Eagles release CB Darius Slay

[garyv]

Gilmore
Slay
Odell
Hopkins
Wagner

We are loaded

We don't have Wagner yet and listening to Jane Slater sounds like after signing LVE maybe not at all

 

[WillieBeamen]

You realize why he is being released right?.. some of our fans I don't know about. Dudes cap is 26mil!? Lol

Lol no that is not the reason

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

A Rhesus monkey could be better than Jerry lol.

I just have to throw it out there that’s the first thing Howie fans want to say….he’s better than Jerry….he is. Except in the draft.

No cap issues at all with the eagles lol..

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

LOL you’re really dense
The Eagles have a competent FO that understands what to do
They have released Slay
They have 2 rd 1 picks and will take CB and DL with that
Talking to you is like talking to a 5 year old

 

[Cowboys93]

I aint gonna lie


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

I’m happy we got Gilmore but Slay and Diggs would’ve definitely had some swagger

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Witherspoon or Gonzalez seem more likely

I agree. Porter seems more like a top 25 pick.

Freed up 17.5m$

But they I was told they would keep everyone

Howie would figure it out!

Meanwhile everyone was bashing Jerry when he said they went all in for this year.

Fast forward a few weeks, so far, they have lost...

their top 3 tacklers on their team last year, a pro bowl corner, a pro bowl DT, a pro bowl RB (assuming he leaves after they signed 2 backs), etc.

Here comes the Howie Roseman defense team..

 

[reddyuta]

Slay was the best Corner. Weird

they got 2 1st rd picks.

 

[Coogiguy03]

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.

Porter

Freed up 17.5m$

Eagles release Slay and you come here lol.

 

[J12B]

Eagles have lost a lot of talent. Not gonna be easy to replace everyone in the draft.

 

[Ken]

Freed up 17.5m$

A little over 4 million, unless I am missing something....Cap Hit minus dead cap....

[Carson]

This just means CGJ, Cox and somebody else returns later today

 

[Aerolithe_Lion]

Eagles release Slay and you come here lol.

ive been here

 

[bottleKids]

If they lose CJGJ, that's a really big blow. But it's been quiet on that front and Roseman may be shuffling the deck to try to bring him back.

I hope CJGJ wants the moon and some team will be willing to give it to him... not sure how Phi can. But Howie is Howie sadly..

I can understand as a long standing card carrying Jerry Garret and Dak apologist you have a tough time with facts

sportrac is good for looking at individual contract details, but is not very sophisticated when reflecting how the contract affects the team as a whole. That’s where OvertheCap is better:

On the right side right above the cap hits, change the slider from pre-June 1st to post-June1st. That’s how we designated him

 

[StarOfGlory]

Interesting that they resign a lesser corner in Bradberry, and release the superior player who was already under contract.

He’s not really a lesser corner though. He was not good the second half of the year, and is older to boot.
