Cliff notes version of the article on BGN.
1. Barrett Books says he has on good insider knowlege 90% chance D Watson in in Eagle nation by Friday.
FOR this years first three 1st rounders and possibly next years as well.
2. It means some bigger players are going to have to be moved (unnamed)
3. Inference that J Hurts can be moved and G Minshaw stays as number 2.
4. This is a reason why H Reddick was signed to add to D Line.
I have not had enough time to process this.
IT IS Barrett Brooks whom I'm assuming is somewhat plugged in...
4 #1 picks. Hell no. I can see maybe 2 #1 picks. One from this year and one from next year with 2 more picks (2rnd - 4rnd).

Um. What the entire fuck?
What's the dead money on that?
Does that provide any real cap savings?
[The Philadelphia Eagles have released six-time Pro Bowl defensive tackle Fletcher Cox after 10 seasons, sources told NFL Network's Mike Garafolo.
Cox, who was designated as a post-June 1 release, was set to have $18 million of his salary guaranteed Thursday at 4 p.m. ET. The Eagles and Cox are having ongoing discussions about a potential return, Garafolo adds.]

Only saves them $2M in cap space this year, but they owed him $18M in real money tomorrow

What this does, is change what the Eagles probably do in the draft. You would have to think that Jordan Davis would have to be on their list. I could honestly see the the Eagles using 8 of their 10 draft picks on defense

I dont think your 2023 dead cap number is correct. He is a post June 1 designation, so he had a $25M dead cap number split over the 2 years...so it should be 12.5 for each this year and next

I am so confused....the Eagles are on the verge of resigning Cox????? What kind of Plutonium math/capology is used to deduct this was a good thing and how does it help the Eagles. I guess at some point someone will explain it. If he does come back, Fletcher needs to play a hell of a lot better then he did this year. 35 tackles and 3 sacks are not nearly enough, especially since he stopped getting double teamed after Hargrave was a beast early on.
