Eagles News: Deshaun Watson for NFC East?

Let’s go to Philadelphia Eagles links …

If DeShaun Watson is traded, these are the teams that need him most – SB Nation
Washington Football Team. Why it makes sense: this is a playoff team, with an elite defense and offensive weapons enough that they are almost a quarterback from making a big attack. Washington has plenty of room for boats, which means they could pay for Watson AND still get one or two guns for free. Why it doesn’t work: The biggest hurdle for Watson in Houston is dysfunction and, although the ship has been stabilized under Ron Rivera, this is still one of the most dysfunctional teams in the NFL. Would Watson be happy? It is hard to say.

Watson to Wentz? A look at the (unlikely) possibility of trading – 94WIP
There is a world where Texans are convinced that Wentz can be fixed, and that if they are going to lose Watson, bringing Wentz is as consoling a price as they will get in terms of players in a deal back by their franchise quarterbacks. As will be the case throughout the off-season, the key will be an assessment by the Wentz team. If they still believe, money / choices will not be an issue.

Deshaun Watson frustrated with Texans general manager, hiring process for head coach – Battle Red Blog
At this point, it no longer seems accidental. It seems almost intentional that the Texans have blatantly ignored the wishes of their star player, despite promising to fulfill them beforehand. Deshaun Watson’s refusal to communicate with the team is now a completely appropriate response for an organization as hypocritical as this. While the culprit for these actions is currently unknown, some have already guessed who should take the blame.

Deshaun Watson dissatisfied with Texans – over the cap
How much would Texans want for Watson? It would have to be a lot. I’ve seen some people say the first choice in the draft, but that wouldn’t be nearly enough. The first thing to consider is that Watson is a sure bet. He is one of the top 5 QBs in the NFL. I don’t care what Trevor Lawrence’s supposed advantage is – it’s still a bet and it would be an expensive bet too. While we can look at the rookie contract as cheap (Lawrence’s contract will average $ 9 million a year on average), once we look at those $ 27 million prepaid at Watson, we’ll basically sink about $ 16 million per year for the next 4 years in Lawrence in a straight trade. This is still accessible, but who would you rather be? The team holding Watson for less than $ 30 million a year for the next five years or the team with Lawrence for $ 16 million for the next 4?

Todd McShay’s mock sketch presents an unlikely result for the Eagles – BGN
I am very confident that the Eagles will not break this 42-year streak in April. This organization clearly does not value the position enough to occupy a position in the first round, much less in the 6th overall position. Some will argue that Parsons should be the exception to the Eagles’ rule. Few will disagree that he is an intriguing talent and that Philly needs help in the position. But there will be other opportunities to adequately address this point. On the other hand, there will not be so many opportunities to purchase a wide receiver that makes a difference. By the way, it’s really crazy how McShay’s mockery makes the Eagles pass by Ja’Marr Chase, who may not even make it to Philly’s selection! Having Parsons instead of Chase would be crazy.

What the hell did Doug Pederson do to Carson Wentz? – NBCSP
In fact, Wentz should be grateful to Pederson for helping him become one of the top seven or eight NFL quarterbacks before the start of last season. It is really hard to imagine what Pederson could have done for Wentz between the end of 2019 and the end of 2020 for things to come apart this way. And if Wentz sees that staying on the bench when he was statistically the worst NFL defender is some kind of breach of trust, he needs to look in the mirror and accept the fact that he deserves to sit down. Pederson was not perfect. He didn’t have a great year, that’s obvious. But there is nothing he did that would justify Wentz to respond in the way he did.

Rebuilding the defense is important among off-season plans – PE.com
As the eagles evaluate for 2021, what do they have in the secondary? Avonte Maddox must be healthy and the Eagles need to find out where he is most successful – nickel cornerback? External cornerback? Safety? – and pray that he stays on the pitch – his snap and game count has decreased in each of his three seasons. Nickell Robey-Coleman signed a one-year contract in the free agency period of 2020. The same happened with security / cornerback / hybrid Jalen Mills. Are they back in 2021? What about safety Rodney McLeod, who suffered a torn ACL at the end of the season? Can eagles count on him for 2021? As a whole, then, the defense offers so many questions. The first step is to find the right coordinator and decide which scheme is best for the staff here. Or, in the face of all doubts, what is the best defense for the coordinator and bring in the right people to fit the scheme. This is a great project, which includes all three levels of defense. It is not a plug-and-play situation.

