Eagles have needs to fill in free agency, but not much cap money

HOWIE ROSEMAN laughed last week, when asked how comfortable he is with the salary-cap room the Eagles have available to spend in free agency.

It was not a long, loose, "We're in the money"-type laugh. It was more of a short, tight, "Do you know what that bleeping Chip Kelly did to my lovely salary cap?"-type laugh.

"Have any of you guys seen what the rest of the league has?" Roseman asked his questioners.

According to Spotrac.com, the Eagles enter Monday's "legal tampering" period, two days before the 4 p.m. Wednesday official start of free agency, with $17, 460, 770 in cap room.
