Eagles Stay or Go 2024: Jason Kelce highlights the interior offensive line originally appeared on NBC Sports Philadelphia
Reuben Frank and Dave Zangaro bring back Stay or Go in 2024, trying to figure out the futures of every Eagles player on the roster.
We already looked at quarterback, running back, receiver and tight end.
Up today: Interior offensive line
Landon Dickerson
Roob: Dickerson is going into a contract year, and with Pro Bowls in each of the last two seasons his next contract is shaping up to be an expensive one. Probably in the $15 million per year range. But like the DeVonta Smith deal, it has to get done, and it will get done. Hasson Reddick is one thing. But Howie Roseman doesn’t let elite players who are 25 years old leave. Dickerson will probably never live up to his own impossible expectations, but he’s become one of the NFL’s top young guards. He’s the first Eagles offensive lineman to make two Pro Bowls in his first three years since Hall of Famer Bob Brown in 1965 and 1966. Pretty good company. He’s not going anywhere for a long time.
Verdict: Stays
Dave: If you don’t spend much time thinking about an offensive guard, they’re probably playing pretty well. That’s the case with Dickerson, who is quietly entering his fourth NFL season with two Pro Bowls already under his belt. Dickerson is exceptionally critical of his own play but even he had to admit he improved in 2023. When the Eagles used the No. 37 overall pick on Dickerson, I was admittedly concerned based on his laundry list of injuries in college. But he’s been able to fight through some minor nicks and bruises in the NFL and has played in 33 of 34 games over the last two seasons. Dickerson, 25, is also now eligible for a contract extension and the Eagles should work to get that done. He seems like the type of guy you can count on for a decade on the interior of the line.
Verdict: Stays
Cam Jurgens
Roob: You would have liked to have seen a little more consistency from Jurgens…
