11 hours ago11 hr Bo and EJ both believe that AJ Brown will not be on the team anymore one year from today.

10 hours ago10 hr Just now, jamiller said:Shut up, Travis.Kelce has always had sideline tantrums and he is older now. Very hypocritical take
10 hours ago10 hr 6 minutes ago, RememberTheKoy said:Bo and EJ both believe that AJ Brown will not be on the team anymore one year from today.Yeah I don’t think he’s going to be. If we win the SB again then it’s almost guaranteed he won’t be as at that point I think he’ll want to go and pad the stats to stake his HoF claim.
10 hours ago10 hr It won't happen because he'll go early-mid RD1, but WR Makai Lemon out of USC is going to be unstoppable at the next level.
10 hours ago10 hr 10 minutes ago, pgcd3 said:That probably is true even from a cap allocation and getting younger standpoint.I always figured he or Barkley would be one of the first two to go once they start having to pay the D and pay the O less, even without all the unhappiness. I thought he'd be here next year at least though, now I'm not so sure.

Something to try anyway.

Something to try anyway.Yeah Pick 32 next draft is almost certainly Lane's replacement or an EDGE.Maybe if they trade AJ the future WR2 is already on the roster. Dotson or Metchie at a reasonable price tag. Don't hate the idea. And like you said, they won't get targets anyways lol
10 hours ago10 hr AJ Brown isn't going anywhere. He has a 50m cap hit and the Eagles highly value him. And it's quite misleading to say Bo and EJ didn't think he'd be here next year, they were doing a game where based on right now if they thought he'd be here next year and both leaned slightly no, but weren't confident in it and were influenced by the overblown media narrative.
10 hours ago10 hr So AJ's contract is another one where Howie may have broken the websites. Here's a kind of guess as to where we are. He was paid a $20,125,000 signing bonus with his extension in 2024 -- amortizing over 5 years, there's $12,075,000 of dead money if we trade him this offseason. He also got a $28,580,000 option bonus this year that will have $22,864,000 of dead money. His 2026 compensation is fully guaranteed, but that $29 million is someone else's problem. So the extension alone creates $35 million in dead cap. The question is how much money is left over to be amortized from his 4 year, $100 million deal that started in 2022. He had a $23,474,470 singing bonus in 2022 that should have 1 year left in 2026 to burn -- $4.7 million. That gets us to $39.6mm of dead money. There's likely more as I am guessing he had option bonuses as well that are still burning off.Basically, OTC's $43.4mm may be correct, but Spotrac is way off it seems at only $20.5 million.I don't see us taking over $40 million in dead cap to sell AJ at lowest value. I would also think the number is higher than OTC's $43mm.

10 hours ago10 hr 2 minutes ago, RLC said:They both said it wasn't media driven.The frustration isn't media driven, that's very real. But there has never been any indication he doesn't want to be here or they don't want him here. That has always been fake news. In fact, the opposite. AJ Brown has had episodes of frustration the last two years and every time a team calls, the Eagles immediately tell them he's not available. He has a big cap hit if moved, he's still young, Lurie loves passing, and he's beloved in that building. It's not happening.

I would also think the number is higher than OTC's $43mm.It's definitely breaking the websites. It's all just how each one interprets his yearly option bonuses and who pays for it. It's basically the same thing that happened with Bryce Huff where it would show massive dead cap but it assumed Eagles were paying the option when in reality they were able to get out of some if not all of it (I don't feel like looking back at the exact amount but he's only about a combined $20M in dead money this year and next).AJ next year has a non guaranteed option bonus of $27.4M which they obviously wouldn't pay if they trade him that I'm just guessing OTC may be assuming we pay. Either way, Howies structure just doesn't work on any type of free website and both their numbers should be taken with a grain of salt. They are basically trying to interpret Mandarin using a free trial of Duolingo.

They are basically trying to interpret Mandarin using a free trial of Duolingo.His 2026 comp became guaranteed on the 3rd day of the 2025 league year. But I assume that moves to the buyer. Dead money isn't that complicated -- cash paid less charges taken. In 2024 he got $20.125 of a singing bonus, and we only will have charged 40% of it (20% each in 2024 and 2025), leaving $12.075mm. Then in 2025 he got $28.580mm in an option bonus and we only charged 20%, leaving $22.864mm. So those 2 alone are ~$35mm, and there's definitely still money left to be charged from his original deal. There's no way it's only $20mm in dead money.
