Eagles offseason trade candidates, and hypothetical compensation - PhillyVoice
DT Fletcher Cox. Overall, Roseman had a good 2021, but the one major misstep that he made was restructuring Cox’s contract instead of dealing him for a valuable asset prior to the 2021 season. Because of the complexity of the restructure (it was actually more like two restructures — in 2021 and proactively in 2022), it took the great Jason Fitzgerald of OverTheCap.com 25 minutes to try to explain it below. Good luck digesting this. [...] The short-short version of that video is that whether the Eagles cut, trade, or keep Cox in 2022, they found creative ways of dumping Cox’s cap charges into the 2023 season, when the cap is expected to rise substantially.
