Cooper signed! Maclin likely next!

Strike these two off your wishlist (which sounds kinda funny to say).

Things got a little better now that Cooper has signed a five-year, $25 million contract with $10 million in guarantees. Remember, most thought this guy should have been cut back in August when video surfaced of him dropping the n-word at a Kenny Chesney concert. It’s not tough to argue that if Maclin didn’t go down with an ACL that Cooper wouldn’t be getting this contract.
 
If Maclin was healthy, Cooper probably gets cut. The Eagles only kept Cooper because they had to. They had no one else who could start opposite Jackson. So, they dealt with the PR nightmare and locker room disaster, gritted their teeth and held on to him. Then, he jelled with Nick Foles and caught 47 balls for 835 yards and eight touchdowns. And those weren’t hollow numbers either; he made some very big plays.

 

 

 

 

In other news, the Eagles are still talking to Maclin about coming back, but a deal is not close according to Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer. There are hurdles to be cleared, but McLane still says that they should get a deal done before free agency hits.

    • Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.  
    • I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......  
    • Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
