NFL Open Agency:
Should the Eagles avoid the security, should be handed over to the linebacker markets with ridiculous money?

With the aggressive wheeling and dealing of league legal tampering, the Eagles may have some off-limits requirements.
While the Eagles were aggressive in addressing their most notable holes on Monday, the team still has a lot of work to do this week. Linebacker and safety spots require upgradation depth, but in both cases, free eagles can be forced to wait for those players to add.
Washington Redskins gave former Giant Security Landon Collins $ 84 million deal to start a competition for his open agent spending, making it a steep roof for the market of the situation. On linebacker, both Quan Alexander and CJ Moses have reported large-scale contracts with new teams. Alexander will deal with the San Francisco 49ers for a four-year $ 54 million deal, while Mosley will settle with Jets for five years, $ 85 million.
While the Eagles were connected to Mosley at one point, their market clearly went beyond their comfort level. Eagles could use an upgrade in the middle linebacker, or even the outside linebacker, if Nigel Brady had to move in. Nevertheless, the team does not have to make huge investments in that situation. In fact, spending premium money in the situation will be against the long-term team practice at the linebacker spot.
Perhaps the best thing will be done by waiting for the market to determine the eagle in the middle of the price of Jordan Hicks. If Hicks's interest exceeds his expectations, then the Eagles can add a middle-level or travel-level player to compete for an early job.
LJ for team friendly, short-term deals Players such as Fort, Josh Bains, and Adrian Taylor may be available. Cap Barrons and Jamie Collins, like Cap Casualties, can be a later option in the free agency if they have not ended immediately by the occasional contracts.
The safety situation for the Eagles is an interesting place, because Team Rodney is planning to retain McLeod. The squad reworked McLoad's deal, which will end after the next season.
Eagle was not added due to presence on McLeod's lineup or salary cap. The team could take McLoad in the third defense role, because he enters a lame season battling knee injury.
The security free agent class is as deep as ever. If Eagles were fascinated by the talent in the open market, then the front office could probably approach the patient. The market has flooded, which should give Eagle's options later in the week, even though the likes of Earl Thomas, Tashon Gipson, and Ha-Ha Clinton-Dixes have led somewhere else. Jehelle Ade, Marcus Gilchrist, and Tre Boston may be available later in the week.

If the Eagles decide the market for both security and linebacker, then they can also hold of the draft.
