cunninghamtheman Posted July 5, 2022 Author Share Posted July 5, 2022 We are paying Malik Jackson over 9 mil this season….but can’t afford 14 mil a season for Marcus Williams. If you can’t see anything wrong with this….I don’t know what to tell you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had so many needs that to think we could plug all of them in one year is absurd! Getting more draft capital for 2023 was absolutely the right thing to do. We can **** and complain all we want that we did not resolve 1-2 positions to our liking, but this team is far better than the one that lost to TB in the play-offs. 1. Which S in this draft at pick 16 or later are you trading this package for.... 2023 1st, 2024 2nd and Dean ( who was drafted with the 3rd round pick that we would have had to give Tennessee if we didn't trade with the Saints. You have hindsight now... you are the GM after the fact ... tell me which S in THIS YEAR'S draft you trade all that for? 2. Eagles have the cap space ... still have over $12 mil left at the moment, if they wanted to sign any safety. Nice try, but cap isn't your thing.

A far better team that’s still limited by these factors I mentioned. See my response... you are GM and can trade back all that we got from the Saints for any S after pick 16... you "call it" now ... which S are you doing that for?

The Eagles could have signed the safety if they wanted . You think the Saints are in better cap position? Basically that is what you are saying...that the Saints were able to sign a guy because they were in better cap position. Which is complete BS.

We have over $12 mil in cap space... Marcus Williams cap hits for 2022 and 2023 are less than $12 mil combined. We could have easily signed him if they wanted. But maybe Baltimore is wrong in how they put together his contract... which is backloaded... which every team does. But Ham just blames the Eagles for doing so.

joemas6 Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Yet Dallas is the organization the Eagles need to model themselves after.. the way they co contracts and handle the cap..... it has enabled then to be such major players in free agency ... lol.

Then they obviously did not want him that badly. He already is not practicing for some injury. I think the Eagles like who they have at safety right now. Epps did a good job and they feel he is ready to step up. Who are we to judge? We are not there every day...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stine Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Plus they will have less pressure now that our LB's and CB's are much better. If we can rush the passer this season, I think the Defense will be fine. I still look at the offense for my question marks to be honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As always barring injuries i think we have the best O line in football which snould make Hurts a better QB The running game is a concern but thet O line will help there also.

cunninghamtheman Posted July 5, 2022 Author Share Posted July 5, 2022 Don’t know if I’m totally sold on Davis being worthy of trading up for. Had other thoughts of my Big Board. We are facing a long list of top RBs THIS season. Were terrible against the run last year. So he’ll help immediately there. Jergens wasn’t my choice in round two either. 1 hour ago, joemas6 said: We have over $12 mil in cap space... Marcus Williams cap hits for 2022 and 2023 are less than $12 mil combined.

Stud OL, # 4 ranked WR group, good TE.... can't imagine you are talking QB and RB....lol. pretty much where 99% of us are.
