| Panthers | Fletcher Cox deal may affect Kawann Short |
Wed, 15 Jun 2016 12:08:43 -0700
Carolina Panthers DT Kawann Short's possible long-term extension will probably be more complicated considering Philadelphia Eagles DT Fletcher Cox's recent deal, according to Panthers head coach Ron Rivera. Cox's deal averages $17.2 million per year and includes $63 million guaranteed. Those figures could make Short's deal nearly impossible, as general manager Dave Gettleman has proven he doesn't overpay for what he believes a player's value to be.

| Eagles | Darren Sproles to arrive next week |
Fri, 03 Jun 2016 07:14:38 -0700
Philadelphia Eagles RB Darren Sproles and DT Fletcher Cox are expected to be present at next week's mandatory camp, according to head coach Doug Pederson.
Fantasy Tip: Sproles should have a significant role in the offense behind Ryan Mathews with DeMarco Murray no longer in the picture in 2016. However, he'll have to learn a completely new offense, and he's no spring chicken these days at 32 years old. He has more worth in PPR leagues as more of a flex-type player.

The Philadelphia Eagles offered the Tennessee Titans two first-round picks, one third-round pick, DT Fletcher Cox, CB Brandon Boykin, LB Mychal Kendricks and QB Sam Bradford in exchange for the 2nd overall pick in the 2015 NFL Draft, according to a source.
Fantasy Tip: After turning down a very generous offer, it is no surprise to learn that Tennessee plans on start Mariota in 2015. Consider him a low-end QB2 to open the year.

| Eagles | Philly pursuing Marcus Mariota? |
Fri, 24 Apr 2015 14:54:06 -0700
Oregon QB Marcus Mariota could be selected by the Philadelphia Eagles if the team could make trades with the Cleveland Browns and Tennessee Titans, according to one draft rumor. The rumor states the Eagles would trade QB Sam Bradford to the Browns for the 19th overall pick, then the Eagles would trade DT Fletcher Cox, LB Mychal Kendricks, the 19th overall pick and the 20th overall pick to the Titans for the second overall pick where they would select Mariota.
Fantasy Tip: There have been rumors that the Eagles will try to trade up in the first round for Mariota, but the team will need to move up significantly to have a chance at him. Mariota likely would have a good chance to win the starting job if he joins the Eagles, but would not be more than a No. 2 fantasy quarterback at this point.

| Eagles | Vinny Curry, Fletcher Cox molding to new roles |
Mon, 03 Jun 2013 13:06:03 -0700
Philadelphia Eagles DEs Vinny Curry and Fletcher Cox are transitioning to new roles in defensive coordinator Billy Davis' hybrid 3-4 alignment this offseason. Curry is now up to 280 pounds after being just over 260 pounds last year. He gained weight organically during the offseason and not at the staff's request. Curry has spent most of the time during offseason workouts as a defensive end, and he has some two-gap responsibilities. Cox is also making the transition to a 3-4 end, although he has some experience with it. "I did the same thing in college, moving around a whole lot. Defensive end, defensive tackle. It didn't matter where I was," said Cox, who finished with 5.5 sacks last season as a 4-3 tackle. "Certain packages, certain situations, they want me outside or they want me inside. I've got to get the job done."

Philadelphia Eagles DE Trent Cole will be on the roster next season, and he's guaranteed $5.1 million in 2013. DL Vinny Curry will be back also, but DLs Darryl Tapp, Cullen Jenkins, Mike Patterson and Derek Landri aren't locks to play for Philly next season. As a result, the development of first-rounders DLs Brandon Graham and Fletcher Cox is vital. Graham has four sacks and seven hurries in three games since the team released DE Jason Babin. Cox has 4 1/2 sacks in his last six games after becoming a starter Oct. 28.