Bald eagle pairs found in all NJ counties, first time in 40 years of monitoring – NBC Philadelphia
Pairs of bald eagles were found last year in all 21 New Jersey counties, something never before documented in more than 40 years of monitoring by wildlife officials and volunteers, according to a report released on Thursday. The New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection released the report, revealing that researchers found a record 220 pairs of nesting eagles that produced 307 chicks last year. Another 28 pairs were screened in the nests, but did not lay eggs. The report is in line with a well-established trend for the recovery of the bald eagle population across the country, which was severely threatened in the 1970s and 1980s due to habitat destruction and widespread use of DDT.

Report: The Dallas Cowboys fired defensive coordinator Mike Nolan after a year with the team – Blogging The Boys
Throughout the season, the Cowboys allowed more important points and performances to be scored against them than most groups have ever prepared for the franchise. The players expressed frustration with the scheme and it seemed that it was too much to go back in 2021. Often, in these situations, whoever is at the top is the one who has to pay for it and that is what happened with the defense. It was reported late on Friday that the Cowboys fired defensive coordinator Mike Nolan.

Poll: Should the Giants keep Jason Garrett as an offensive coordinator or move on? – Big Blue View
How much of this is Garrett’s fault? How much can be linked to Saquon Barkley’s injury at the end of the season? The pandemic that destroyed the off-season? The learning curve of a sophomore quarterback and a young offensive line? The lack of dynamic receiving weapons? Coach Joe Judge avoided questions about his coaching staff at his season-ending press conference. Gettleman said that about Garrett. “As far as Jason’s potential goes, it makes you a little impatient, of course. Imagine, anyone, any of you, having your fourth editor in four years. It’s the same thing. Is no different. We will adjust and adapt and do what we have to do and obviously anything we do going forward, Daniel is a big part of that. We are certainly aware of this piece, to answer your question. ”The Giants seem to want to go the way of establishing schematic continuity and updating staff whenever possible, before forcing the third year quarterback to learn a fourth offensive system in four years.

Washington fans feeling good as the team prepares to face the privateers’ favorites on Saturday – Hogs Haven
Tampa Bay, which entered the playoffs as the best wildcard team after losing twice to the New Orleans Saints and finishing second in the NFC South, are 8 points in favor of the NFC East champion Washington Football Team. Washington fans are not really concerned about that. After two decades of Dan Snyder’s embarrassing ownership and a decade of Bruce Allen’s awkward “management”, there is a feeling, which came with the arrival of Ron Rivera, Jason Wright and others, that the franchise may have finally turned a corner. when turning the operation, on and off the field, to competent football people.

A complete story of the mediocre victory of the NFL division champions in the Wild-Card round – The Ringer
Washington made it to the playoffs with a losing record. The Tampa Bay Bucs have looked like the league class a few times this year. Still, here are nine reasons why you shouldn’t exclude the home team this Saturday.

Ten touches, 107 playoff games, one stage: Which ‘old’ QB has the best chance in the Super Bowl? – ESPN
If Ben Roethlisberger says it’s okay, then go ahead and call these NFL playoffs the “old” year. And Big Ben isn’t even the oldest. The five oldest NFL quarterbacks are still playing, while some of the future stars, like Kyler Murray and Deshaun Watson, are at home watching. This postseason, which begins on Saturday with the wild card weekend, marks the first time that five quarterbacks aged 37 and over will start in the same playoffs in NFL history. This is Tom Brady (43), Drew Brees (41), Philip Rivers (39), Roethlisberger (38) and Aaron Rodgers (37).

Why epidemiologists are so concerned with the new Covid-19 variants, in 2 graphics – Vox
A most contagious SARS-CoV-2 virus is the most deadly. Not because it makes any individual sicker, but because it affects more people. More illness means more cases: more mild cases, more severe cases, more long-term complications, more hospitalizations and more deaths. There is no perfect estimate of how much more contagious the SARS-CoV-2 variant called B.1.1.7, which was first discovered in the UK, can be. There needs to be more careful laboratory work on animals to get it right, which can take a few more weeks. But preliminary estimates indicate that it is between 30% and 70% more contagious. This variant is emerging all over the world: in the United States, Europe, Asia and elsewhere. It is especially worrying, considering that in the United States and elsewhere, the spread of the pandemic is still reaching new heights.
