The GM decided that their sketchy histories are worth the risk … for now.
Howie Season got off to a rousing start. In the first three days of free-agent courtship, Howie Roseman extended the contract of his best young offensive lineman. He signed the most exciting young pass rusher on the market. He broke from his pattern and committed big money to a big back. Then he corrected his biggest mistake of 2023.
Sure enough, once Dickerson had recovered from the ACL tear that ended his final college season, he became a stud guard for the Eagles. He has started 51 games, including five playoff games. He’s made the last two Pro Bowls. The first three years have gone well.Roseman figures the next five will be even better. With a year left on his rookie deal, Dickerson signed a four-year extension that can be worth up to $87 million, a record for guards.
Roseman, however, felt comfortable signing Barkley, 27, to a three-year, $37.75 million contract, with $26 million guaranteed. It’s the biggest contract for a free-agent running back since the Jets wasted $27 million in guaranteed money on Le’Veon Bell in 2019, when Bell was 27 — a contract that has served as a cautionary tale for such backs ever since. Bell signed for four years. He was gone in a little more than one season.
