I think you go for the Super Bowl this season, what’s tough is jalen is extremely popular in the locker room. If he starts to show top 5 potential I’m more open but if not I think QB contracts are contention killers. I truly believe it’s an era where the contracts of other positions are so largely different than QB that you’re almost better off signing 3-4 impact players for the price of a QB.
Rookie QB contracts are gold. Especially rookie QB contracts of QBs playing at a top 15 level
So in the scenario where jalen doesn’t show top 5 potential. Which he has at times but he’s looked top 15 others. I draft a qb. Young, stroud or Levis will be there
Trade jalen for a hefty sum, and draft more impact players, sign more impact players. Take a step back and contend again in 2 years. I believe in sirianni and howie so I’d trust another contender in a couple years
Having said that, jalen is incredibly popular in that lockerroom. And will Anderson is out of this world. So if jalen can finish the year looking top 8 or higher then I can live with getting will anderson
Regardless I don’t see philly contending next season, they’re going to lose a few guys and will have to replace them. Hoping to keep CJGJ, edwards and Kyzir white. The other free agents I don’t care too much. They’re playing well but they’re in their 30s. I want to keep building the young core
