The frenzy is seemingly over now. Let’s all take a closer look at each of the Philadelphia Eagles’ roster moves following the first wave of NFL free agency.

The smoke is clear. The dust has settled. The frenetic portion of the NFL‘s “Free Agency Frenzy” is behind us, and while we try to determine how we feel about Malcolm Jenkins‘ time with the Philadelphia Eagles being over, we also turn our attention to some of the other notable moves the other 31 teams have made.

Tom Brady is no longer with the New England Patriots. That’s huge. Drew Brees will stay with the New Orleans Saints. That too is a game-changer if you’re a fan of any team in the NFC South. If you’re an Eagles fan, you probably don’t care though.

All you’re probably concerned with is the moves they did or didn’t make and what happens now that they’ve brought these new faces in.

Let’s start a couple of arguments. Here are grades for the guys that were brought in and the guys that they retained. Also, while we’re all on the subject, let’s talk about three very big moves that they didn’t make. Don’t tell mom, but the kids get report cards today. We begin with those acquisitions Philly made during the “frenzy”.
