Current Contract

Contract Value Index (CVI)

The Eagles struck gold in free agency, landing Joe Tryon-Shoyinka on what amounts to a steal of a deal that earns an A- CVI. At just $800K per year with $3.5M guaranteed, Philadelphia is getting a proven depth piece at defensive end for replacement-level money — the type of contract that championship teams are built on. Tryon-Shoyinka may not be a household name, but he's exactly the kind of rotational pass rusher who can provide quality snaps without breaking the bank, especially valuable given the Eagles' aggressive spending elsewhere. The minimal guaranteed money means virtually zero risk if he doesn't pan out, while the low AAV preserves precious cap space for core players. This is textbook roster construction: finding legitimate NFL contributors at bargain prices to fill out your depth chart. General manager Howie Roseman continues to demonstrate why he's among the league's shrewdest operators, turning over every stone to find value in a market where pass rushers typically command premium dollars.

Performance Analysis

Joe Tryon-Shoyinka carries an F grade after a disappointing tenure that saw him move from Tampa Bay to Philadelphia. The former first-round pick was supposed to be a cornerstone pass rusher for the Buccaneers, but he never consistently won at the point of attack. His production as a defensive end has been well below what you'd expect from a player selected in the top 32, and the Eagles are essentially taking a low-risk flier on reclamation potential. The physical tools that made him a first-rounder are still there, but translating traits into sacks and pressures has been the persistent problem. Philadelphia's defensive coaching staff may unlock something Tampa couldn't, but expectations should be tempered significantly.

Fan Sentiment

A low-risk, high-upside depth add that gives Philadelphia cheap edge-rush insurance. Five headlines confirm broad media coverage, framing this as a calculated reclamation project. The strongest signal is his first-round pedigree — Tampa's 2021 pick still has untapped potential. Fans are cautiously optimistic, hopeful a change of scenery unlocks his pass-rushing tools. If he contributes even eight snaps per game, the Eagles win this deal easily.
