Philadelphia, PA – April 22, 2025
The calm before the NFL Draft storm isn’t so calm in Philly.
With less than a week until the first pick is in, the Eagles front office is working overtime behind the scenes. And while all eyes are on Howie Roseman’s usual draft-day fireworks, another storyline is simmering just below the surface:
Is pass rusher Bryce Huff—Philly’s $51.1 million investment—already on the chopping block?
💰 Big Contract, Big Questions
Just last year, the Eagles inked Bryce Huff to a 3-year, $51.1M deal after his breakout 10-sack campaign with the Jets. He was brought in to boost the rotation, terrorize quarterbacks, and become a long-term fixture on Philly’s front line.
But things haven’t gone according to plan.
-
Huff saw limited snaps in 2024 due to the Eagles’ deep D-line rotation
-
Despite the cap hit, he never fully found his rhythm
-
Now, insiders say the team is “open” to trade talks involving him
And with Dallas Goedert already swirling in rumors, Huff’s name being added to the mix means no one is safe.
🧩 Depth or Dead Weight?
With Josh Sweat and Milton Williams gone, pass rush depth is no longer a luxury — it’s a necessity.
That’s why the decision is complicated:
🟢 Keep Huff, hope he rebounds in training camp, and give him one more shot
🔴 Move on, clear cap space, and reload via the Draft or June signings
At just 27 years old, Huff still has upside.
But a $51 million man riding the bench? That’s a tough pill to swallow.
🔥 FanHub Final Take
This isn’t just about Huff — it’s about value vs. production.
“If he’s not playing, he shouldn’t be paid like a top-tier EDGE,” one NFC scout told FanHub.
“But if he clicks in training camp, this deal could still age well.”
All eyes on Philly. The draft may bring a fresh face to the pass rush… or make Bryce Huff the odd man out.
