Eagles miss out on the top remaining free agent deep threats

Well, the Philadelphia Eagles won’t be adding one of the top deep threat wide receivers available in free agency. Both of those players came off the market on Tuesday.

First, Robby Anderson signed a two-year, $20 million contract with the Carolina Panthers.

Then the New York Jets signed Breshad Perriman to a one-year, $8 million deal ($6 million guaranteed) to be Anderson’s replacement.

It’s pretty disappointing that Howie Roseman didn’t sign one of these guys. Both players were logical fits in Philly. There was an especially strong case to be made for acquiring Perriman.
