Should the Eagles try to extend Jordan Matthews' contract?

by Jimmy Kempski

During the 2016 offseason, the first opportunity they got, the Eagles proactively signed two players from their 2013 draft class -- OT Lane Johnson and TE Zach Ertz -- to long-term contract extensions in January. The Ertz and Johnson deals kicked off Howie Roseman's eventful first offseason after returning from "Storage B" of the NovaCare Complex.

Still, with 114 days to go before the 2017 NFL Draft, that won't stop us from posting what everyone (OK, mostly everyone) loves to read... an Eagles-only mock draft.
