I’m sure they’ll get a nice 3rd round comp pick lol

Would we do this deal for LVE? This seems like the ballpark for him.

This and the Quincy Williams deal is definitely the ballpark

 

[Kolemmitt]

Since we aren't signing anyone of note, I will take my condolences watching the Eagles lose a number of their players.

I totally would. We've seen the difference LVE makes on this defense... where else will you find that kind of impact for $6M a season?

 

[John813]

IMO seems like a deal in the 6-7mil range is fair to both sides for LVE.
Unless Dallas thinks that's a honest offer for Wagner.

Difference is.

They have a FO that will AGGRESSVELY replace who they lose.

I would do it in a minute. And I think it is in the Cowboys range of payments. I don;t think they can get a better LB than LVE for that money.

But I think LVE is going to get more.

Nakobe Dean, come on down

Id prefer giving that to Wagner.

The guy that has had more than 1 good season in his career.

Lol, yes

Bears do have the most cap space. I figured they would be active in free agency.

 

[JohnsKey19]

I guess that clears the way for Nakobie Dean.

 

[Motorola]

With almost $76 million in cap space for 2023, expect to read or hear a lot of '[Player X] to the Bears' over the next several days.

no, maybe for 2018 LVE

At least here, they are just going to hope last year's pick Dean can fill the void. They will not be aggressive in replacing Edwards. Despite Eagles fans thinking Howie is some wizard with the cap that just makes all cap hits disappear when he wants them to, the Eagles are up against it a bit and that's not including the reality they have a QB on a rookie deal who has to get paid soon.

If there is a GM to try to work through this mud pit, it's Roseman but even he's got his hands tied here. The cap never loses. You gotta pay the piper at some point.

Somehow. The Eagles will be more active than us in FA/trade market. You can pretty much mark that down.

 

[Proof]

Nakobe Dean, come on down

and bring your dumb hat

Ehhhh, I've been called a closet Eagles fan with my defense of them but this year, I wouldn't be too sure on them being a lot more active than us. They really are up against the cap. The run off from the defense alone could be eye popping. I am not sure you'll see them bring in any big vets like they did last year with the Brown trade or the Reddick signing.

That's not to say we are somehow doing it as well. We clearly are not, but even the Eagles and their GM are seeing the harsh realities of a capped league.
