But again, Howie Roseman continues to leverage high picks from GMs for players not in the Eagles future plans.
As I've said for years, a GM with a business/negotiating background taking advantage of GMs with scouting or personnel backgrounds.
Competitive advantage.
A true mjor overpay, but tpdays moves are 100% to address the Bills running game in the playoffs. Easier to do when all things being equal, you will be the 1 seed and expect good weather playoff games. Its why I think a Josh Downs is the move we should make. Be able to score 30 through the air (DJ/Downs/Kincaid/Shakir) or the ground (rain/snow/wind - current roster). Not afraid of our current defensive makeup (but for depth).
@NateGearySports Urgency?!? He has spent $1.53 Billion since 2022 - easily the most of any perennial contending team. Yes more than the Eagles and KC and the Rams....Only outspent by the Browns (and that's 1 contract). The issue is cap - not urgency.
Only in Canada can a person who works their ass off 40 hours a week pay more in taxes than an “artist” who tells “stories”!
Work your ass off to paint a houses = pay FULL taxes
Paint a picture of a maple leaf = $45k tax break
Sauce and Hamilton have the same # of First team All Pros; Parsons has one more than Hamilton (and when traded was consensus top 2 NFL defender); Garrett had 5 and a consensus top 1 NFl defender when traded (and he went for a 1+2+3. The idea that 2 firsts wouldn't be the going rate - well that is a you issue.
@YardsPerPass If you are going to do anything but QB sneak to A/B gap left side, you should do whatever it is to the right side (speed option etc) as they literally have an end outside the safety. There is no chance they defend Cook Allen on the right side
@JeremyWGR You want to go all in? Pry Hamilton away from Baltimore. 2 firsts (Parsons/Simmons/Gardner). Absurd as the Bill spick too late? Add in another piece. But the Ravens are staring at a f ull rebuild.
The thought experiment here. Simmons/Gardner/Parsons - all all pro, on contract and prime of career. Team getting picks largely considered 'winners' of trade. Why would the Ravens not consider two from the Bills (plus a mid player) for Hamilton? Everyone would say no way - but see above. The answer - not a rebuild. Are we sure? $53MM over in 27 - only way is to extend their great but will have started 50% of games over 2 seasons - new coaching staff and roughly $40MM in dead cap to get rid of 4 obvious cuts next year. And committed to Henry/Stanley for big positional money for at least another year.
