Should the Eagles exercise Derek Barnett's fifth-year option?

One of the decisions that the Philadelphia Eagles will have to make this offseason is whether or not to exercise their fifth-year option on defensive end Derek Barnett, like they did last offseason with Carson Wentz, and with Nelson Agholor in 2018.

The draft or free agency: Where are the Eagles likely to improve each position this offseason?

The Philadelphia Eagles should have a fun offseason to watch, as they are likely to be active in free agency, and are projected to have 10 draft picks. An argument could be made that they need help at every position on the roster, aside from kicker, punter, and long snapper. Here we'll take a look at whether the team is more likely to address each position in free agency, the draft, or both.

Projecting what the Eagles' free agents will make in free agency, and their compensatory pick values

While Howie Roseman and the Philadelphia Eagles had compensatory picks on the brain last offseason, they are highly unlikely to factor them in when making roster decisions in 2020.

Three free agents who make sense for the Eagles, version 3.0

Due to salary cap constraints the last couple of offseasons, the Eagles could not go on spending sprees like they have done in the past under Howie Roseman. In 2020, however, armed with some cap space at their disposal, and needing to plug glaring roster holes, the Eagles are primed to make some noise in free agency.

Over the last four years, I've predicted what the Philadelphia Eagles' next calendar year would look like (in stick figure form), based mostly on logic, and mayyyyybe a little inside knowledge here and there.

Where the Eagles' 2019 season went wrong, part I: Big pass plays allowed

In 2019, including the playoffs, the Philadelphia Eagles allowed 16 pass plays of 40-plus yards, or just a hair under one per game. No team allowed more. To get an idea of what went wrong, I found all of them, in addition to some other big plays that were just shy of 40 yards.
