Eagles GM Howie Roseman: Adding Saquon Barkley was ‘way to zig when everyone’s zagging’ - NFL.com

“From our perspective, you get to a situation where you kind of try to find, is something being undervalued?” Philadelphia’s general manager Howie Roseman told Adam Schein last week on Mad Dog Sports Radio. “Is there a way to zig when everyone’s zagging? Or I don’t know if it’s the opposite, and you’re freakin’ zagging when zigging. But I think that it’s hard to find difference-making players and people, and it’s hard to find them for a cost. Those guys, they go for a lot of money, and we felt like there was an opportunity to get one of those guys in Saquon and bring him to the team.
