Bigsby is looking pretty good in recent weeks, but aside from that, I dislike almost every move he's made that wasn't a draft pick. I don't think this move is terrible in and of itself, but I don't like it if DeJean moves to full time outside corner. He's so Fing good in the slot.Getting Fred Johnson back was good. The Houston moves all amounted to nothing either direction.
4 hours ago4 hr Love DeJean in the slot but he seems like the kind of dude that will be elite no matter where you stick him.

4 hours ago4 hr The way I see it Mitchell-DeJean on the outside and Carter in the slot is a viable and respectable option if you can't perform as a unit with DeJean in the slot. It raises your DB floor imo
4 hours ago4 hr I'm not convinced this means DeJean is bumping outside. Nickerson was the backup slot, and he's back on the PS. I think we have a competition between Carter and Bennett in a weird way. If Vic likes Bennett more, he's outside and Coop is in the slot. If he likes Carter more, then Coop goes outside. Given the miniscule cost to acquire Carter, he's not a lock to be a starter. Arguably we gave up more for Bennett (Booker, who played real snaps) than Carter (Metchie and moving back less than 10 spots in the draft).

4 hours ago4 hr fwiw it's 2027 so who knows but the Jets 7th is probably very close to the Eagles 6th in pick value. It's really next to nothing in difference
4 hours ago4 hr Word on the street with Carter. Signed the big deal after a really good year in 2023 and then has been off and on injured since. Been replaced by Jason Brownlee and they're moving on. Eagles hoping he reverts to 2023 Michael Carter. Jets are awful so it's a good cheapish bet I guess. And Metchie was a nonfactor here.
4 hours ago4 hr Metchie going to have a frank gore like video highlight of his best times with the eagles
4 hours ago4 hr So feels like Howie said it’s too late or too costly to get a real outside corner, so we’re punting it until next year. DeJean will play outside because there’s no choice, and it will be an emphasis on the offseason.
4 hours ago4 hr Metchie was definitely one of the lesser if not least of the Alabama WRs that have come out in recent years, but even with that I'm surprised he's as underwhelming as he's been. Like not even able to hardly get any snaps. Couldn't stick in in Houston or here. Certainly won't with the Jets and that disaster of a QB situation. I believe Darius Cooper got more snaps than Metchie vs the Giants. I tried looking up snap counts they all say 0 for Cooper, which certainly isn't right because he drew a PI on one play and was on there for several plays. If so, that's pretty telling the UDFA got more snaps than Metchie.
4 hours ago4 hr Reading Jets fan reactions they seem to feel like Carter was great in 2023 but has drastically fallen off since then.Given the contract this guy has it seems apparent that Roseman intends for him to play the slot and DeJean to go outside which contradicts what Vic said he wants to do earlier this week. Another move by Roseman on the defensive side that seems to be one that Vic had little to no say in.I get Roseman is the GM but I feel like his ego is getting in the way of taking in the thoughts of the best DC we have had since JJ when it comes to the players on defense.

DeJean will play outside because there’s no choice, and it will be an emphasis on the offseason.Unless they swap Ringo for another CB in another deal. Some fantasy trades were Eagles trading Ringo for Woolen and swapping picks.I'm crossing my fingers there may be another move to drop. If Denzel Ward gets traded for like a 4th or something, that would be irritating.

4 hours ago4 hr Guys, this guy legitimately cost nothing. We saved $57k on the 2025 cap by swapping Metchie. We likely have $1.384mm in 2026 dead money, and given how bad the Jets are, probably only moved back 10 spots in the 2027 draft. He's not guaranteed to even be active on game day. Low cost/risk, high potential upside. No brainer move that doesn't foreclose anything.
4 hours ago4 hr Highest paid slot CB in the league. Might piss off DeJean with how much Eagles are going to be paying his backup.

I like this as a 1st trade. Need more.
