Eagles salary cap: Positional breakdowns and financial outlook ahead of NFL free agency

Here’s an early look at the Philadelphia Eagles’ salary cap, positional breakdowns, and financial outlook ahead of 2024 NFL free agency

The Eagles are set for an interesting retool on defense that’ll include a new defensive coordinator and potentially seven new starters in critical positions.

Philadelphia will enter the offseason with a disgruntled Haason Reddick, followed by decisions on 20 pending free agents, including D’Andre Swift, Fletcher Cox, Brandon Graham, Braden Mann, Quez Watkins, and others.

The Eagles currently have about $19 million in salary cap space and the No. 22 overall pick in April’s NFL draft.

How can the Eagles maximize their salary cap space this offseason?

We’re looking at several different ways the Philadelphia Eagles can best maximize their salary cap space during the 2024 NFL offseason

The 2024 NFL offseason is underway for Philadelphia, and the Eagles’ focus will shift to reshaping the roster to fit two new coordinators on both sides of the ball.

The 2024 cap is expected to exceed $240 million, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, and where things currently stand, Philadelphia is expected to have roughly $20,284,984 in cap space.

The Birds are set to have 20 pending free agents, and with another likely retool schedule on defense, the organization could conjure up a scheme for more flexibility.

According to Over the Cap’s potential transaction chart, the Eagles can easily create $35.4 million in cap space by making these five moves.

With the new league year fast approaching, we’re looking at the multiple ways Philadelphia GM Howie Roseman can create and manipulate salary cap space.

Joel Corry of CBS Sports recently looked inside at key offseason dates starting with the first week of the 2024 league year, which begins March 13.

Some dates will free up cap space for Philadelphia, while other dates will force GM Howie Roseman to make some hard decisions.

Marcus Mariota spent one season as the backup to Jalen Hurts. If GM Howie Roseman had decided to extend the former No. 2 overall pick, the Birds could have gained over $2 million in salary cap space.

Instead, after allowing a 4:00 PM EST deadline to pass, Mariota will add $3 million to Philadelphia’s dead cap hit for 2024, and there could be more in the coming weeks.
