Demarcus Lawrence, defensive end

To the die-hard Eagles fan, the thought of adding one of the Dallas Cowboys might make you sick (some of you won’t even put Cowboys on your fantasy team), but the addition of Lawrence would be helpful.

His addition to Philly’s roster seems attractive, but theory suggests he’ll re-sign with Dallas even though they don’t seem to be all in on him.

Le’Veon Bell, running back

Le’Veon Bell’s name has been floating around the Novacare Complex for a while in spite of the fact that when these rumors started, he wasn’t even eligible for a trade. Things are different now though. He’s an unrestricted free agent, and rumors of him joining Philly’s roster are starting to pick up again.

Jadeveon Clowney, outside linebacker (and a possible defensive end)

The thoughts of the writer of this piece (Geoffrey A Knox) don’t necessarily reflect the thoughts of the rest of the ITI staff. For instance, I’ve never thought Clowney possessed a high motor. Yes, he’s talented, but he just always seems to be graded a little higher than the results are showing us.

Still, he’ll be one of the more sought after prospects when free agency begins and for good reason.  When he turns it on, he’s a monster. So far, there’s been nothing stated publicly that would suggest Philly’s a possible landing spot.

Nick Foles, quarterback

Does anyone else feel like franchising Foles and, then, trading him would be a much better idea than just letting him go for nothing? From the outside looking in, it seems as though Foles’ market is shrinking, but it still seems as though him leaving is more likely than him being in midnight green next season.

Trey Flowers, defensive end

Recently, rumors of Flowers joining the Eagles have started to pick up. No one would complain if that happened, and we do mean no one. Philly’s got to free up cap space first though.
