How high should Eagles be willing to bid to keep Zach Baun?
The free agent bidding could get to a level we've never seen the Eagles go for a linebacker, but Zach Baun might just be worth it.
How uncomfortable are the Eagles willing to be to keep Zach Baun?
With a week to go until the legal tampering period and eight days the start of the new league year, I keep wondering that. Baun, an All-Pro in his first year in an Eagles uniform, was a huge part of the best defense in the NFL. But we’re talking about a position the Eagles rarely pay big money for and almost never draft with a premium pick. If Baun were to come back at a mid-tier rate, the Eagles would likely love to have him.
But what about if the bidding goes to never-before-seen territory?
Here’s the latest projection on Baun’s possible market and what I think it means for his Eagles future.
