Twitter Reacts To Alshon Jeffrey Extension

Did Ryan Pace make a huge mistake by letting Alshon Jeffrey walk and not offering him an extension? Apparently the Philadelphia Eagles thought so and decided to capitalize on it-- as it's been reported the Eagles just signed Jeffrey to a four-year extension. And people are pumped...

Playing Devil's advocate, Pace may have really screwed the pooch on this one. Sure, it's no secret Jeffrey didn't want to stay in Chicago, but Pace and the Bears organization could have maybe done something to make it more enticing, especially if they planned on drafting their quarterback of the future. It's a toss up between "Enjoy the hamstring pulls Philly!" ...And "Damn Mitch could really use a living breathing body to throw to." So far this year Jeffrey has 43 REC, for 619 YDS, and 7 TDs. Although, in all reality, there really may have been nothing Pace could have done to keep the oft injured wide receiver here. Perhaps he really did just want out. Last week Alshon expressed his desire to stay in Philadelphia for the long haul and the Eagles quickly answered the call. The four-year contract is worth a reported $52 million, $27 guaranteed, and could reach $56 million with incentives.
