Would you guys trade our second and next years 4 for Frank Clark and give him Demarcus Lawrence contract? Take Wilkins Oliver or tillery first round and then BPA at the other second? The dline would be ELITE and will have a great 3 man rotation at DE and DT. Howie did say build at the lines.

No. We wouldn't be able to afford Wentz next year. Or anyone. We have very few good players who are on rookie deals. We need to get some more of those.

Would have been doable if we hadn't already resigned BG

Yup, but since we decided to over-pay B-Rex for becoming practically invisible since SBLII, our only fiscally realistic hope at improving the DL is D-Wreck Barnett taking a big step forward (Not likely, coming off of shoulder surgery), Josh Sweat taking 2 or 3 huge steps forward (Super unlikely), and Malik Jackson balling out (Could happen) next to Cox. No DE's available at our 25th pick would likely improve our pass rush this year.

Our best bet to improve the DL for this season is adding that stud 3rd DT, or really hitting on a mid round DE like Crosby/Hollins/Gustin/Cominsky/Bryant/Brailford/Darryl Johnson.

I could see us trading for a DE too, but only for one that's still on their rookie deal. We aren't trading for a guy that's about to get Fletcher Cox money.

We would, look at Lawrence contract numbers per year. We could afford that and give him 18 mill this year 16 mill next year and 23 the year after and then have a 3 year out like Lawrence does. We can def make it happen. As long as we make the fifth year 26 million like Demarcus contract. I say 18 mill this year because we have a lot to cap space still and next year we will have Wentz on his 5th year and then we resign him to a contract with his first year pretty cheap and that’s when Clark will b getting paid a lot. And salary cap will go up

Not sure how Graham's contract is structured...what is his cap hit if they released him next offseason?

Cap Number -- Cap effect if released
2019:
$3.5M --  -$23.5M
2020:
$13.375M -- -$10.125M
2021:
$16.375M -- +$6.25M
2022:
$3.375M -- -$3.375M
2023:
$3.375M -- $0

So if we decide to keep him in 2021, he'll be here for 2022 as well. Odd contract structure. Trust the Howie.

Eagles just cleared up another 5 mill by converting Ertz contract into signing bonus. Should be around 25-26 mill in cap... why do this if we don’t have a move. Maybe we can get Frank Clark, he will be better then anyone we can get in the second and be a huge addition. 

some people are saying maybe extending carson but i think that's dumb right now. Gotta see the guy stay healthy for once.
