He's been a very good number 2 receiver apart from that. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have liked to see him in our new D Mills is not nearly as bad as a lot of people make out on this board. He's not a star and has his faults, but he did an okay job at safety and was a legitimate if not a particularly good outside corner. Now we need both a safety and outside corner pretty badly. Thanks Jalen - you were a starter on our only Super Bowl winning team - glad you got paid. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will always state my problem never really is with letting players go. My problem comes when they don’t replace the player.

Ritchie Grant, Paris Ford, Andre Cisco are a few names to watch out for. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do need to prioritize S soon. Not much in the secondary beyond Slay and maybe Wallace. Maybe Maddox is a decent slot CB (or FS) ... maybe. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to draft 2 CBs and a safety at a minimum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagles should sign someone like Ahkello Witherspoon, William Jackson, Mike Hilton and/or Malik Hooker in that 2nd tier of FA if the asking price is right. Going into the draft with that many question marks in the defensive backfield is never a good thing. You don’t want to force a pick, especially in rounds 2 and 3 assuming they’ll use their first on an offensive weapon. Especially at corner, the learning curve is steep. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really liked Witherspoon coming out of college and was a little disappointed we didn't draft him. I'd be happy with Witherspoon, Hilton and Hooker if that were affordable. If they could bring in those guys or a combination of those then that would go a long way to addressing some of the issues. Don't get me wrong it doesn't turn things around completely but as you say it takes the pressure off of having to force picks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
