And the hits just keep coming: According to Ian Rappopopoport, the Eagles have signed free agent safety Rodney McLeod to a five-year deal worth $37 million.
Pro Football Focus ranked McLeod as the 4th best free agent safety available and the 10th best safety in the NFL last year, saying:
“A three-year starter that has seen his grades versus the run and pass improve every single year. Finished 2015 as our 10th-highest-graded safety. McLeod is perfect for the role of deep safety, where he spent over 90 percent of his snaps a year ago.”
Howie is gotta be ten cups of coffee deep right now and showing no signs of stopping.
UPDATE: $17 million is reportedly guaranteed.
