ninjapirate Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Which puts us under the cap so trade for curry if you guys want him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MOSteelers56 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Seems like a strange move after losing that one guy TE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuskieTitan Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 These are the sort of head scratching moves that make people doubt a team can repeat the following season. Celek is a veteran and provides a veteran presence in the locker room. When Wentz went down, it was Celek's leadership that kept the franchise together through the tough times, and allowed them to channel their inner strength during the playoff push. I'm certain any team that has legitimate championship aspirations will be calling Celek's agent right about now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeezla Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 No biggie. We got udfa Billy Miller waiting to break out. Had to be done. Brent has like zero in the tank and now we're under the cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagles $5$ Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Love Celek, but the move had to be done. He was not worth the $5m he was going to get. We'll most likely look to sign a cheap one year deal with one of the FA TE's and might also draft one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not when you are over the cap and have a number of core leaders in the locker room. Jason Peters, Malcolm Jenkins, Jason Kelce, Lane Johnson, Fletcher Cox etc/ He's a back up blocking tight end who wasn't worth the $5m against the gap, a no brainer.

If we don't repeat (which is a high probability) it won't be because we cut a 12-year vet backup tight end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
