2025 NFL offseason grades: Draft, trades, more moves by team – ESPN
Philadelphia Eagles: B+. The Eagles made several trades. I was not a fan of flipping Gardner-Johnson and a sixth-round pick to the Texans for Green and a 2026 fifth-round pick. On the other hand, they did very well to get a fifth-round pick and backup quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson from the Browns in exchange for fellow QB Kenny Pickett. And I thought the deal sending Bryce Huff to the 49ers was a win-win considering Huff clearly didn’t fit in Philadelphia. The Eagles made a few low-key, solid free agent additions in edge rushers Joshua Uche (whose 19% pressure rate in 2022 was the highest in a season since ESPN began tracking the stat in 2017) and Azeez Ojulari, and cornerback Adoree’ Jackson.

By the time that contract expires, Johnson will be tied with a teammate who recently retired — edge rusher Brandon Graham — as the longest-tenured Eagle in franchise history. Johnson doesn’t take such an honor lightly, but also knows he isn’t an ageless marvel. “Yeah, if there’s anybody to end a tie with it would be BG (Brandon Graham). It’s crazy that we had a number of guys who all stayed together for all these years,” Johnson said during an appearance on Good Morning Football Wednesday. “Yeah, it doesn’t feel like No. 13 but here it is. I still feel young in heart, but you can’t ignore Father Time. I’m still having fun and enjoying what I do. I love being around the guys, competing and it’s just something that I really love doing every minute of it.”
Taking a closer look at linebacker competition in 2025 training camp – NBCSP
In his first year as a full-time starter, Nakobe Dean played really well. He was the Eagles’ starting MIKE linebacker and finally fulfilled his potential as a third-round steal from the 2022 draft. He had 128 tackles, 9 TFLs, 3 sacks and an interception in the regular season. Unfortunately, Dean’s season ended in the wild-card round when he tore his patellar tendon against the Packers.

He could start on the PUP list and miss at least four games. This is also a contract year for Dean.

Tristan Wirfs to miss start of the season after undergoing surgery – Bucs Nation
As far as who could replace Wirfs, the Bucs signed veteran tackle Charlie Heck in the offseason and he figures to have a good shot at being that guy. Heck split time with the Cardinals and 49ers last season where he started two games. He has 23 starts in his career.

Dead money evaluation, Part II: How the Cowboys rank and how it impacts their ability to win games – Blogging The Boys
We’ve talked about many instances that the Eagles, regardless of all their current success, are enjoying with hearth. If a few of their dangerous contracts flip into pumpkins, they’re going to be extra uncovered due to the high-cost monetary dedication they’ve made to them.
