I just think CJGJ is a mediocre player, who is greatly overhyped by fans/media. The fact that he's on his 3rd team in 3 years, and nobody signed him long-term seems to back that up a little. I don't think he'll be missed.

As opposed to franchising a RB when everyone else is signing guys for $6m/season max.Don't believe me thats fine
PHILADELPHIA - Eagles general manager Howie Roseman was named the 2022 NFL Executive of the Year by the Pro Football Writers of America on Thursday.
Roseman's deft personnel moves - highlighted by acquiring All-Pros A.J. Brown and Haason Reddick - spearheaded the Eagles to an NFC East title and the No. 1 seed in the conference.
Philadelphia hosts the NFC Championship Game on Sunday (3 p.m./FOX) against San Francisco with an opportunity for its second Super Bowl berth in five years.
Under Roseman's stewardship of the personnel department and roster, the Eagles boasted the deepest and most well-rounded team in the NFL this season with 17 players earning Pro Bowl or Pro Bowl alternate status.
When other awards like the AP All-Pro Team, the PFWA's, and Pro Football Focus' honors that number swells to 20 players, an almost inconceivable number.
In two years since bottoming out after a Super Bowl LII championship with four wins in 2020, the Eagles went to 9-8 and a playoff berth in 2021, to a franchise record 14 wins this season.
The Eagles added five veteran free agents, including second-team All-Pro edge rusher Reddick, who finished with 16 sacks, and second-team All-Pro cornerback James Bradberry, a salary-cap casualty with the New York Giants who fit in perfectly in Jonathan Gannon's quarters-heavy cover scheme.
Roseman also hit the jackpot on the trade market with the draft night deal that sent Brown to the Eagles from Tennessee for first- and third-round draft picks and the summer pickup of NFL interception co-leader Chauncey Gardner-Johnson from New Orleans.
Brown ended up setting a franchise single-season record for receiving yards with 1,496 and CGJ was named All-NFC by the PFWA.
The draft netted three potential starters down the road in former Georgia teammates Jordan Davis and Nakobe Dean, along with Cam Jurgens, All-Pro center Jason Kelce's heir apparent.
Roseman previously won the award in 2017 and is just the fourth executive to win it multiple times since the honor was established in 1993, joining Hall of Famer Bill Polian (5), Scott Pioli (3), and George Young (2).

Dude signed an average FA. Happens every day.
The response ?
“What can I say? Howie gonna Howie! Guy just makes smart decisions!”
Seriously? I mean….seriously?!?!
Or trading a WR your paid a 1 for years ago to later trade for a 5th, who goes on to have a career year in Cleveland when the replacement was **Checks notes** Jalen Tolbert? Stellar.
Yeah signing an average FA at a position to replace a guy who PFF graded better than the guy you thought both was a CB and good seems like a smart decision.
What can I say though, you don't see a ton of great decision making in Dallas.
And you can laugh all you want its fine, I'm just point out that "most people" consider Howie to be a savvy/great GM.

Tony Pollard is a ton better than the likes of Miles Sanders or David Montgomery. That's not a bad move by Dallas at all.
Truthfully, both Dallas and Philly are among the more well run teams in the NFL, and are likely 2 of the 3 best teams in the NFC going forward.

I think in the Eagles case that year the game was still close and McCown was leading them down the field. It was 17-9 final and if the Eagles converted the 4th down and scored they could've gone for 2 and tied the game. In the case of the 49ers the game ended up being a blown out. If you were a neutral watching that game you'd have probably turned it off in the 2nd half and that's something the league doesn't want happening. I know if the Eagles weren't in that game and I saw that instance I'd have turned it off.
DJackson10
Footballguy
I literally expected a shootout. I said I wasn't sure if the Eagles could keep up with it. I went in knowing this game was gonna be won by one of the offense and the defenses hope one of the QBs or offenses makes a mistake which we unfortunately did.
I'm of the belief I don't think our defense was as good as people thought it was. We played a lot of underwhelming offenses this past year and let some pretty avg QBs throw against us at times. I really didn't think our defense was as good as it was made to be. yeah we need to play the teams on our schedule but I don't think they were as dominate in terms of coaching personal as much as it was the other teams offense wasn't as good. I was more so hoping maybe Mahomes and KC made a mistake or 2 like Brady and nE did in 17.
DJackson10
Footballguy
If you knew anything about KC they are a slow starting offense. Most analytics said they are a second half team. I was watching NFL Network halftime instead of the half time show and both guys said KC is more of a second half team. The Eagles struggled on both sides of the ball all year in the 2nd half. It was a dangerous mix that we were playing Russian roulette with all year It bit us in the *** finally in the end though.
DJackson10
Footballguy
You honestly think that? With the way our offense was playing I wasn't expecting much. I was pleasantly shocked they scored that lone TD in the 2nd Half honestly.
Amused to Death
Footballguy
In a game where they lost by 3 points? Yes, I honestly believe if the defense had come up with one 2nd half stop or turnover the Eagles win that game.
DJackson10
Footballguy
And when some of us on here start crying about media and other fans complaining about us the bolded is a good reason why
Amused to Death
Footballguy
Well right now we have people and the media whining that a QB *might* get hurt running that play. Not that any QB has been, but they *might*. I'd wager far more QBs are hurt in the pocket than running on short yardage.
The Noid
Avoid me!
Looks like the rough numbers are: went from 3 years/$47M ($16M/yr) to 4 years/$80M ($20M/yr)

