DT Fletcher Cox six-year extension worth $103 million with $63M in guarantees, Ian Rapo

[DenCWBY]

Well F Cox just got paid by the Eagles. TR has to be thrilled.

 

[Nightman]

I thought the Eagles killed their cap with Murray, Bradford, Maxwell, Wentz.....etc

63 million guaranteed.

Damn.

Well, the bar for Von Miller just went higher.

I thought the Eagles killed their cap with Murray, Bradford, Maxwell, Wentz.....etc

Whatever money they saved by getting rid of the other players, that just went out the window.

How will they now pay their offensive line?

They were able to unload a lot of it.

Anyway, good signing for them. Underrated player across the league, but we know how good he is.

What offensive line?

 

[DenCWBY]

Just hope Fletch was in it to get paid and now one of those types to get happy, fat and lazy. He's been a thorn for us for a while.

They already paid Peters, Johnson and Kelce

 

[JBS]

We could have had this guy

Many of us wanted him

 

[Howboutdemcowboys31]

Idk if Cox is worth it but he's easily a top 3 DT.

 

[AsthmaField]

How will they now pay their offensive line?

Bubble gum and beer?

 

[Manster68]

What offensive line?

Kelsey, Peters and Johnson are really good when they are healthy. Eventually, their bills are going to come due.

Any idea how long ago?

 

[KingintheNorth]

We could have had this guy

Mary of us wanted him

I still remember you texting me when they traded up and asking who I thought it was for.

I was hoping it was Fletcher and you knew it was for Claiborne.

In retrospect, I would have kept our picks and taken Brockers and Bobby Wagner (the players Stephen said we would have taken). BUT Fletcher would have been the significantly better pick than Claiborne,

Kelce, Johnson and Brooks are signed thru 2020

Peters is signed thru 2018

 

[Knotamus]

The Eagles dumpped a lot of committed money and players on other teams, but are absorbing a lot of gauranteed money this year only.. So I'm sure Cox's contract prob is back loaded to help thier cap space

FYI.. The Eagles have done some "head scratching" moves this offseason, but I'll hand it to them.. I've never seen another team dump salary and wash their hands of the old regime in one offseason as they have... Kinda sucks, I was kinda hoping it would hold them hostage for a few years.. Lol, but giving up all those draft picks for another QB kinda made me feel better..

Peters won't get paid again. He's 35 now.

Kelce has had a few down seasons, but still better than average and they locked up Johnson (for more than Tyron, haha)

 

[Zordon]

this could have been you claibum.
