Eagles News: Jeffrey Lurie has reportedly stepped back and given Howie Roseman free rein

Sources: Howie Roseman has taken almost total control of the Eagles’ decisions. He’s on a roll. - Inquirer
Sixteen months ago, I wrote this about Eagles general manager Howie Roseman:“... let King Howie rule. Give him a free and terrible hand. Diminish his ‘advisers.’ Give Howie the scouts’ information, let the coaches have their input, then sit back and let Roseman reign.” According to two NFL sources, that’s exactly what has happened. The early returns seem good. Often the least popular figure in Philadelphia sports, Roseman is riding a wave of support unlike any he has ever enjoyed, even as his staff undergoes a massive upheaval.
