  • Eagles not picking up Jernigan's option

    Am I missing something here? After Cox, they have a bunch of borderline roster guys. They would need to draft a DT even with Jernigan on the roster.

    I heard they are renegotiating with him, correct?

        he's really expensive for a run stuffing DT and hasn't been healthy since they got him. Plus that vague injury issue was weird.

        Ultimately, he's due a roster bonus based on that option soon and he either needed to renegotiate or get cut. They may ultimately resign him, but absent a new deal, he wasn't gonna stay.

        They may also be clearing room for a Foles move - which i don't really think is worth the effort, but maybe Howie does?

          Unless the eagles are going to somehow get a player like Jernigan back in any deal. Foles for defensive line help (maybe with a year or two left on a deal) and maybe a pick?

            Unless he can lower his cap # I'd rather cut him than keep him for his current salary.

            this draft is stupid stacked on DL.

              what's a player like Jernigan worth in 2019, exactly? he barely played last year b/c of injury. 2 tackles?

              You can find guys who can't get on the field on the free agent market for league minimum.

                Good. They need to draft for quantity on the DL and quality at RB.
