Connor Barwin:

Connor Barwin, a fan favorite, has been speculated to be someone the Eagles could move this off-season. He’s more of a 3-4 outside linebacker who’s had a down year playing as a 4-3 defensive end. He only registered 34 tackles (20 solo 14 assist), five sacks, and one forced fumble during the 2016 season. That’s a drop off from the 54 tackles (44 solo 10 assist) seven sacks, and forced fumble he had in the 3-4 scheme last year.

The Eagles just paid Vinny Curry a boat load of cash, and they seem to want to see him on the field more. Losing Barwin might be worth it in order to get Curry more snaps. Cutting Barwin will save the Eagles $7,750,000 million dollars with only $600,000 in dead cap in 2017, and save $10,250,000 in 2018 with zero dead cap.
