and Philly won 6 in 2024 on the way to a Super Bowl - what is your point? Luck obviously always is an extremely important part of any pro sports (injuries, weather, travel, schedule, etc.)

We went 8-9... I'll leave it at that cause this really isn't the thread for it. We signed a really injured guy for a lot of money. Continue on Morgan and Tepper...

Has any other FA hit 100 million??

ugh, I don't believe so...

Oweh just signed a similar 4 year $100 million (68 guaranteed) again I would always look at the guaranteed, but yes another edge just signed something similar and Oweh isn't great against the run.

I was telling everyone this team would HAVE to overpay for anyone worthwhile because of who our franchise is and where we are located. 

Would've rather seen this position addressed in the draft for pennies on the dollar.  But I guess time will tell.

 

draft is very middling in terms of edge talent IMO

two of the tops edges have historically short arms

He was 97th in run defense snaps for edges with  (134).

So that’s 25 mill per for essentially a pure pass rusher. Jesse Minter said the key to unlocking Oweh in La was giving him freedom as a pass rusher. I knew right there we weren’t signing him. Evero gives no freedom

Agree.  It's a crap shoot either way. 

Just a lot less stressful / impactful when you're not betting $120 million on the dice roll.

respectfully i disagree

a draft pick is a dice roll

Phillips is a known excellent pash rusher who can defend the run and is only 26. chances like this happen so rarely

    • Except it takes those QB's a few years to develop because they needed to learn the mental side of the game and have it catch up to their physical attributes. Bryce was supposed to be a QB savant who already had a fully developed mental side of the game and that was going to make up for his lack of physical ability.  And his lack of NFL level QB physical traits has been clear as day to anyone who has watched him the last 3 years, mainly, he just doesn't have an NFL arm, he can't zip the ball into tight spaces or throw on a line down the field like is needed at this level.
    • Don’t recall seeing many of his interviews but what strikes me is that he engages and goes in depth. Even with the cliche answers as referenced by OP come across somewhat thoughtful.  Very likable personality despite being someone who can crush an average person like I can crush a paper cup. I knew Motons mother had a career at MSU but was looking on the google and found that Mushin Muhammad personally knew Motons grandfather.   His late grandfather was a professor at MSU.   Cool guy.  Interesting family and small world.      
    • I think people aren’t patient enough with Young. It can take a few years for a QB to develop. Look at Darnold, Baker and most recently Daniel Jones.   he hasn’t been able to put up big passing numbers either cause of how much we run the ball. You can tell our coaching staff still hasn’t took the training wheels off Bryce and let him go all out. We’ve had some pretty bad receivers as well. We finally got a true number one last year and look how much Bryce improved. Still we didn’t really have any depth behind TMac. Coker was hurt for a lot of the year and XL was our #2. How many big plays or TDs has XL dropped? I think this year can be the year we see Bryce able to hit his stride. If not then we can start looking for another qb but I just ask people to be patient.
