Eagles release CB Darius Slay

[Stash]

Gilmore
Slay
Odell
Hopkins
Wagner

We are loaded

Well one of us clearly is…

 

[HungryLion]

I agree. But people wan tot tell me how great Howie is. Alright. Let's see how he gets out of this mess and make his team better.

Howie has won a Super Bowl and been to another in the last 5 years.


Even if the eagles have a down year or two as they clear cap space we can’t pretend that he isn’t a good GM.

Good that means the Eagles will probably have to go cornerback at 10. I was afraid they would get the Carter or the Texas running back.

If Carter is there at 10, bet the house that they'll take him.

 

[Risen Star]

The Cowboys have already had conversations with Slay. They know what he wants. The trade for Gilmore means they passed. He's not coming to Dallas but at least he's out of Philadelphia.

 

[Cowboy_svt]

Naw we don't watch y'all damaged goods we saw how Ty Hilton beat him on 3rd and 30. NO thanks. Unless for the vet. minimum.

while holding him too

 

[Carson]

Agreed. They love draft the trenches

 

[Creeper]

He was due $17.5 million from the Eagles in Salary ($17MM) and workout bonus. With pro-rated bonus he was a $26 million CAP hit. His immediate release only saves the Eagles $3.7 million against the CAP but as a June 1 designated cut he saves them $17.5 million.

I aint gonna lie


Id rather have signed Slay, than Trade a pick for Gilmore

Notice, they didn't release him until after we traded for Gilmore. Lol

 

[Joe Realist]

Who is the best corner on the market because they are about to sign that person

 

[Jimbo123]

They weren't taking a RB with the top 10 pick in the draft. Carter I can still see.

They'll take Carter or a CB at 10 then move up ahead of the Cowboys to take Robinson with 30.

 

[Joe Realist]

And they will use that money for CJ Gardner Johnson

 

[JohnsKey19]

Cox is not even close to what he used to be. Gardner-Johnson is the guy the need to keep.

 

[Proof]

I aint gonna lie

i’m not so sure. roughly the same age, looking for more money, and the beneficiary of a stacked defense. plus if i’m not mistaken at one point he said he’d never play for the cowboys so if it’s *** me it’s *** you lol

 

[zrinkill]

No cap issues at all with the eagles lol..

21 million dead cap number, only frees up 5 ish million.

I glad you guys are right ..... I was just scared to believe it.

Our front office blew me away with the Gilmore trade ...... Made my day and gives me hope that something has changed.

 

[Jimbo123]

That guy was bad towards the end of the year. He fell off. We saw some of it our game against them when he got beat on 3rd and 30 and he tried to blame someone else.

Scott got beat on the 3rd and 30 not Slay

I won’t say he’s bad I’m just saying he screws up a lot but only gets praised for the positive. All because of the SB berth. Ok fair enough but they never addressed the fact they couldn’t stop thevl run. Nobody talks about him trading for Robert Quinn. And before you say it…yes he’s better than Jerry.

A Rhesus monkey could be better than Jerry lol.

 

[exciter]

Slay was the best Corner. Weird

Was is the key word!!! It was fairly obvious he was in decline and being protected by their pass rush!

I will go step further. If Carter falls out of the top 5 I think will trade up to get him.
