Potential Eagles free-agent targets with connections to Nick Sirianni

Eagles HC Nick Sirianni is already familiar with some of 2022’s NFL free-agent class.

Time flies huh? It seems like it just started, but we’re already in year two of the Nick Sirianni era as the Philadelphia Eagles‘ head coach. Is anyone ready to place any wagers or take the over/under on what happens next? He’s seemingly had this ability to overachieve, and that makes the next chapter of his story, one that will be written in 2022, one that we’ll enjoy reading.

Step one is improving a roster that helped Sirianni become the only rookie NFL head coach in 2021 that led his team to the postseason. Now, it’s about making this team better.

The NFL Scouting Combine runs from Tuesday, March 1st until Monday, March 7th. The free-agency period comes after that on March 16th. Interestingly enough, several players that figure to hit the market have ties to the Eagles’ head coach, and you know how coaches like to bring in ‘their guys’.

Marlon Mack is someone that falls in that category, though there’s no reason for Philly to pursue him. Coach was his offensive coordinator for three seasons though from 2018 until 2020. There are other NFL stars that Nick Sirianni knows fairly well too. Some of the following are worth mentioning.

Some of these guys make sense for Philly. Some don’t. Get a load of some of the names that are on this list though. You can argue among yourselves about whether or not they’re worth the investment or a discussion.
