely gonna be dealt this offseason. I think he and Huff are two most likely to be traded. Eagles are gonna need not just quality but quantity of picks this year to mitigate a relatively quiet free agency period, so I think they'll try to get a couple extra mid round picks somehow to add some more depth. Like another RB if Gainwell leaves and another TE somewhere.
