I mean we did have good looking young receivers this preseason at some point they need to get more playing time at the expense of veterans moving on.

I don't think 75 catches 854 yards and 6 tds is what guy had in mind. Those are just the numbers he's on pace for. But you're ignoring my points about how he is still learning the offense and developing chemistry with Carson, and that he's faced Josh Norman, Patrick Peterson, Janoris Jenkins, Marcus Peters....

You asked the question today who we should keep this offseason. I don't think if the season ended today Alshon would even want to be here. There are still 10 games and it could get better but as of this moment when you ask this question I don't know that Alshon would want to be an eagle. Takes a player and team to tango.

ninjapirate Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 I really don't think Alshon and Torrey come back next year. I think it's one or the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZ_Eaglesfan Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 WR Alshon Jeffrey (UFA) TE Trey Burton (UFA) HB Darren Sproles (UFA) HB LeGarrette Blount (UFA) HB Kenjon Barner (UFA) OG Chance Warmack (UFA) LB Nigel Bradham (UFA) S Corey Graham (UFA) DT Timmy Jernigan (UFA) LB Najee Goode (UFA) CB Patrick Robinson (UFA) CB Dexter McDougle (RFA) DB Jaylen Watkins (RFA) DT Beau Allen (UFA) K Jake Elliott (ERFA) LS Rick Lovato (ERFA) I crossed out guys I think we could replace with either a rookie or a different FA. Bolded are players we absolutely need to keep. Other players are ones I think are very likely we keep at this point, but could end up leaving if they are too expensive. Alshon is obviously the big question mark, how much is he really worth? I think he is worth a top 15-20 WR contract personally, but who knows what our FO thinks. He has been getting heavily focused by defenses, and he is creating space for Nelson and Ertz to make plays. Is that worth a 10-12 million dollar contract? I don't know, but right now I want to keep him around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jroc04 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 ^ I like that list. Think it's pretty realistic. I'd like to bring back Blount on a similar contract if he's willing while we groom a RB. There's room for Burton still. Celek is done after this year. He's still valuable as a blocker but that's all he does at this point in his career. We can easily draft a blocking TE. Signing Timmy I think prices Beau out unfortunately. Way too many resources going into the DL. It's obviously a strength but we can't keep throwing money there and not expect other positions to suffer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nlesthought Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Depends how the rest of '17 goes...if certain UFA don't show up down the stretch I can't see them being resigned. EDIT: If I was to play along and base it off 6 games Jernigan Elliott Lavato Bradham Jeffrey Robinson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phire Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 With Darby and Jones healthy, does that make Robinson expendable? We also just drafted Douglas and the team inexplicably seems to like Jalen Mills. Schwartz likes to use three safeties which takes a CB off the field.

I said Robinson based on the fact we currently have 5 CBs on the field. We don't know what will happen throughout the course of a year and being older I'm sure they'll like someone with his experience. Granted he maybe resigned, it doesn't mean he'll make the roster in '18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
