CasperX22 Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Hopefully that deal is incentive laden. I would not guarantee this guy a roster spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devin White’s deal was reported as 7.5 mil but 4 mil of it was incentives. Probably similar here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nabbs4u Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Go back to opening day 2023. The only Eagles defensive back in the regular rotation who was 26 or younger was Blankenship. In 2024, that number could go up to six - Mitchell, DeJean, Gardner-Johnson, Rodgers, Kelee Ringo and Eli Ricks. Seven once Sydney Brown is healthy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nabbs4u Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Say what you will but our ST should be drastically better in 2024. While Covey was a pleasant surprise adding DeJean, Smith and Shipley to the mix the numbers game getting to 53, might not go in Covey's favor?

They were top 5 by nearly all metrics a year ago. It is noteworthy that they have invested significant resources in their special teams units in both FA and the draft just as the new kickoff rules go into effect.

Covey and Smitty (No). Who were the KR? I Honestly don't remember? With the new KR rules similar in some ways to a PR now ,we added 3 players with numerous PR/KR TD's to their resume in college. As good as Covey was last season , he has Legit Competition in 2024! So Yes Drastically better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nabbs4u Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 (edited) "Former first-round pick WR John Ross will participate in the Eagles’ rookie camp this week on a tryout basis. (Via Mike Garafolo)" Is this real or fake news? Kicking tires? Speed, speed, speed, speed! Theme of the offseason.

So Yes Drastically better. Boston Scott was the primary kick returner. Covey was also 2nd in the NFL in PR avg and probably would have been #1 if he were like most pr guys that call for a fair catch every time someone gets close to him. He turned a lot of fair catch situations into positive yardage. It doesn't get much better than what Covey was able to do. I think he's still on the roster come cut downs.

Id be surprised if we got anything out of him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
