March 17, 20232 yr Not a bad deal, not that much guaranteed, it could be easily a two-year deal with not much dead cap during the last year.

You’re the guy who said that DeVonta Smith wasn’t any better than Greg Ward, so no one really takes you seriously when it comes to player evaluations.

March 17, 20232 yr The Eagles and Howie keep rolling. He’s calling guys bluffs, and still collecting names even as basic fillers. Somehow got Slay and Bradbury to return. Howie is getting the job done.
March 17, 20232 yr What interests me is whether it is in reality a 2 year or even 1 year deal. The guaranteed money is pretty much what his dead cap would have been had he been released. So it wouldn't surprise me if the Eagles were able to get out of it relatively easily next year. That's important if they take a corner early.

You missing Chip Kelly or something? 😂

If Howie has one of his typical drafts, don't be surprised if it's a sub .500 season. Point being, you can't sustain a winning tradition relying on FA signings, because he's horrible at drafting he has to rely on FA. .

If you're relying on draft picks to make an immediate impact you're probably not a contending team. I expect Howie to field another very competitive team that will challenge again for the NFC crown.

That was 2 seasons after the SB win. 2018: 9-7, made the playoffs, won a playoff game. 2019: 9-7, won the division, lost a playoff game. One 4 win season then bounced back and made the playoffs again with a first year starter, then made the Super Bowl for the 2nd time in 6 years. I have been critical of Howie's drafting as well, but if you're not going to deal in reality then come on.

I said "I think", wasn't sure, point I was making is you can't sustain winning by way of poor drafting and using FA to cover your arse

March 20, 20232 yr Just now, EagleVA said: Why should I leave, because I point out player personnel issues and get attacked by all you cheerleaders, sorry, I'm not afraid of pom-poms You said good luck like you're leaving or something lol.
March 20, 20232 yr 6 minutes ago, EagleVA said: I said "I think", wasn't sure, point I was making is you can't sustain winning by way of poor drafting and using FA to cover your arse I was a loud and vocal critic of Howie's drafting. The last 2 years have been improved. They've made the playoffs 5 of the last 6 years. The year they didn't was the year Wentz had a horrific year which led to his trade. 2 years later and they were in the Super Bowl and only lost by 3 points to a perennial contender who had already won a previous Super Bowl. That is actually quite the example of sustained winning. And again, I've hated on Howie's drafting over the years. At the moment, he seems to have figured out to stick to the board, don't reach, pick positions he has more success with like linemen, pick from stronger schools and guys who have won championships. And he's supplemented well in free agency and trades. They have some key positions to replace and get ready to develop players to take over for older veterans. They already have done that the last 2 years, and this draft will tell us more if he's sticking to these philosophies or not.
