Another important contract coming soon: Tyler Smith

Roseman didn't waste any time. If Smith was on the Eagles he'd be locked up already too.
Hmmm… considering they have to have 3 seasons before they can renegotiate and the new league year hasn’t even started yet that would be interesting!
 
I’d like to see the FO get ahead of a re-signing for a change.
They are not getting ahead on purpose. The moment they sign him they have to take that money out of their bank accounts and either give it to the player immediately or put the guaranteed money in an escrow account. In both cases they do not want to do that because they are a cheap organization.
 
Steele actually missed the last couple games of 2022 (along with both playoff games) and they still paid him that fall coming off the injury. He had another year left so they could have easily made him play it out.
Ok I stand corrected. I mean healthy or not I didn’t get it because I didn’t see it but I trusted this front office saw something in him to get the deal early. Right idea just wrong player.
 
Dickerson is better than Tyler Smith. Dickerson is the Eagles Zack Martin, and he has the biggest upper arms I have ever seen.

I do not think Tyler Smith deserves the same money Dickerson is getting from the Eagles.
 
You also have to remember that Tyler needs to be willing to sign an extension early. If i were him, or any player for that matter, I'd wait to see how much the market goes up for my services before signing.

Howie Roseman is Satan. He'd find a way, lol.

Agents don’t care when.

As long as the money is right.
 
I hope he gets out of here. Plays somewhere he has a chance.
 
Tyler's next season will be his fourth on his four-year deal. He is currently taking up 1.55% of our cap. His original deal is 4 years/$13.389,123. He doesn't become an UFA until 2027.

Tyler is a top O-lineman in the league, and by far our best player on the O-line. Heck, he's one of our best players period. I really hope the Jones Boys can get an extension done this year. The last thing we need is for our front office to somehow screw up and let his next contract signing drag out the way we have become accustomed to seeing with our best players. If we go the franchise route, the projected 2025 franchise tag number for a lineman is estimated to be $23,049,000 (no exact figure can be had until the 2025 cap is finalized) which comes out to be 8.3% of the total cap.

For comparison, Landon Dickerson signed a 4-year/$84 million extension. By age 31 he begins four void years (the first one being a UFA year), but many OG's are still quite good into their mid-30's, the years covering his void years. If Dickerson keeps his current level of play, Roseman probably just resigns him, and for now has it set up so Dickerson doesn't exceed 5.36% of the total cap in his highest paid year.

Will our front office masterminds figure out how to keep our best o-lineman without having to go through another round of dragged-out contract negotiations?
Another first round bust as we were trying to draft a starting LT now playing guard.

Id try to trade him.

The contract he will receive compared to where you can draft a compareable replacement is just nowhere near competition.

We have a fifth year option the team will absolutely be picking up

. Only 50M of Dickerson's contract is gauranteed. So, they can get out after the 2026 season.

HE is on the way to becoming a HOF player if he keeps his current play up for another five or six years.
anyone thinking drafting a potential HOF player is a bust is beyond help

People think Guard is just a simple plug and play position that you can draw names out of a hat to find starters. When you find a Larry Allen you dont trade him just because hes a Guard.
