Hey Eagles fans, check out these highlight reels of Brandon Graham
Philadelphia Eagles fans will want to check out this Brandon Graham highlight reel. He’s ‘smiling from ear to ear’, and so are we.
Ladies and gentlemen, the Philadelphia Eagles and their executive vice president of football operations, Howie Roseman have done it again. It seems like, every year, all we hear about is the salary cap and how ‘The Birds’ aren’t going to be able to be players in free agency. Every year, they find a way. On Friday, the Eagles brass pulled off what we thought was impossible. They kept Brandon Graham in the nest.
Ian Rapoport was among the first to report on the deal that ensures ‘B.G.’ will remain in Philly for, at least, three more seasons. Take a look:
My understanding is this deal comes in at between $12M and $14M per year. Strong for Graham, who now gets to stay home. https://t.co/lulc5mmFiJ

To the Philadelphia Eagles fan, there’s no reason to have to introduce Dave Spadaro or to try and come up with an explanation on who he is. Shortly after the ink dried on Graham’s new deal, the Eagles Insider had tracked him down for a conversation.
Here’s the result:

Anyone who follows Inside The Iggles knows this story well, but for the sake of this story, you’ll need to hear it again.
It was the 2010 NFL Draft. ‘The Birds’ were having some issues with replacing one of the greatest players in Eagles history, Brian Dawkins, at safety (understandably so). Philly traded up to acquire the 13th-overall pick. At the time, we though they were doing so to draft Earl Thomas.
We should have known better. Andy Reid, who historically either took an offensive lineman or a defensive lineman in the first round, again went with a lineman. This time, it was a defensive end. His name was Brandon Graham.
It’s safe to say that one turned out pretty well for ‘The Birds’. Highlights anyone? This one comes courtesy of Brotherly Love Productions on YouTube.

Here’s another clip, and it’s from the Eagles themselves. By now, you’ve probably figured out that they’ve gotten pretty good at piecing these together. Again, they didn’t disappoint.

Next. Brandon Graham receives some high praise from Joe Thomas. dark
Don’t adjust your television sets. It’s true. Graham is staying in Philly, and business has definitely picked up.
