Scott Dierking Posted January 23, 2019 Share Posted January 23, 2019 Could do worse. Philly Voice's Jimmy Kempski doesn't expect the Eagles to re-sign impending free agent DE Brandon Graham. Graham turns 31 in April and very well could be looking at his final payday in the league. Kempski doesn't believe the Eagles will be able to offer him the most money, leading to Graham walking as a free agent. Graham is a hero in Philly after his strip-sack in last year's Super Bowl win, but the Eagles have depth at the position with Derek Barnett, Michael Bennett, Chris Long, and 2018 fourth-rounder Josh Sweat. Graham was Pro Football Focus' No. 6-ranked 4-3 end in 2018. Source: Philly Voice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s 31 but I’ve always liked him and he will most likely ACTUALLY hit the market. I’ve been targeting him as an actual short term option that will shake free. Sure younger is ideal but I don’t think it’s realistic to expect many younger players to be available and not resigned by their current team. We could use solid veteran/super bowl winning experience in the lockeroom too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUT, if you can do a smart deal here, it gives flexibility in how you approach the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely more expensive also. Hindsight Pepper Johnson says that is who he wanted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
