Also though, their cap space isn't likely to be that expansive this coming year. That $17 million figure does not include the franchise tag figure that they just slapped on Corey Simon. That should eat up a good $6 million. Plus, they need to resign Trotter, Brian Westbrook, and Tra Thomas, who should all command high dollars. Plus Jermaine Mayberry who is worth a pretty penny (or replace him). Both Buckhalter and Dorsey Levens are free agents, so they'll probably go after a Najeh Davenport or somebody like that. And upcoming DE Derrick Burgess will cost a little, on the heels of his great postseason. If they do go for Moose, who would command like a $10 million signing bonus, it would probably finally put them up against the salary cap. Let's keep an eye on the Eagles' offseason. It could finally be the beginning of the end.
