Upcoming Off-Season Thread

Aside from the contract, the Eagles are most appealing to Murray because of his belief in their chance to win.

If he does end up signing with the Birds, I'll give him props for that parting FU to Dallas.

[BigEd76]

Murray is bringing his fiance with him, and his agent is meeting him here. Sounds like more than just a visit

Dallas now calling around for other RBs. Cowboys know they've lost DeMarco Murray to the Eagles.

[General_Failure]

I can't wait until they announce Murray signed with the Colts.

[phattymatty]

dallas gets shtein on either way so this is really win win.

[General_Failure]

Until they get their hands on the scrotum slasher, sure.

It's nice they're using cap space instead of going into the season $20 million under. That's such a Howie/Banner mentality that I never understood. Same with signing players early, sure if you can get them for a discount it makes sense, but then you run the risk of injury or even worse the player outperforming their deal and wanting to renegotiate.

Rappaport reporting Evan Mathis is on the trading block

[General_Failure]

Gotta clear out that $6 mil for more Oregon players.

[BigEd76]

Floating this idea out there since everyone assumes DeMeco is the next to go: cutting Mathis ($6.5M, 34 in November) would give them another $3.5M to work with

[Eagles_Legendz]

Mathis is good.  They already got rid of TH.  With no immediate replacement waiting I don't see the point of letting go of Mathis.

dont worry, kelly has a plan. 

[ice grillin you]

the guy may be a mad scientist and hits a home run out of all of this but is there a team ever going into a season with more if's than the 2015 eagles...theres like 8 of them just having to do with injuries

[smeags]

13-3 or 3-13 ... no in between.
