Edit: We’re gonna have to pay Nelson Swagholor next year too
Nelly carries a 9.5M cap hit next year- there is NO WAY the eagles pick up his option at that number- if he wont bring that number down.....then ...

Tate is Nelly's insurance policy. Never would have made me believe that up until a few days ago.
Someone in FA will be willing to give Nelly a massive contract give his athletic ability and try to make him a #1 receiver. We have seen it many times over the decades.

Makes me wonder if mack10 or wallace is gonna come back this season. If adams continues this form and clement who i believe aint 100% still and if he gets right (shoutout to whoever said he looks like he running with timbs on) with sproles coming back it will all come together in yerms of the run game
At first i wasabout the trade but now with all the info. Lets get the reps in
And thank god we got a bye this week
cmon bruh....whoelse comes with the snide in hya?
Mack is an interesting case because when he clears he will not be in football shape but he is a special teams ace- I think they may never call him up...just let him heal and come back next season
Im over Sproles to be honest- the few times he ran the ball ..he went nowhere..lil man needs to call it a game

I agree...some fool ass team will do this...altho I bet he would do aight in Seattle. Until he can prove he can beat press coverage consistently, he will always be a slot WR
Riiiiiiiight, thats the thing. He can run freely through any secondary. But how long does it take him before he runs freely. He doesn't have Ochochinco feet. Doesn't have Boldin type hands or strength. nikka gets bodied way too easily. Which is why I was so afraid when JMatt came on board, didn't want to expose him to legit outside corners.
I can see a situation where Nelly feels himself too much and balks and a Howie offer of 5 years 70 mil. And hell, that offer might legit be too much given what he has proven over only one season.

I will admit, like most I was excited when we drafted Aggy because I thought he could play all 3 WR spots. Whats weird is money isnt a little guy, he is strong and in great shape..how come he doenst know how to hand fight or pick up a trick or two to beat press?
5 years 70M is waaay too rich IMHO (altho it depends on the gauranteed money of course) JMatt has looked decent playing outside...he is no TO but he was getting open and holding on to the ball
this spells more trouble for Nelson
They already picked up his 5th year option.Nelly carries a 9.5M cap hit next year- there is NO WAY the eagles pick up his option at that number- if he wont bring that number down.....then ...

correct but the 9.4m isnt guaranteed- so they can release him if he doesnt rework that number

Hell nah, the eagles wont pay that.
Mostly likely they will lock him up with a multiyear extension at a lower cap hit number. Thats how Roseman operates.
Unless Swagholor thinks he can make more in the open market, then he will force the release.
I doubt it tho, his production is not there to make big money.

Yo straight up, the eagles should sign Bruce Irvin.
Fits our scheme and good replacement for Barnett on the rotation.

looks like our game against the saints is getting flexed to a later time
One of Eagles' upcoming games flexed to different time
