NFL free agency 2022: Contract details for Philadelphia Eagles signings
The Eagles made one splash in free agency, agreeing to a deal with Haason Reddick, but there were several other value signings that should help continue the three-year retool.
Even with the dead money from the Fletcher Cox release, the Eagles still have $20 million in cap space, and plenty of flexibility thanks to Howie Roseman.
The science is how the Eagles GM shapes a deal, and here are the contract details for the first wave of free agency via Over The Cap.
Breaking down the #Philadelphia #Eagles moves through first wave of #NFL free agency
Outside of landing Haason Reddick, the Philadelphia Eagles have been quiet in free agency, choosing fiscal responsibility over the big named signings that many teams around the league have engaged in.
In all, Philadelphia made less than 10 moves in the first wave of free agency, but Howie Roseman is also counting the extensions for Jordan Mailata,Josh Sweat, Dallas Goedert and Avonte Maddox as big time moves in their own right.
With the first wave of NFL free agency completed, here’s a look at Howie Roseman’s initial moves.
The #Eagles re-signed one of their own in 2022 #NFL free agency by agreeing to terms with safety Anthony Harris.
Strong safety Anthony Harris, the former Vikings’ franchise player who spent last season with the Eagles, is returning to Philadelphia on a one-year deal, per source.
The Eagles top free agents have yet to draw any significant interest on the open market, but the suitors will be coming and it’ll be interesting to see what guys like Derek Barnett or Steven Nelson will land on the open market.
Here’s a look at the projected market value for some of the Eagles’ top free agents, via Pro Football Focus.
Georgia Bulldogs safety Lewis Cine is projected to be a high pick in the 2022 NFL draft. He has been compared to Minnesota Vikings free safety Anthony Harris.
Georgia Bulldogs safety Lewis Cine played an outstanding game in the national championship. Cine rose to the occasion when it mattered the most and was named the defensive player of the game for his seven-tackle performance.
Cine is among the 2022 NFL draft’s top prospects at the safety position. Cine hails from Cedar Hill, Texas, and came to Georgia as a four-star safety prospect. He immediately flashed his potential for the Bulldogs in the 2019 spring game.
Cine uses his speed to get to critical points on the field to disrupt a play or deliver a devastating hit. He has been compared to Philadelphia Eagles safety Anthony Harris ahead of the draft. Who is Anthony Harris and is he a good comparison for Lewis Cine?

Anthony Harris has spent seven seasons in the NFL. He went undrafted in 2015 after playing college football with Virginia.
Harris began his NFL career as a second-string player but worked his way to a starting role in 2019. Harris has 10 interceptions and 28 pass deflections in his NFL career.
Cine is a decent comparison to Harris. Both are playmakers. Harris and Cine both play in the 6-foot-1, 200-pound range and are solid tacklers. Cine will almost certainly be drafted and should develop quicker than Harris. Cine has the ability to play right away in the NFL. He is projected to be a third-round pick.
Cine plays with a willing aggressiveness that fit right in with Georgia’s talented stop unit. He plays with an urgent, downhill approach, which leads to memorable collisions but he’s not always under control in getting there. He doesn’t have desired mass and stopping power for his style of play, but the work gets done. Cine lacks range and instincts to play over the top and is better suited to split safety and down safety alignments. He can handle man coverage underneath but doesn’t have the hips to swing and sway with talented receivers down the field. Cine has future starting potential as a zero flinch safety, but has limitations for defenses to consider.
From our prospective, Cine’s game may be slightly underestimated due to some rough tape of him in the SEC championship when he was not fully healthy. Cine significantly improved in his junior season and made numerous critical plays on the ball. He finished the year with 10 pass deflections.
Anthony Harris is a respectable comparison for Cine, who would be happy if he has a NFL career akin to Harris.

The NFL’s new league year is less than a month away, and as the Eagles continue their sped-up retool, Howie Roseman will likely let some big named veterans walk via free agency.

Jalen #Hurts breaking #Eagles single-season records holder in passing yards was one of our #BOLD predictions for 2021, see how @TheEaglesWire did in a recap of the season
As the team starts looking towards the draft, we decided to look back at 10 bold predictions after the NFL’s first 17-game regular-season schedule was announced.
Not everything goes as planned and after Philadelphia’s postseason loss, we look back and take a pat on the back for the one prediction we got right.
Philadelphia rallied from a 10-0 deficit and entered the second-half down 16-7 after a lackluster first half that saw Washington quarterback Taylor Heinicke start the game 11-11 before his first incompletion.
After making some halftime adjustments, the Eagles were able to 13-0 in the second half as Boston Scott racked up two rushing touchdowns and Josh Sweat anchored a solid pass rush.
