The Philadelphia Eagles have a ton of starters locked in for next season. But there are still a few key players that could potentially be suited up somewhere else next year.

The Philadelphia Eagles have a shorter offseason than 30 other teams this year. In a little over a month, they will have to make some big decisions concerning some key players that are set to take the free agency market this spring. Although it is doubtful that the Eagles spend big on players this year, unlike previous seasons. There are some guys of their own that they may want to pay to stay.

To put it nicely, the Eagles do not have much wiggle room when it comes to cap space. In fact, they have one of the worst cap situations in the NFL currently. For good reason, of course, Howie Roseman and Joe Douglas decided to lock in a few guys early on in the season for a long future with the Eagles.

Now with free agency approaching in March, there will be some players that are looking for a payday of their own. Although the Super Bowl contending factor could really help keep players on board for a pay cut, it doesn’t always necessarily work out that way. So let’s analyze the Eagles free agent situation moving forward.
