Twitter: Top ten highest paid defensive players

[MWH1967]

Let Diggs go , so overrated . Gives up tons big plays . Not making Int's like last year .Diggs is a Dime a dozen CB

 

[Zekeats]

Parsons could be the first to crack $150M ( more than Dak's current deal )

At least he'd be worth it!

 

[nate dizzle]

That's a lot of pass rushers.
If you have to lose one or the other who would you chose to lose...Lamb or Diggs? Parsons contract comes up one year after those two guys so we might not be able to keep both of those guys and Parsons too.

Much easier to replace Lamb than Diggs IMO. The upcoming draft class looks pretty good for WR

Micah’s agent looking at that…..

 

[darthseinfeld]

Jaire Alexander has the highest per year for a CB at 4 years 84 million with 30 guaranteed. Ward has the highest guarantees at 70 million on a 5 year 100 million deal

Will be interesting to see whose deal Diggs matches

if i'm his agent i push for both. 5/105 with 70 guaranteed.

 

[HanD]

That's not a real question fir anyone that knows football and isn't trolling. Diggs is much better than Lamb at an equally premium position

at a more premium position imo.

 

[blueblood70]

Parsons will sit out during the preseason of his 4th year. Any agent is going to insist on this.

SO? still a long LONG way away to even bother discussing it,.. also holding out doesn't guarantee a deal.

 

[blueblood70]

lamb can't command a Devante Adams contract... Trevon Diggs is better than CeeDee lamb and more valuable to the strength of our team.

CeeDee gets 4 catches a game sometimes...I have his jersey - sadly with our OC he can be replaced and utilized way better somewhere else and his agent is probably telling him that

he will have 80-100 catches if we pass more , we turned into run heavy offense with Rush in and waiting on Gallup and Washington to come back to fully see what the offense was supposed to look like...

when our O gets a bit more aggressive in some game lambs production will pick up. its pretty much on par with most starting WRs who are on similar offense. not sure what the issues are . sure he will need to prove more to get a big deal but anyone still whining about keeping Cooper at 22mil, Lamb has the same stats right not. So??

It will be after next season and if Jones was smart, he would welcome it.

Jones isn't that smart. he will try to be the tough negotiator while the price gets higher and higher.....just like Dak.

 

[Risen Star]

Clark's looking at 200 million easy.

1.5 seasons more ... again too early to discus, debate, or worry. lots of things team and league wise ie cap cost will change.

IMO Parsons has not won us a playoff game or sb, so hes not worth it,, I hope by his deal, he will have shown he can carry the team and win us something on his own, like Dak expectations. Hes padding stats right now hasnt shown us against the better teams he can win games. I mean he was on this TEAM last season every game Dak also lost?

there are zero issues...everyone just wants to say he's a #2 when you look at Philly play last night AJ Brown had 4 receptions. We just need CeeDee to have a statement game so that our offense is game planned for accordingly i.e. 3TD game like AJ's last week. Then it'll open up our run game even more

right Brown cost the eagles draft picks and 100mil, their stats are close to the same and he officially has more drops, same with AC... Lambs younger and cheaper than both..id say we are doing just fine.

How is Aaron Donald not on that list?

The list is based on total contract value, not per season average.

Donald's current contract is 3-years, 95M.

Average
Khalil Mack: 23.5M
Aaron Donald: 31.6M

That's the first thing that came to my mind.

 

[Tussinman]

How is Aaron Donald not on that list?

Yeah technically speaking he should be number one

His 6 year deal for 135 million (signed in 2018 and didn't go effect until 2019) is still in effect and they even went back this off-season and added another 40 million to the existing deal without adding more years (to prevent him from retiring).

His current 6 year deal is technically worth 175 million

No he's technically correct. Donald's deal was for 135 million and to prevent him from retiring they went back and added 40 more million without adding more years (he did not sign a brand new deal, it was added to his existing contract)

His current deal is 175 million total
