The Philadelphia Eagles will come to regret their biggest move in free agency, according to one analyst.
The Eagles made a major splash by signing former New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley to a three-year, $37.75 million deal. Barkley was arguably the top back available on the market and he’s easily a more prolific player than Philadelphia’s previous two starting running backs, D’Andre Swift and Miles Sanders.
However, Kristopher Knox of Bleacher Report argued that the Eagles could have gone with a more “budget-friendly” running back and still received good production.
