Procus Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 https://theeagleswire.usatoday.com/2020/04/22/philadelphia-eagles-nfl-draft-salary-cap-space/ Quote Eagles have the 3rd-most salary cap space heading into 2020 NFL Draft Glenn Erby 10 hours ago Howie Roseman was recently named one of the top-five general managers in the NFL and his ability to manipulate the salary cap is a major reason why. Even after acquiring Darius Slay via trade and signing Javon Hargrave, the Eagles currently have the third-most salary cap space out of 32 NFL teams heading into the draft. Approximately $9 million will be set aside to cover rookie wages, while Roseman will likely look to carry significant cap space into the 2020 season to use on extensions or possible trades. According to Over The Cap, most of the Eagles salary cap is allocated on the offensive side of the ball, while the linebacker position is the least important, as the Birds’ current group of linebackers under contract have cap figures under $900,000, and their cap figures average $773,661. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeathByEagle Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Im sure they will end the season with most of that cap savings to carry over into 2021 which they are already projected over 20 plus mill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but getting rid of Desean and Alshon is almost 13 million in cap savings right there and if Kelce retires, that's another 10 million. So that's 23 million right there and....if they roll the 27 million over they will be more than fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

time2rock Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 Howie’s ability to manipulate the cap has never been in question. If only his talent evaluation abilities were on the same level. Anyway, tonight is a clean slate. Top of the 1st ... 0-0. Let’s hope for a lead off HR! The time is now for him to begin showing the NFL world everything he has learned regarding that 2nd ability and restock the roster with some promising young talent ... hopefully adding a difference-maker or two in the process. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