The Eagles went for a FG rather then going for it earlier in the 2nd half. If Sirianni was aggressive there like he was all year makes the attempt maybe they score a TD. We chose to kick a field goal and hide our balls there. The offense wasn't doing much in the 2nd half at all. They had a long drive in the 3rd that took over 8 mins off the clock which was good. But it was just a FG they kicked. The Eagles next scoring drive took 4 mins off the clock. after KC scored a TD on a great PR by a guy I'm still not sure we even punted too. KC Scored on a busted coverage. Eagles then took the 4 mins off and TD +2. KC then took 4 Mins off the clock covered on a 4th and 1 and then Bradberry took a stupid penalty. on a 3rd down where KC got a FG. The Eagles by all intent and purposes the last part of that 2nd half weren't marching down the field with any insurgency what so ever. You also saw the lame duck throw at the end of the game there right by Hurts. At least give your guys a chance. I sure hope that was solely because of the shoulder injury though.
Terpman22

A Ton better? Maybe more so than Montgomery, but he was a shade better than Miles last year. And neither of these guys are coming off a broken leg. Simply put, the Eagles don't value the RB position the way Dallas does, as far as both draft capital and salary cap space. Right now they have $16m committed to the position this year due to this philosophy when the results show the last decade of Super Bowl winners invest hardly anything here. I'm all for division rivals, to include the Giants overspend a position when most/rest of the league is smarter than that. Gives the Birds an obvious edge in roster construction.Hey now, non Eagles or Cowboys fan here.As opposed to franchising a RB when everyone else is signing guys for $6m/season max.Don't believe me thats fine

PHILADELPHIA - Eagles general manager Howie Roseman was named the 2022 NFL Executive of the Year by the Pro Football Writers of America on Thursday.
Roseman's deft personnel moves - highlighted by acquiring All-Pros A.J. Brown and Haason Reddick - spearheaded the Eagles to an NFC East title and the No. 1 seed in the conference.
Philadelphia hosts the NFC Championship Game on Sunday (3 p.m./FOX) against San Francisco with an opportunity for its second Super Bowl berth in five years.
Under Roseman's stewardship of the personnel department and roster, the Eagles boasted the deepest and most well-rounded team in the NFL this season with 17 players earning Pro Bowl or Pro Bowl alternate status.

During their podcast, Kelce said Hurts stepped on his foot and that's why the bad throw. Don't have the heart to go back and watch it.
Regarding Sirianni's lack of aggression, it wasn't the field goal but the terrible punt they did late in the game. I was surprised they were kicking. it was 4th and 3 on their own 32, so not an automatic go for it, but something he's done before. With the way the defense was playing, I thought they would go for it and was surprised they kicked. Figured they wouldn't see the ball again. The fact the punt/coverage was bad just made it even worse.
I can agree with the philosophy of just not paying RBs at all, but Miles Sanders wasn't even close to as good as Pollard last year. Not in any way. Pollard was a clearly better runner, and infinitely better in the passing game. Between this, and some talk in the Bijan thread, I'm starting to think Pollard is still somehow the most underrated RB in the NFL. Frankly, I'd argue he was more deserving of the franchise tag than Saquon was, as Pollard is the better RB.A Ton better? Maybe more so than Montgomery, but he was a shade better than Miles last year.Hey now, non Eagles or Cowboys fan here.As opposed to franchising a RB when everyone else is signing guys for $6m/season max.Don't believe me thats fine

Truthfully, both Dallas and Philly are among the more well run teams in the NFL, and are likely 2 of the 3 best teams in the NFC going forward.
Your Grandmother should probably get an agent then, because Blankenship was 27th among Safeties in coverage grade, and that's the weakest part of his game. For reference point, CJGJ was 44th, though he did have a much larger sample size.

Former first round draft pick for the Steelers. He played in a lot of games, very reliable, a good complement to our other star safety Minkah and a classy player. He’s still pretty young and I think he will do well in Philly. With Watt, Heyward and Minkah leading our defense, I feel like Edmunds was never really in the spot light. He’s not a superstar but still a solid, reliable player.

