After all, the Eagles will have upward of 20 free agents beginning next month, and most of them will not be returning due to the NFL’s salary cap.
“I think we have obviously a large number of free agents that we knew going in,” Roseman said. “And we always look at this team over not just this year, but over a period of time. We knew we needed to get additional picks.”
All Roseman needs to do for an example is look at his counterpart in Kansas City in Chiefs general manager Brett Veach, a former University of Delaware running back/wide receiver. Veach got the Chiefs back to the Super Bowl even after trading their best wide receiver, Tyreek Hill, last summer.
