Not Brisker

grr is it time to bring up our old friend Budda Baker and trade for a safety?

They better go get Greenard now. If we see he was traded to another team or the Vikings pull him off the market there really is nothing that can prevent this free agency period from being hot garbage. Doesn't mean they can't have a great draft or a great season, but that would cement this free agency as 🗑️

WTH Howie

Stated $5-6 Million earlier for him would be a steal. Disappointing....he's playing catch up again this offseason. Oooof!

Yes the options to improve the team are dwindling without some big trade. I still find it hard to believe Howie will let the team slide like that but it's not looking good right now.

There would be no excuse for this. This is beyond "we have no room to sign anyone" this would just be pure arrogance. Arrogant Eagles virtually always get burned. Can't remember the last time they completely neglected a position and try to skate by unscathed where it didn't bite them colossally in the ass. Most recently tried to do it at LB in 2023 and it absolutely killed them.

Andre Cisco is coming off injury. Can see Howie bargain basement him

Still time but this offseason has gone very badly on paper starting with the coaching search onward

Don"t worry Howie is saving his money to what I fear is a massive overpay for Jalen Carter. I am not signing him this offseason. Will wait til he proves he's healthy and dominant again. Howie should learn from Cam Jurgens deal. May be best to use JC's money for Coop, Q, Hunt and MO. And Riq if he does well here. Optionality will be key here. Unless JC wants to sign for a bargain I am not signing him right now. This Carter move and what happens here will make or break Howie Roseman IMO. This move worries me like when Sixers signed Embiid to a huge contract. And way too early.

Rodgers 2.0

Ultimately our defense was still good tho anyway if we’re being honest.

Yeah but imagine if he had given him that same contract and they didn't have to compensate for CB2. 30 million too rich for a OLB? Cool. Spend 5 million and improve safety.

Maybe they sign JaJuan Jennings, who is a better WR than Brisker is a safety to address WR depth so they don't have to invest in WR in the draft and then use a pick they likely would have used on WR on Safety. Jennings knows the Shanahan system, would fit well here. Good hands, over the middle catches.

Maybe. Howie had to have something cooking. I still think having Mukaba and a rookie seems crazy and Carter is small

As much as I want safety in the draft, it feels like we will be pigeon holed into OL. Not good. The guy I'm really starting to warm up to is Fano. Shorter arms may drop him into a suitable trade up range. He can play guard and even potentially center. I would not want him at tackle.

While you boast possibly the best trio of CBs in the league, it would be shortsighted to count on Makuba and Michael Carter to start. I wouldn't count on either of them right now. Howie repeating his mistakes from last year if he does that. Need a certifiable vet starter with NFL experience at safety. One at minimum. Then maybe chance it on the other spot.

It wouldn’t be March without Eagles fans panicking about not having a safety.

Build through the draft. Re-sign your stud players. Sign FAs to one year contracts. 🦅😬

I'm shocked Howie let safety dry up like this. Yes you need to draft one, but between Hawkins, Brisker, Nick Cross, there's no reason one couldn't have been identified and signed.

Jones is an odd signing. A sign Carter will play safety?

Well they don't have a safety. Actually need two. Howie back to his old ways and de-valuing the safety position. 5.5 M for Brisker isn't even middle class. It is lower middle class.

Like for absolutely no reason too.

I never thought much of Blankenship so I don’t think the position will be degraded a lot.
