15 leftover Eagles notes from 2024 owners meetings originally appeared on NBC Sports Philadelphia
It was a busy few days in Orlando for the NFL’s annual league meetings this week.
Over the course of a couple days from the lavish Ritz-Carlton, we heard from Eagles owner Jeff Lurie, general manager Howie Roseman and head coach Nick Sirianni. It’s the only time of the year where these guys all speak over the course of two days.
We had plenty of coverage this week, including Roseman’s explanation for signing Saquon Barkley, Sirianni’s plan to maximize Barkley, Sirianni’s non-committal at center, Lurie’s explanation for retaining Sirianni after the 2023 collapse and more.

When asked about the cornerback position in general, Roseman mentioned that it was still March 25, meaning there’s a lot of time to add. The Eagles in both of their Super Bowl seasons under Roseman’s watch added a cornerback late in the process. In 2017, they traded for Ronald Darby in August. In 2022, they signed Bradberry in May.
So even if it’s true that Bradberry is in the Eagles’ plans right now, those plans could certainly change. But after saying that Bradberry was driven to return to his 2022 form, Roseman was asked why he thought the 30-year-old could have a bounce-back season after a terrible 2023.
“He has had some adversity in his career,…
