Eagles DE Haasan Reddick given permission to seek a trade

[Aerolithe_Lion]

They aren't trading Reddick. He'll play out the remainder of his contract, and they'll let him go next year. They'll collect the 2 and probably 4. That's how they work.

How do they collect a 2 and a 4 if he’s playing out the rest of his contract

Too rich for our blood....is Randy Gregory still available?

Speaking of him, there was a Gregory sighting last night! He was dang close to winning a ring.

Can you imagine that??? Randy Gregory a super bowl champ?

.......he jinxed them.

Lets see
Even if they get a 2, they have a 2 and 20 + million to spend on defense
This is what smart GMs do

I agree. But they’ll be worse off in the short term. Hopefully we capitalize for once in my life

They will be better
That 20 million will allow them to sign LBs, CBs and safeties which was their main weakness
Draft a DE in rd 1
With Fangio as DC, they will be a much improved defense next year IMO

They don’t save 20 million if they trade Reddick this year. It only approves their cap by about 1 million.

Hes up for a contract
He is a top 5 DE
They will likely have to pay him north of 20 million
Its not complicated if one is not seeing through silver and blue glasses

News should make Steele happy. Dude worked him last year.

 

[conner01]

Exactly ......not a 1st. Maybe a 2nd or 3rd coz he will need a new deal. Actually would be a good trade for the Commanders ( they traded both of their starters). They are loaded with cap money and high picks.

I agree. One year on his deal and his age if they get a second that’s a good value

 

[Beaker42]

Yes. Please.

I was talking about cap savings for 2024…I believe there is dead money involved that would make the cap savings only about 1 mil. If the Eagles trade him it’s because they got what they believe is good draft compensation compared to letting him walk in a year. And yes…also to avoid paying probably north of 20 mil per going forward after next season for an Edge rusher that will then be 31 years old

And I’m pretty sure I don’t see through silver and blue glasses lol

WE started to see it last yr, now it continues as they cannot keep all these high priced players paying Hurts market level QB money. Eagles struggled rushing the passer last season and now they want to deal their best pass rusher, good luck with that!

Hurts counts 16 million against the cap next year, this has nothing to do with Hurts’ contract. They let Darius Slay do the same thing last year, let the player see what the market is. If a good offer comes in they trade him, if not they will offer an extension.

Huge mistake resigning Slay, who is a shell of his former self.

They let him leave, and receive compensation. The compensation for someone like Reddick would be something in the range of a 2, and 4. That's just a estimate. It could be a couple 3's. I know the numbers would be fairly high in compensation.

 

[Blue&Silver]

Slay wasn't the problem. It was a huge mistake re-signing Bradberry. I'm sure if they had to do over again it would be Bradberry that was allowed to leave.

Bradberry was worse. It’s a big hit to.let him go but he’s unplayable.

Is there even such a thing as a 2nd round comp. pick?

The important issue is they lost the Super Bowl so they had to make decisions. And made them. Now they had a late season collapse so they have decisions to make. And they’re making them. The decisions and changes may not work out, but it’s more encouraging than simply running it back.

It's a tough call for aging players, never know when to cut the cord. Bellicheck was always excellent with this.

Eagles defense struggled cause the prior yr they were playing ahead most of the time. Pass rush was dominate, it hid their weaknesses in the secondary.
