The Eagles have placed LG Evan Mathis on the trade block.

The story has been reported by both NFL Network and the Philly Inquirer. Both outlets report Mathis wants a raise on his scheduled $5 million salary. Mathis was a first-team All-Pro selection in 2013 and has been one of the best guards in football the past three seasons. Mathis saw LT Jason Peters and C Jason Kelce get extensions earlier this offseason, and apparently felt snubbed when his contract wasn't addressed. Mathis is entering his age-33 season.

Bill Lazor connection, lets give Philly a 6th round pick if they don't want him.
 
I know things might have gone bad in the past but we have a new GM and his last OC is now our OC.
 
2nd rounder id do it...and id extend him also...mathis is best guard in the game right now

absofreaking lutely

and i dont give a rats ass what pff rates him...
 
A 2nd rounder for a guard...and big money. No thanks.

If I have to take on the salary, the pick is much, much lower.
 
i dont think that 33 is right...if it is that would change somethings
 
They cant afford to keep him. Give them a 6th round pick and pick up his salary.

He signed a contract two years ago. What power does he have to force them to give him a raise?
 
he's the best guard in the game but that wanting an extension would be the problem for me...just too dicey at that age