Come on man. He wasn’t a ton better BEFORE breaking his leg. In 4 years he’s been nothing more than a change of pace back. Now he’s what a top 5 paid RB? Lol
He's been the among the top-5 most efficient RBs in the NFL over the last 3 years. Not his fault Dallas was in denial about Zeke's decline. Pollard should have been the starter years ago. Same way it wasn't Austin Ekeler's fault the Chargers preferred running Melvin Gordon for under 4 yards a pop. Gotta justify those high draft picks I guess.
Sanders has been among the worst starters in the NFL, and will almost certainly continue to be on a much worse offense. He was a liability in the passing game, and while he had a high YPC, he wasn't trusted with the money carries for most of his career, and that was competing with Jordan Howard, Boston Scott, and Kenneth Gainwell, not Ezekiel Elliott.

The poster you quoted only looks at stats. Anyone that actually watches games could see Pollard is electric with the ball in his hands

A Ton better? Maybe more so than Montgomery, but he was a shade better than Miles last year. And neither of these guys are coming off a broken leg. Simply put, the Eagles don't value the RB position the way Dallas does, as far as both draft capital and salary cap space. Right now they have $16m committed to the position this year due to this philosophy when the results show the last decade of Super Bowl winners invest hardly anything here. I'm all for division rivals, to include the Giants overspend a position when most/rest of the league is smarter than that.

The Eagles were going to Draft Dalvin Cook before Minn jumped ahead of them and took him. SO they took the next best back. I think if they had a Dalvin Cook they'd have tried to keep him and changed their philosophy. Miles was always the 2nd choice. I think his injuries and fumbling issues really soared the team. They don't value RB like others and most NFL teams don't anymore but at the same time it's not like the Eagles have had a top 3 Cow bell back for awhile either.

Yep he had like one good year and then started to **** the bed. He's a good role guy. He's not gonna do much more then you ask of him and don't expect him to be the big impact guy.

In two years since bottoming out after a Super Bowl LII championship with four wins in 2020, the Eagles went to 9-8 and a playoff berth in 2021, to a franchise record 14 wins this season.
The Eagles added five veteran free agents, including second-team All-Pro edge rusher Reddick, who finished with 16 sacks, and second-team All-Pro cornerback James Bradberry, a salary-cap casualty with the New York Giants who fit in perfectly in Jonathan Gannon's quarters-heavy cover scheme.
Roseman also hit the jackpot on the trade market with the draft night deal that sent Brown to the Eagles from Tennessee for first- and third-round draft picks and the summer pickup of NFL interception co-leader Chauncey Gardner-Johnson from New Orleans.
Brown ended up setting a franchise single-season record for receiving yards with 1,496 and CGJ was named All-NFC by the PFWA.
The draft netted three potential starters down the road in former Georgia teammates Jordan Davis and Nakobe Dean, along with Cam Jurgens, All-Pro center Jason Kelce's heir apparent.
Roseman previously won the award in 2017 and is just the fourth executive to win it multiple times since the honor was established in 1993, joining Hall of Famer Bill Polian (5), Scott Pioli (3), and George Young (2).
Dude signed an average FA. Happens every day.
The response ?
“What can I say? Howie gonna Howie! Guy just makes smart decisions!”
Seriously? I mean….seriously?!?!
Or trading a WR your paid a 1 for years ago to later trade for a 5th, who goes on to have a career year in Cleveland when the replacement was **Checks notes** Jalen Tolbert? Stellar.
Yeah signing an average FA at a position to replace a guy who PFF graded better than the guy you thought both was a CB and good seems like a smart decision.
What can I say though, you don't see a ton of great decision making in Dallas.
And you can laugh all you want its fine, I'm just point out that "most people" consider Howie to be a savvy/great GM.
Tony Pollard is a ton better than the likes of Miles Sanders or David Montgomery. That's not a bad move by Dallas at all.
Truthfully, both Dallas and Philly are among the more well run teams in the NFL, and are likely 2 of the 3 best teams in the NFC going forward.
The Eagles were going to Draft Dalvin Cook before Minn jumped ahead of them and took him. SO they took the next best back. I think if they had a Dalvin Cook they'd have tried to keep him and changed their philosophy. Miles was always the 2nd choice. I think his injuries and fumbling issues really soared the team. They don't value RB like others and most NFL teams don't anymore but at the same time it's not like the Eagles have had a top 3 Cow bell back for awhile either.

