Yes in regards to keeping the team the exact same players - won't happen, many of the one year prove it contracts will want to be rewarded and if you want to keep them that all comes from the same piggy bank & cap space.

Last time they gave in to those one year prove it guys it really didn’t work out well. It was good the Saints paid Robinson in 2017 and not the Eagles, because after that season he turned to crap. Then you have Alshon being hurt all the time. Might be better to just get another batch on one year hungry guys and let someone else pay they old group.

It would solve two immediate issues this off-season with a possible RG replacement and needed swing tackle. Plus the added benefit of being Johnson's long term replacement. If that happens then Seumalo’s Cap requirement can be redirected to another position. For every action there is a balancing reaction.

The problem with signing a bunch of guys to a one year prove it contract and then they over deliver on their promises and the team let's them go because they never wanted to spend money on the guy they had promised it makes future players not one to come to the Eagles.

I’m sure players will come to Philly so long as they have the cap money to pay them especially if their prove it deal in Philly leads to a big contract somewhere.

Yeah they said the same sheet 6 yrs ago. Also who said the eagles promised them anything?

I completely disagree. From the player’s perspective a prove it contract is all about having an opportunity to "deliver on their promises.” If the team situation is such that players can do exactly that, then future players will want to do the same … and feel confident that by joining the Eagles they will maximize their chances of doing so.

CJGJ and Hargrave Looking at the full list of Eagles free agents starting with Joseph and Sun who will more than likely be on Howie’s Bell Squad, which allows them to avoid having to go through Training Camp, and also more than likely have a shorter season of games, repeating what they did this year. Next we have Epps and White both of whom are potentially replaceable internally … Epps with rBlankenship and White with Dean/Elliss, so they are pretty close to the bottom of my priority list for being resigned. Graham, Cox and Kielce all fit into a category of their own. If they want to come back, and the price is right (heavily weighted toward incentive payments) then I’ll be happy to have them back. Cox wouldn’t have been in that category based on his play in the first half of the year, but the Cox we have seen on the field in the second half of the year has been outstanding, especially in the larger context of the D-Line as a unit. But the price for Cox has to be right. Another factor with respect to Cox is what the plan is (if anything) for Noah Elliss. I believe both Sanders and Seumalo are gone. Seumalo might be back if Kelce decides not to return, but I don’t see any way Seumalo is back if Kelce decides to play one more year. Call that the Jurgens complication. That leaves CJGJ and Bradberry and Hargrove and Edwards. If money weren’t an issue I would love to have CJGJ and Bradbury and Hargrove all back, but money is an issue, and in the case of Bradberry age is also a consideration. I believe Howie will negotiate with Bradberry, but also talk to Cameron Sutton, Byron Murphy, Rock Ya-Sin, Patrick Peterson, Jamel Dean, and possibly other CBs looking to be a one-year "prove it” player like Bradberry was this year. Such a player would would be about $10 million a year cheaper … with hopefully as good production as Bradberry has delivered this season. Edwards can be replaced, but if the price is right I’m not averse to keeping him. CJGJ and Hargrave are the priorities on that list, and CJGJ’s recent comments about how much happier he is here than in New Orleans is a good sign.
January 19, 20232 yr I hate to see any of these guys go. But this is what happens when you have a ton of talent. I wish they would all come back. Also I think Kelce might come back at a cheaper rate. But maybe he decided to hang it up.

I wouldn't be but I think we're going to have a real problem having a successful year. "Why?", you say - well here's the list of interrelated problems Howis is facing. We have about $12M in cap space including this year's carryover We have to sign our quarterback and it's going to be a mega-deal which will eat up that cap space. Of our 17 free agents (not counting Suh and Joseph) 11 are starters - Sanders, Kelce, Seumalo, Cox, Hargrave, BG, White, Edwards, Epps, CGJ, and Lovato. We only have replacements ofr 3 of those starters on the roster - Dean fo one of the LB's, Blankenship for one of the Safeties, and Jurgens for Kelce. The other free agents are backups - Minshew, Scott, Dillard, Pascal, and Ward. They will all need to be replaced along with the three backup positions above. The cap situation means few or no free agents including our own, meaning we have to rely on the draft BUT, We only have 6 draft picks and 2 of those are in the 7th round. The high priced guys still here (Johnson and Slay) have already been restructured Howie is good and maybe even great, but the deck is stacked against him here. What would you do?

January 24, 20232 yr Got the best GM in the biz who will parlay a Superbowl victory to fill in the gaps if need be. While killing it in the next 2 drafts and having this figured out by the time Hurts contract gets crazy high. The key here is we found our Top 3 QB and he will recruit peeps as well. It's all good. Enjoy this coming Superbowl victory. 🍻

To the players that are up for a contract after this season, I would simply argue with them that while they can get paid significantly more on another team due to this year's success wouldn't they rather even if it's for another one year contract stay with a team that has a legit chance of repeating and winning another Super Bowl. Yes I am now predicting that the Eagles will defeat the 49ers more than the two point spread & they will defeat the Chiefs or Bengals should they upset by two touchdowns!

Sometimes we worry too much. The Chiefs lost Hunt, and eventually Hill and are still a top team. Heck the Seahawks lost Wilson and got better while the Broncos got Wilson and became much worse. Sometimes we can get a little over the top with our fears. Heck even in 2019 the Eagles made it to the playoffs and were basically a drop pass away from the Championship Game.
