6. The Eagles miss on Jadeveon Clowney, Jalen Ramsey Minkah Fitzpatrick, and others.

The jury is still out on this one, but so far, there’s a ton of overwhelming evidence that has been stacked up against Philly. Jadeveon Clowney, Jalen Ramsey, and Minkah Fitzpatrick all represent immediate needs for this Eagles team. All are paying dividends in their new roles with their new teams. None of them found their way to Philadelphia.

Sure, they were all expensive additions, and in the case of Clowney and Ramsey, they need new deals at season’s end, and there are concerns about the scheme fits. Still, if Philly was serious about a real title run, they needed to do something to show they were trying to get better.

They did nothing, and some of the fans may not forgive them for that. Grade: C-
