A low-risk depth reclamation of a former third-round pick with upside still unrealized. Multiple headlines highlight cornerback uncertainty in Philadelphia, signaling a real roster need driving this move. Thomas's former draft pedigree is the strongest positive signal here — he's not a pure camp body. Fans are cautiously optimistic, noting the Eagles are patching a thin secondary with familiar names. Thomas likely competes for a practice squad spot or emergency roster role in 2026.

This signing grades out as a significant overpay for the Philadelphia Eagles — the team is paying more than the on-field production currently warrants. Ambry's on-field performance ranks in the bottom quartile among NFL DBs, grading him as an unproven at the position. His $1.2M average annual value ranks as bargain money for the DB 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. Ambry is squarely in his prime, which adds to the deal's upside — the team should get multiple productive seasons out of this contract.
