    At this point, Nick may overpay.

    I really don’t think it was Saquon/Wilkins or bust for us.

    I’m really glad we didn’t overpay for either player and hopefully we can make a mid-level splash on some guys. (Leonard Williams, DaQuon Jones, Justin Jones at DT alone) we know all the other RBs still available there.

    The draft will definitely allow for depth and development help.

    Paying 15Ms for a RB in 2024 is comical. If the position requires some level of investment Derrick Henry was always a better fit for this team. At this point you could sign Austin Ekeler to a team friendly deal and I'd bet his raw stats would be in line with all of the "big names" due to the system versatility.

    Seems like Nick has a line in the sand on his offers that everyone else is beating.

    More one year prove it deals for guys like Ridley I guess.

    Not a good idea. We don't have to pay CJ until another 4 years.

    The Eagles still have Nick Sirriani as a HC. Dude does absolutely nothing except make an ass
    Of himself.

    Seems like Nicky Boy still can't sign anyone for more than a year or two.

    Ain't gonna land difference makers that way, Nick. Contributors, maybe, but you're going to have to hit on them year in and year out.

    Ain't no way to do business.


    Hope he puts his big boy pants on and starts offering some 3 or 4 year deals.

    Should've just gone after Swift from the start if you're not going to pay Barkley. Oh well... go after Henry