You are correct. Miles Sanders was 5th in rushing yards, and Tony Pollard was 16th. Not close at all. I will agree he is a better pass catcher, and sure he had 5.3 ypc to Miles' 4.9. But he also broke his leg, which ya know, is a big thing for running backs - staying healthy. "Infinitely better"? And I was the one accused of being hyperbolic. Miles had more rushing touchdowns, less receiving touchdowns. Pollard is ranked right where he should be, a high end RBBC back that won't ever be a bell cow.I can agree with the philosophy of just not paying RBs at all, but Miles Sanders wasn't even close to as good as Pollard last year. Not in any way. Pollard was a clearly better runner, and infinitely better in the passing game. Between this, and some talk in the Bijan thread, I'm starting to think Pollard is still somehow the most underrated RB in the NFL. Frankly, I'd argue he was more deserving of the franchise tag than Saquon was, as Pollard is the better RB.A Ton better? Maybe more so than Montgomery, but he was a shade better than Miles last year.Hey now, non Eagles or Cowboys fan here.As opposed to franchising a RB when everyone else is signing guys for $6m/season max.Don't believe me thats fine

Your Grandmother should probably get an agent then, because Blankenship was 27th among Safeties in coverage grade, and that's the weakest part of his game. For reference point, CJGJ was 44th, though he did have a much larger sample size.

Anyone that watches knows he’s a change of pace RB, and that’s it at this stage. He’s never been asked to carry the load and he wasn’t trusted to by the people who see him every day. That’s before he broke his leg. To say he’s a ton better than Sanders is simply asinine.

I don't think you want to use a health argument when defending Miles Sanders. One of the reasons The Eagles soured on Miles was his availability issues to stay on the field. Its also why I think they never gave him the ball as much as they could've/shoul've as they were afraid he'd get hurt.

It has to be something not well documented. Kid must rub coaches the wrong way or something
Yep. IN fact....has ANY significant injury happened on a similar play? Like ever?
These behemoths have no momentum on the play. It's pure strength. It's simply not nearly as dangerous as it appears, and far less dangerous then the average hit at speed in the open field

While Sanders looked pretty darn electric at times also, I have to agree Pollard is the better back at this point.

Pollard is talent for sure but he’s accomplished little at this point. Over the years there’s been hundreds and hundreds of backs who look great is a change of pace role and than can’t take the full load. Now there’s a broken leg and surgery to consider as well.

Right? What's more dangerous - Jalen Hurts getting pushed for a yard or two from under center or Derrick Henry running into the line from 8 yards back? Gimme a break, people are complaining because they don't like how successful the Eagles were with it. No one can come up with a decent reason why it should be banned. The best reason is the honest one, they just don't like it.
However I have been very consistent giving my support to a total ban on pushing any player, any place on the field from behind. Just don't single out the QB, because then they're targeting one team. If its an unfair advantage at the LOS, then its an unfair advantage *everywhere* for every position.
No one cries when their WR is pushed over the goal line though or their RB needs help getting one more yard for a first down.

You just can't say that about teams for more than the next season anymore. The NFL changes so fast with player movement, salary restrictions, and injuries.
The only teams that really can say that usually have a few things in common. A great front office, a great coach and an all time great at QB and as well as Hurts played last year I am not ready to say that.

Dalvin Cook was drafted 2 years before Sanders was. The only RB the Eagles took in the Cook draft was Donnel Pumphrey, 2 rounds later.A Ton better? Maybe more so than Montgomery, but he was a shade better than Miles last year. And neither of these guys are coming off a broken leg. Simply put, the Eagles don't value the RB position the way Dallas does, as far as both draft capital and salary cap space. Right now they have $16m committed to the position this year due to this philosophy when the results show the last decade of Super Bowl winners invest hardly anything here. I'm all for division rivals, to include the Giants overspend a position when most/rest of the league is smarter than that. Gives the Birds an obvious edge in roster construction.Hey now, non Eagles or Cowboys fan here.As opposed to franchising a RB when everyone else is signing guys for $6m/season max.Don't believe me thats fine

The Eagles were going to Draft Dalvin Cook before Minn jumped ahead of them and took him. SO they took the next best back. I think if they had a Dalvin Cook they'd have tried to keep him and changed their philosophy. Miles was always the 2nd choice. I think his injuries and fumbling issues really soared the team. They don't value RB like others and most NFL teams don't anymore but at the same time it's not like the Eagles have had a top 3 Cow bell back for awhile either.

Most GM's and Coaches have huge egos and some need to be saved from themselves like Howie and Lurie were trying to do to Pederson. I'm sure Doug will coach a bit differently in terms of coaches and holding them more accountable this time around among other issues.
You get Owners like Jerry who want to run the whole show instead of letting the guys in charge do it but he's backed off a bit more,
You got coaches like Chip Kelly who had a huge ego as well.
Just a lot of clashing personalities. It's why you'll see some coaches take reclamation QB projects on like the Mike Vick's of the World, Cam Newton's etc.
It's also how you end up with the Josh McDaniel coaches who think their **** doesn't stink and want to brag about their success elsewhere and how "they had to come back and saved them." and thinks he's god like he takes a chance of over drafting a Tim Tebow.
Then you got Scouts GMS and coaches who just completely miss on how bad a prospect is miss drafting a guy becomes real good do to egos. Happens in all sports.
