So lucky for PSU that there was no room for him in the Rutgers backfield.

do you think this was part of the deal to get him to sit that last game and not go for the record?

No.

Just think how much he would have made on an NIL deal.

I coached high school ball here in NY and one of my best friends in the business was Dave Gettleman (who coached at Spackenkill and then Kingston) before working his way up the ladder in the NFL. While his career as NYG GM didn't end well, he was 100% correct on Barkley, declaring his "hand was touched by God."

I’d be surprised if Baun doesn’t return. Fangio and Howie gave him his big break, he’s a proven star in that defense and that team is positioned to win another title in the coming few years.

That's pretty funny to listen to. "People in Philly, sometimes we over emotional and say things we don't mean"

I still think Milton Williams might be >than Baun but they are close SB showed to me, how much pressure he can take off the D but holding the ball or scoring points.

The Patriots, Commies or another team will throw crazy money at Williams. Look at the young Dallas DT who just got $20 million a year. That’s now the floor with Williams.

Sadly, I think Roseman knew long ago that Philly would be priced out of both Dlinemen.

I think the great inside players are harder to find. Otoh we let Hargrove ( sp) walk and that worked out ok. I think as soon as Carter is eligible for an extension they should work that out ( I think it’s after yr 3).
I remember some thinking Milton Willians was a bust

1st round draft picks, per the Rookie Scale Extension, can sign an extension between the end of their 3rd season and the day before the 4th season begins.

Elite players are looking for a huge increase in their 2nd contract. In that context, there is some advantage (financially) for the team in not signing them to an extension after the 3rd season, and picking up the 5th year option. The team is trying to balance that financial advantage, and the team's overall position regarding the cap, with keeping their elite players content -- not always an easy balancing act.

The Eagles have back to back high first round picks at DT in Carter and Davis. They have to let those guys shine now. It’s why they made the picks.

Williams is a great story, but I do believe he benefitted playing next to Carter, who commanded constant double teams. The team signing him may find that he’s less productive if depended upon to carry the load on his own.

Carter is a generational talent. That’s obvious. Williams is a good player, but nowhere near as productive without Carter’s shadow.

Bring back Slay at reduced $$, bring back Rodgers at ??, elevate Ringo ... Howie has a lot of decisions to make at CB

 

[Tom McAndrew]

 

[s1uggo72]

Bring back Ike? Bring back Javon?

49ers will cut Javon Hargrave on Wednesday

As expected, 49ers defensive tackle Javon Hargrave will hit free agency next week.
