downundermike Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Still waiting on coaching decisions, so lets look at the roster. We need a lot of work. Need an overhaul of the back 7, need a ton of depth for the offensive line, need a DE starter and depth. Here is the 2024 roster as it currently stands. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danger Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 EDGE rusher is really by biggest concern at a glance. Sweat and Reddick, beyond that it's effectively nobody. I don't know what to expect of Nolan Smith moving forward, but he didn't show anything this year. First thing's first we need to see who the coaching staff is and what the philosophies will be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to know that ownership and the front office will change their ways before everything else. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nabbs4u Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 (edited) Regardless of who is hire or not, it is clear as Day where the Eagles are lacking, Defense! Only gets worse when Cox, BG, JB, Slay and the rest of the Vet signings we attempted to fill injuries with that failed miserably are all gone as well. We are extremely young on defense! Or at least should be in 2024 after cuts! Take your lumps and 🙏 despite that age it will be hard to be worst then the 2023 Eagles Defense! Rebuild, replenish that entire side of the team. Hope a new OC/HC fixes the offensive woes of 2023. Starts there! Edited January 17 by Nabbs4u 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CasperX22 Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 Bradberry and Byard I would imagine get let go. Bradberry will incur a massive cap hit, but there's no way to sell bringing him back. Byard was **** with minimal investment and a large cap hit. They will move on. I would imagine Ringo will get a chance to compete for the starting corner opposite Slay provided Slay is healthy enough to start the season. Ditto for Brown opposite Blankenship. They will either draft someone or the more likely scenario someone signed off the street on a 1-2 year deal to compete with the kids. Johnson is back. Graham and Cox both want to come back for one last hurrah and they'd do well to at least bring Graham back on a 1 year deal to solidify their edge depth. Reddick I can see them moving on from. He's older, massive cap hit, and disappeared down the stretch. Roughly half of this roster will be completely turned over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EagleBlueDon Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 16 minutes ago, Kiltman said: Saw Cox was hinting at retirement, but think he might do a Suh next year at least Man you'd think after such a solid season he'd be fine to play another full one. He'd be one hell of a mercenary pickup like midway through a season for a team, based on last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's not to say Slay doesn't retire, I believe he hinted at wanting more family time on his podcast, this injury might just help push him to retirement.

Yea, i do believe it will def matter what the injury and rehab timeline is, but also could he the full wake up for him to walk away, especially with how this season went and PHI booing him and his reaction to The PHI boos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First thing's first we need to see who the coaching staff is and what the philosophies will be. I’m certain coaching philosophies will be more of the same, unless Lurie does something drastic like fire Howie. The amount of holes on the defense is alarming and they’ve been kicking the Safety, CB, LB can down the road for far too long. They’ll probably over correct like they did with drafting all SEC players, and go heavy at those spots.

I think Slay is back, but Cox is more 50/50. Going to depend a lot on what they chose to do with this coaching staff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
