Definitely worse than the Texans roster.

He clearly wanted a warm climate in a dome preferably, close as possible to home. We check 0 of those boxes.

Seumalo plays RG unless they draft a Green, Kinnard, Parham, Zion, etc. He's your top IOL backup if the rookie beats him out. 

Seumalo can play all 5 OL positions and not look incompetent. That is worth quite a lot but doesn't include being a starter.

Yeah. I dont get the shock, and all the paople saying goodbye. The tweet that says both sides are working on a possible return makes it pretty clear this was just a release and re-sign for cap purposes.

 

I think this is a very optimistic narrative being put out by the Eagles to get ahead of it.  All you need is one desperate team willing to pay more than the Eagles.

I said it the other day but it feels relevant again, I really think Travis Jones DT from UCONN is one of our 1st rd picks. Read up on him 

Would be a reach

Leal is now projected into the 2nd round.  

Didn’t watch A&M much and have heard you bring him up before. You a fan?

We're very obviously trading for Hunter and sliding Graham inside. Obviously.

Super obvious. Duh.

Might be around in the 2nd.

I really like him. Actually? I really like more than a few of the DT's this year.

Went from top 10 or so to out of the first

Disagree, don’t think you can say a guy is necessarily a reach in this draft with there being real no consensus in rankings among teams this year. Can’t remember if it was Jordan Reid or Dane Brugler or both that said Jones is real possibility to go in the 1st.

Bring in Ioannidis on the cheap and draft a DT. Let Fletch go elsewhere. Thanks.

I’d like to see this happen.  
 

funny how the Saints were able to manage their cap in some way without having to cut bait like everyone thought they would and the Eagles cut their starting DT to apparently help with the cap. 

Howie is a genius.

At least that’s what I read on a tweet.  

 

Dont lie, you can't read, which makes this post moot...

 

A first needs to be used to replace cox

Man, he has really slid down the draft board it seems. 

Looks like they were shopping him for a day 2 pick. Guess they didn't get any offers.

OK, this makes a ton more sense. Clearly OTC and Sportrac didn't have the latest details.

If the Eagles want to re-sign him I think they are being way too cute about it

I wanted to do that whether he was here or not. 

Wouldn't hate double dipping at DT in the draft this year even in the early rounds. Something like Wyatt or Davis in round 1 and Leal/Jones/Hall/Winfrey day 2.

If we take two DTs that close together when we already have two starting caliber DTs on the team and an entire defense full of holes, I'm going to lose my mind.

Anyone have any rough guess at to where we are at under the cap?

I’m kinda indifferent deferent to the Fletcher Cox news. I guess I hope he comes back on a cheap deal, but he should go ring chase with the Chargers. 

As for striking out on WR, I wonder if Van Jefferson is available for trade. 

I wonder how much of it was driven by his dislike for Gannon's scheme.  

The magic words were "$18M guaranteed at 4PM" - which suggests that some of that "dead money" really isn't dead.

We'll see when the smoke clears what the real cap hit turns out to be.

From how he explains it, it seems like they did him kind of dirty
