The Philadelphia Eagles have glaring holes on the roster. Here’s a little info on Byron Jones and two other potential free agents that can help improve the team.

As we get closer to March 18th and the start of the 2020 free agency period in the NFL, the Philadelphia Eagles appear to have many holes to fill on both sides of the ball. Once things get started, they’re projected to have around $44 Million in cap space and vice president, and general manager Howie Roseman will have more wiggle room than he’s ever had to create or rework contracts.

Regardless of what the cap number is, this Eagles team needs to get younger and faster this offseason, whether it’s done through the draft or in the free agency period. Philadelphia has needs at wide receiver, cornerback, and at linebacker. They could also use another pass rusher and some offensive line depth.

It’s pivotal that the Eagles hit a home run this offseason and add some young less expensive talent. Quarterback Carson Wentz‘s extension means that he’ll be in the fold for a while. In 2020, he only accounts for $18 million against the cap, but that number climbs to $34 million in 2021.

To make long stories short, Philly needs to add talent while Wentz’s cap number is still a reasonable one. Here are three names that we may see on the free agency wire when March rolls around:
