Saquon Barkley has officially joined the Philadelphia Eagles, marking a significant move in NFL free agency. The Eagles, along with the Ravens, Bears, and Chargers, were initially reported as the "Top 3" serious suitors for the former New York Giants running back. Despite interest from the rival Philadelphia Eagles and Dallas Cowboys, it was uncertain if they would meet Barkley's price point. However, as legal tampering began, the Eagles were expected to be in extremely hot pursuit, with rumors suggesting they were willing to offer more than $12 million annually, surpassing the Texans' offer believed to be around $11 million. This move, agreed to terms, ends Barkley's six-year tenure with the Giants and brings him back to Pennsylvania, where he played collegiately at Penn State. Barkley is expected to get the top deal on a saturated RB market in a two-man race. In his first career game vs. Philly, Barkley had 22 total touches, 229 total yards, and 1 TD.

I like the Saquon Barkley signing, mostly because it probably means he is a much bigger upgrade at RB than the Eagles could have gotten for the money at any other (more valued) position of need. Which could be a whole different issue.

Saquon Barkley to the Eagles. Howie Roseman approaches RB than he has during the past decade, paying top-of-the-market money for a top-of-the-market player. Not how the Eagles have treated the position, but can bolsters the offense in a big way.
