OT: Philadelphia Eagles (NFL): Don't Cry Because It's Over, Smile Because it Happened (Offseason - 2023)

[JojoTheWhale]

Don't trust anybody who tells you they can meaningfully evaluate DB play without coaches' tape. You can't even see them on the damn screen.

@JojoTheWhale inject it into your veins

Holy shit that's a trade. I love it.

Shocker that a pro WR built like an ACTUAL superhero won a foot race against some dolts

He’s legit one of the fastest runners in the world.

Absolutely. I don't actually mean to make his opponents seem weak - they're legit as well.

But Ty Hill is a freak & this was just no surprise to me that he won a track race against...anyone in the world.

"World class speed" is an over used description of fast guys, but not in Hill's case.

@Chinatown88 Sam Monson is on Team ARich Is Actually The Floor Guy for QB2 with me. This is why I love him.

I'm always shocked at how little teams get back in non-QB trades.

 

[JojoTheWhale]

As an Eagles fan, that Ramsey trade should be terrifying for the prospects of a Slay trade.

I'm always shocked at how little teams get back in non-QB trades.

They fully guaranteed both of his next 2 years, so that's ~37 Million. It still should have been more, but that's a part of the value depression.

I know, it's just always surprising. I guess more than anything it shows the value of cap space/dollars in this league.

 

[BrindamoursNose]

Hell of a player for so little in return.

If we trade Slay, just expect maybe a 6th in return. That's all there is to it.

 

[trostol]

that is weirdly brilliant in a way

They aren't fully guaranteed like the other sports though. Small window to cash in too. The NFL is the cruelest sports league.

Wow. That would have set off the worst takes you've ever seen.

I like to talk about degree of difficulty of decisions. That one was 100/100. I can't fault them for not doing it, but it would have been impressive as hell.

Why must the torture me with these hypotheticals?

The trading Goff prior to extension and just continuously attacking rookie QB deals theory still keeps me awake at night.

If I was a GM I would go down in flames executing the rookie QB contract/Super Bowl window thing in today's NFL.

I subscribe to this

Not too long ago Ramsey was traded for 2 first picks+.

As was Laremy Tunsil.

@JojoTheWhale

My god, that would have been epic!

Like Jojo said, can't fault them for not doing it.

But that would have been incredible to see. Especially the hot takes, haha.

Every time we get a GM firing, my reaction to the thread is that they would be hanging me in effigy if I was one.
