Gearing up for Eagles free agency: running back options, big decisions to make, bad week for Philly’s rivals, more

NFL free agency is almost here! The Eagles have already gotten a jump on things with some contract extensions. Philadelphia is also already involved in trade rumors as well. John Stolnis and I got together to talk about the Eagles news in this week’s BGN Radio episode (CLICK HERE TO LISTEN). Topics include:

IT’S HOWIE SZN

• Thoughts on new contracts for Brandon Graham, Jason Kelce, and Isaac Seumalo
• BLG defends BLG (shocker!)
• Looking at how much cap space the Eagles have now and what they can still free up
• What could the Eagles be looking to do with the money they’re freeing up?

MICHAEL BENNETT’S FUTURE

• Why would the Eagles be considering trading him?
• It seems like it’s more complicated than people on the outside realize

WON’T BE RUNNING OUT OF RB OPTIONS

• The Eagles have a lot of directions they can go in at running back
• Should the Eagles trade for Duke Johnson? How about Jordan Howard? Both? Neither?
• Which free agent running back do you want the Eagles to sign?
• Is Le’Veon Bell a realistic possibility?

WHAT HAPPENS WITH NELSON AGHOLOR?

• What’s the most likely outcome when it comes to Nelly? Trade? Cut? Contract extension?
• What do the Eagles do at wide receiver if Agholor isn’t back?

NO CARSON WENTZ EXTENSION COMING THIS YEAR?

• Should the Eagles be in a rush to re-sign Wentz?
• What’s going on with the Nate Sudfeld situation? Who do you want backing up Wentz in 2019?
• Making the case for Ryan Fitzpatrick and another veteran backup

BAD WEEK FOR THE EAGLES’ RIVALS

• It wasn’t a good week for the Cowboys, Giants, and Washington
• The Eagles have the smartest front office in the division

NO NICK FOLES MARKET?

• It really seems like it’s Jaguars or bust for Foles
• What happens if Jacksonville doesn’t give him the money he wants? Is that the point where he might just retire?
