NGT: Philly making CAP room...

Is a big move on the way?

Nobody of any note/worth is still out there correct?

Into next year.

If it’s not a trade.

Restructures push money into future years, it doesn’t just disappear creating cap room that they can carry over

Watson not so much, he’s very beatable and don’t trust his baggage anyway. If that were it though I hope it’s not for yet another ridiculous discount.

But my first thought was Xavien Howard. But it could also just be a buffer for the season.

That's the play for them.

If that truly were the play for them, I would have to assume they'd be better off making the restructures next year instead of now. Because even though they can create cap room that rolls over if unused, they're also pushing cap cost (and liability) into next year as part of the process to do so.

There's often value in rolling some existing unused cap space forward, but it's not common to restructure contracts a year in advance specifically for the purpose of creating unused rollover.

I think this quote from the article says it

Quote:

The Eagles had approximately $2 million in cap room so most likely these moves are designed to give them breathing room for the regular season and additional carryover to 2022 where they are currently projected to be around just $3 million under the cap.

I still believe this year is a complete tank job by Philly. If Hurts is anything, it's a bonus for them, else, they are here to lose and lose a lot in 2021 and setting up for lots of picks in 2022 looking to start their turn around next year. They had only $3M in cap space in 2022, so they are getting ahead of it. As I have said on other posts, the Giants should beat the crap out of them this year and we should all enjoy it, because it doesn't happen that often.

Something is brewing...
