I still believe we are going to make another move. There is no doubt Philly has had a great offseason again. They did lose some players but did keep a few and had a great draft. I believe our draft was good but thats it (still sick with the TE in 2nd and not taking Torrance). All that being said my feeling is that Philly did well enough to still hold an edge.
I feel we are going to make a move for either Henry or Cooks. Doing this would put us right back up there on paper with the Eagles and 9ers. Giants also had a good draft and has closed the gap. Our 3 glaring holes is still OG, WR and RB. Hopefully we can fill at least one of them.

I would love to see this team get aggressive and make one more move, but I get the sense you'll see a free agent kicker get brought in, some UDFA pickups, and that'll be what they go to camp with. It's extremely tough to get a starting caliber OL at this point. With them putting such an emphasis on the TE position I bet the feel they're good at WR. If you're playing a lot of 2-3 TE sets you really don't need to be 5 deep at WR. RB is the spot I think we could see another move at, but I would expect to be underwhelmed. I'd bet you'll see a Zeke or Fournette type of vet min signing instead of them going after a Henry or Cooks.

How many RBs do we need? We can take 2 RBs and Duece, as an all-purpose, on game days.. If we're brave, we can take just 1 RB and Duece..

Here's the picture of concern:

(Philadelphia) Banks and Carter have just started their growth to greatness.

Even with: LG Tyler Smith; C Tyler Biadasz; and RG Zach Martin up front, the tackle picture at best is good but on hold.

The tackle picture is good at present with LT Tyron Smith and RT Terence Steele.

LT 6'5" - LG 6'6" - C 6'3" - RG 6'4" - RT 6'6" (Now find Vaughn):)

That leaves backups and development with:

Josh Ball 6'8" T
Chuma Edogu 6'3" G
Matt Farnick 6'5" C
Brock Hoffman 6'4" G
Alex Taylor 6'8" T/G
Matt Waletko 6'8" T/G
Asim Richards 6'4" *rookie G

I think Zeke just makes too much sense. No one is giving him a big contract, so even if just as a pass protector it’d be a worthwhile pickup

I think they should keep an eye out on the waiver wire for a K and another vet OL. Risner would be a nice one. If they really want to settle the K once and for all, Mason Crosby. FA and 38 years old and is not too bad for a K. Bring him home Jerry.

Henry would have a Charles Haley type impact. If Jerry wants to go all on that would be the move.

Jerry is not going to have a $20 million dollar backfield.

Glaring? Hmmm. There is a starter at OG, we go WR4 deep already and RB4 deep already. Putting resources into Henry or Cooks could be used somewhere else much better.
