mcleods took a major cut I know he was hurt this year but damn, looking at it from his side this shyt sucks , as much as I complained about our secondary this years secondary was the worst. McLeod should look at the season a say see I'm worth this money cuz the squad that was out there was straight bullshyt. I'm glad to have him back I tell you that.

damn shyt must have incentives like a mufukka backloaded in that contract

I'm waiting for the official numbers to come out how they did this

But early rumblings were that they converted the salary into a bonus for this years cap

If Howie pulled off some more magic :wow::banderas:

Nick can buy his free agency by giving back a $2m signing bonus. So it becomes a matter of if he's willing to work with Howie and facilitate a trade, or if he's deadset on meeting with teams as a FA.

Did they franchise tag him or picked up his option, im hearing two different things here?

They had to either pick up the option or decline it before they could tag him.

Picking it up leads me to believe Nick's willing to work with them in finding a trade partner, otherwise they would just decline it and tag him to hold him against his will.

Yea, I think they are gonna be forced to franchise tag him ultimately so Foles picking up the option doesnt matter.

But then again u are right, Foles gotta be willing to sign a long term deal once he is traded

Definitely, Nick has all the power here. Even if a team offers two 1st rounders Nick can tell them he doesn't want to sign long term there and kill the deal. Ball is entirely in his court.

if Foles doesnt buy his freedom, i think that means the Eagles and Foles team are playing ball and the Eagles would only trade him to a team he wants to go to
should be interesting tho
