Going to be a sad year for Eagles fans. Thank God for 2017, because we're going to be even worse this season.

Really feel like they need to trade back in round one to get more picks on day two and quality picks for next year. Day three picks just isn't going to cut it.

I didn't take much from the Lurie press conferences he gave after the season and when he spoke after hiring Sirianni, but the biggest thing he said was that they are in a rebuild phase. That can happen relatively quick in the NFL, but I wouldn't expect above .500 records for this team in the next two seasons. This team has a severe lack of talent and the talent they do have are either older and/or injury prone. The only way they surprise people and win more games than they should is if Hurts is the real deal or they hit on a major player in the draft.

Pitts if drafted at 6 would not be a TE, It means they have the confidence that he has the ability to be a WR. 

No ish sherlock ... you should back track on these posts before you comment because that is EXACTLY what I eluded to.

Apparently Danielle Hunter wants out of Minnesota. Cap folks, is it at all plausible to cut Barnett and aquire Hunter? He's signed through 2024 I believe and only 26. Would be all for it, depending on price. Perhaps Barnett could go to Minnesota in a deal 

Just spit balling ideas. Don't expect it to happen and don't take it very seriously.

Truly believe we won't be good for the next 3/4 years at minimum.

The Eagles shouldn't be in on any early FA signings.  

probably the best thing the eagles should do, wait for cheap big names.

Hunter wants new money, so I don't think we could fit that on our cap.

Depends on the contract, but yeah. I know we have no space.

Gonna be a rough go for a while unless Hurts is secretly Steve Young.

My guy is Anthony Walker Jr. Let him wear the green dot in Gannon's D. Also really like multi use CB Mike Hilton. But Howie is biased towards Maddox so I doubt it...

Eagles needs:

Starting WR: 1-2

Starting CB: 2-3

Starting S: 2

Starting/backup OT: 1

Starting/backup OG/C: 1-2

StartIng LB: 2

Potential starter/backup DE: 1-2

Backup DT: 1

Backup TE: 1

Backup QB: 1

P: 1

This is assuming Ertz is gone and Jalen can hold his own. That will take 2 drafts minimum if they have excellent drafts, which is highly unlikely. They won’t have any significant FA signings until next year at the earliest. I would say they aren’t sniffing the playoffs until 2023 season if we’re lucky.

In a vacuum, very. We would essentially get him at a 3 year 36M deal. But they would have to cut Barnett before Wednesday or include him in the deal.

It's weird seeing the lack of speculation around Eagles FA moves. No Howie specials, no trades, just a strange silence.  A comeuppance for the constant giving of bad contracts.

This makes me laugh

Corey F'n Davis?  What the actual F!!!  Howie needs to be fired immediately.  Let's add an average receiver to our average receiving core when we have no money.
