haha

but wait...so now anyone who likes football is a fool?...errands are one thing but why the outright hostility towards the sport?

Johnson being signed is hardly a story worth caring about. The new CBA makes rookie holdouts 99% pointless. And it's been a while since the Eagles had much trouble with rookie holdouts even under the old system.

its not end of the world news but when a top 5 overall pick who is relatively new at his position potentially could miss some of camp it matters

well matters to me anyway

2 for 1 deals on hand picked tomatoes at the farmers market are big deals to dio

Close to finalizing an extention.

Smart, if they can get him at RT money before he takes JPs place.

Rome · January 29, 2016, 10:16:34 AM

He'll be the highest paid tackle period after he signs.

Just watch...

Man, does Howie not like him some Cox ? I would've thought differently..

this has nothing to do with prioritizing...you have to remember howie learned under banners philosophy of trying to lock up young players before they are close to maximizing their potential...and that's exactly what hes doing now...doesn't mean they wont sign cox but hes already a top player at his position in the nfl....lane johnson is a middling tackle and ertz has never been a full time starter...completely different scenarios

5 yr, 63 mil

most guaranteed money of any tackle in the nfl....and by over five million bucks

but his AAV is around 10th i think

seems high to me for a guy who hasn't distinguished himself at RT much less LT where hes gonna move....obviously they are rolling the dice and banking on him getting much better

$35.5 mil guaranteed

That's a lot of money. I like Johnson more than most, after this season when Peters can no longer goes he becomes the LT. Line is the biggest priority on the team.

I'm fine with Peters this season, you draft a Tackle that you play as a guard this year, sign a guard, and the line is decent.

Peters has already said that he expects to eventually end up at LG. Hopefully he realizes that the time is now, so they can move him and restructure.
