Daily News | Howie Roseman on the Eagles’ offseason: ‘We’re building ... not all-in’
WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Howie Roseman stood with his back to the Atlantic Ocean. The waves crashing upon the beach at The Breakers as the general manager spoke could have symbolized the Eagles’ measured approach to the offseason thus far.
The Eagles had cap space to make moves and they tried. Wide receiver Christian Kirk and safety Marcus Williams received offers, but the Eagles, ultimately, didn’t match the deals the Cardinals and Ravens , respectively, gave the free agents. “You can’t just go into free agency and say, ‘alright, we have a particular need at this position, let’s just sign somebody to feel better about it,’ and that guy’s not good enough,” Roseman said. “Some of the guys that we circled back on … we felt were positions that those guys did a solid job for us in the role that they have, and it takes some of the pressure off.The three first rounders
Roseman didn’t tip his hand as to whether he’ll use all three of his first rounders — picks 15, 16 and 19. There is a belief that he’ll trade back with at least one to create additional first-round capital for the 2023 draft when there are supposed to be more talented quarterbacks. The draft is a possibility, but seems unlikely considering the mixed evaluations on the top prospects and whether any would represent an improvement.
The price for receivers, whether via trade or in free agency, has been exorbitant. There’s still time to add bodies, but the draft is expected to be deep at the position once again. And Roseman’s above statement about increasing targets suggest the Eagles hope to pass more than they did in 2022.While Roseman’s swings in the receiver market went against his normal habits, that he would focus on the defensive line did not.
