Just gotta bring Barnett's $10m figure down to like $6m or so with the extension. That will free up $4m or so. Plus you have these moves for similar range of relief

Cuts:
$4.5m - Goodwin
$4.5m - Jackson
$5m - Ertz

That shaves about $18-20m off.

The Malik/Alshon restructures will be key. I want to see the relief we'll get on those.

-Looks like salaries were Alshon 18.5 and Malik 13.5.

-If just cut, Alshon 10.5 and Malik 12.6 dead money.

-Before season ended, they restructured, speculate two year deal of 2021 min and 2022 like $20 million.

-The Eagles cut both as their two designated June 1 cuts, so the 2022 is not guaranteed.

-As a result, 2021 cap charges are Alshon 4.6 and Malik 6.4.

*That takes their $32 million combined above to only $11 million combined.

-On June 2, the charges reduce to Alshon 3.6 and Malik 5.4, saving another million.

The downside, in 2022, Alshon should have a cap charge of $5 million and Malik $9 million.

-so if they were just cut, they would have had 2021 cap charges of 10.5 and 12.6 dead money.

Now, they will count for dead money of 3.6 and and 5.4 in 2021 and 5 and 9 in 2022.

-Bottom line: They went from a 23.1 dead cap combo in 2021 to an adjusted 9 million in 2021 and 14 million in 2022.

These are not reported numbers, but estimates based on cap understanding.

I was real concerned after that vicious spear he took to the back of the head in last years’ playoff. Say what you will, but he’s never been the same since. TBI can be subtle, but permanent.

Howie messed up by extending him, but he deserves credit for admitting his mistake and quickly moving off it. At least he was able to recoup a couple nice picks in the process. If Howie can get back to drafting well, we'll be back ontop in due time.

Howie’s drafting history has been fairly poor and the amount of terrible decisions and over reactionary, over correction garbage Howie has pulled has been astonishingly bad from both a process and results standpoint.

There are many examples but just to pick a few - liked Carson meshing with young WRs after a solid late playoff push two years ago (only made possible due to our terrible division) so decided to build around a young WR core.

Decided to not address speed in any way for years on offense when fans were clamoring for it, thinking a two tight-end offense would be feasible, or that Arcega Whiteside would be a good pick, and then decided to swing the opposite direction drafting based off a 40 times ranking list the next year.

Not taking Justin Jefferson because Reagor fit the offense better (again, due to the fact that his stupid ass pigeon holed himself into needing to pick a fast outside WR in the first round).

Trading a premium package for Darius Slay after missing on Byron Jones because he decided we needed a high caliber CB in response to the fact that we were getting beat deep a lot even though we had an above average defense for years with cheap CBs and absolutely no help from Howie’s drafting.

Multiple terrible midseason trades for players that his coaching staffs could not remotely use effectively

Jeffery extension. Elliott extension. Bad decision after bad decision.

And lmaooooooo at Donnel Pumphrey.

The man has been terrible and so bad at his job we have basically no good young players in the pipeline and are in a terrible cap position.

The lengths you go and spinzone attempts to try and criticize Hinkie for certain things, but then claim Roseman will have us in a good place, is truly astonishing. He has made a mockery of the Eagles for a few years now with his horrible mismanagement and Lurie and Howie’s seeming lack of acknowledgement of truly how bad of a job he has done was very alarming and does not give me much hope.
