Jake Majors

Current Contract

Contract Value Index (CVI)

This signing grades out as an overpay for the Philadelphia Eagles — the team is paying more than the on-field production currently warrants. Jake's on-field performance ranks in the bottom quartile among NFL Cs, grading him as an unproven at the position. His $968K average annual value ranks as bargain money for the C market. The concern here is the gap between production and cost — unproven output at bargain money means the team is paying a premium above the player's on-field value. Jake is squarely in his prime, which adds to the deal's upside — the team should get multiple productive seasons out of this contract.

Performance Analysis

Jake Majors is firmly replacement-level at center right now, and with a D+ performance grade after just two games, there is not much evidence to argue otherwise. The data here is genuinely sparse — two games into what amounts to a reserve/future contract situation does not provide a statistical foundation to identify meaningful strengths, and that absence itself tells part of the story. What is clear is the weakness: Majors has no proven NFL starting experience, and the volume of work he has seen is nowhere near enough to establish himself as a reliable interior presence. His current role is depth-only, the kind of low-stakes roster spot that exists to fill out a camp roster rather than address a genuine positional need. The media framing around Majors is consistent with that reality — this is a developmental backup center generating minimal buzz, with his most realistic ceiling being a practice squad designation unless injuries create an unexpected opening. At 24 years old in his rookie season, there is theoretical developmental runway, but the trajectory on his Contract Value Index (CVI) trending downward over the last 30 days reflects the limited traction he has gained. For a Philadelphia Eagles team currently holding a #3 NFC seed with 133 days until the regular season opens, Majors is a roster body, not a solution.

Fan Sentiment

A low-risk camp body signing that adds interior offensive line depth without moving the needle. Limited headlines suggest minimal media buzz around this roster move. Majors profiles as a developmental backup center with no proven NFL starting experience. Fans see this as a typical roster-filling move with little long-term impact. Majors likely competes for a practice squad spot unless injuries force his hand.
