This is where I think having Rod Marinelli around kills us.

YES! Anything near 320 he hates. He wants them 290 so they can get blown off the ball like in the rams game. He wants them to be able to penetrate to get the QB. WOW!

 

[BigD49]

Some pretty hysterical fits being thrown over not giving $10m / year to a guy who's essentially been viewed as a cast off by two teams in the last year...and we're only less than an hour into the legal tampering period...

 

[TwoCentPlain]

At $10M/yr for 3 years, I would rather put that type of money toward Safety Earl Thomas.

 

[TwoCentPlain]

Maybe this $10M/yr for Malik Jackson keeps the Eagles from landing Leveon Bell.

 

[Mr_437]

Typical Eagles. They do believe in stocking that DL tho.

Just sit around and watch teams with talent get better, we will watch and sign later free agents for cheap and wonder why we get beat. If we don’t win the superbowl this year, i sure hope maelik jackson destroys us in every way. Maybe that will show them spending some money in free agency isnt so bad (still plenty of guys out there, but im not counting on signing them)

3 yrs / 10 mill. wow

That's 3 years @ $30 million, $10 million a year, he is not worth that kind of $$$ anymore. They just traded Bennett to the Pats for a bag of peanuts who was a better player making less $$$$.

 

[loublue22]

Are you allowed to do that, just "sign" players from other teams?

Color me skeptical.

deep breathes..i KNOW its important to you to seem right. Its ok.... I don't get too worked up over the numbers on the field. The eyeball test matters more. NEXT.

iggles over paid.

Im surprised they paid that much for him. He’s just not that good, IMO.

He’ll be a solid part of a rotation though.

 

[Kingofholland]

A team makes one signing of a decent 3tech and we're freaking out on day one of the tampering period.

Guess he doesn't have bend

 

[jblaze2004]

eagles always invest in their dline meanwhile we hope to grab scrubs or rely on knuckle heads smh. I don't see why we don't look to upgrade our dline.

Yup, team is built up front. We probably draft someone as well.

Our biggest hole at this very moment might be LB since Hicks is a FA.

 

[dallas72]

He only had 24 tackles and 3.5 sacks not really elite

I definitely like the roster building. LBs are easier to find.

Brandon Graham's deal is only 3.5m$ cap hit this year. Malik's will likely be about 5m$, and most of the money will be in a non guaranteed third year where we can decline his option. Desean is probably similar, we're still sitting at 15+M in cap space.
