Eagles mailbag: Thoughts on Sidney Jones, the cheating Patriots, and more

by Jimmy Kempski

In our weekly Eagles chat this week, there were a lot of questions that we could not get to in time or other questions we did answer but could use more color. And so, let's do a mailbag post to answer some of the overflow, as well as some emails I've received.

Eagles will have to get under the salary cap without the benefit of trades

by Jimmy Kempski

One logical way for the Eagles to help themselves get under the salary cap would be via trades that help save cap space. For example, a trade of Nick Foles would save the team $5.2 million against the cap. A trade of Vinny Curry, again just for example, would save $5 million. Unfortunately for the Eagles, agreed upon trades made prior to the start of the new league year cannot be executed until the new league year begins. According to league rules, every team must be below the cap by the new league year, sans the cap relief achieved by trades.

If the Eagles trade Nick Foles, is Nate Sudfeld ready to be the No. 2 QB?

by Jimmy Kempski

When the Philadelphia Eagles lost Carson Wentz for the remainder of the season in Week 14, they had an opportunity to look around for quarterbacks to potentially add to the roster, in case they had any questions at all about backup Nick Foles or No. 3 quarterback Nate Sudfeld.

5 players the Eagles could select with their first round pick: Defense edition

by Jimmy Kempski

In previous years, it was much easier to pinpoint Eagles targets in the first round. This year, there will be a bit more dart-throwing when it comes to predicting the Eagles' first round pick. Still, we'll note 5 guys on defense who would make some sense.
