If fifth-year options were still only guaranteed for injury, my bet would be that they would exercise Dillard’s fifth-year option. But as is, the risk of being stuck with a $12.6 million backup outweighs the reward of holding out for a slightly better return on a trade. Hence, the Eagles are unlikely to exercise Dillard’s fifth-year option if they can’t trade him by May 2. But I wouldn’t say it’s a zero percent chance.
