Drake London a good player, but that's an awful lot.

Do you think the Philly fans are saying “Thank God we got that 2028 first round pick”

Actually, they are. They were afraid that Howie would have to settle for a '28 2nd-rounder, period, because no other team wanted the dude at his price.

You already know the why: Stumpy.

We are whining over a 5th rounder at most. I like the deal. As always, we have folks who think that they could have negotiated a better deal. The biggest issue seems to be Boutte's hard feelings and his potential unwillingness to want to stay as a backup.

Let the competition between Williams and Boutte as a backup to Brown begin.

RUMORS
1) PHI wanted a 2026 1st plus a 2nd and a player.
2) Then they wanted a 2206 1st.
3) Then they wanted no less that a 2027 1st and 3rd; then a 1st and 3rd, then a 2nd and 3rd, then a 2nd and 4th

THE DEAL
Would you all rather have given the 2027 2nd and 4th or a 2028 1st and a 2027 5th?

What a ridiculous over-pay for Herbig. He's not worth $25M/yr. Guy only had 29 total pressures. Absolutely f'in ridiculous.

2028 2nd-rounder. Period. If Howie refuses then he can ****. Off.
