NFC Notes: Commanders, Eagles, Giants

Commanders

  • Per Aaron Wilson, the Commandersโ€™ deal for undrafted OL Mason Brooks includes $185,000 guaranteed, $150,000 of the base salary guaranteed, plus a $35,000 signing bonus.

Eagles

  • New Eagles RB Dโ€™Andre Swift on joining his hometown team: โ€œIโ€™m excited to be back homeโ€ฆIโ€™m happy, Iโ€™m grateful for the opportunity to be part of a great organization. This is a team thatโ€™s connectedโ€ฆthese are guys that love each other. Iโ€™m excited to just be a piece of the puzzle.โ€ (Josh Tolentino)

Giants

  • The Athleticโ€™s Charlotte Carroll writes there should be intense competition for the Giants at wide receiver during training camp, as the team has Darius Slayton, Isaiah Hodgins, Parris Campbell, third-round rookie Jalin Hyatt, Wanโ€™Dale Robinson, Sterling Shepard, and Jamison Crowder leading a group of 14 players right now. 
  • Based on last season, Carroll thinks Slayton and Hodgins have a slight leg up. Robinson and Shepard are rehabbing major injuries and could be eased back in, along with Hyatt as a rookie facing a steep learning curve. They invested a solid amount in Campbell so Carroll thinks heโ€™s the early frontrunner for slot receiver.
  • The Giants anticipate TE Darren Waller being their true No. 1 target if heโ€™s healthy, per Carroll. 
  • The other major competition figures to be on the interior offensive line, with second-round C John Michael Schmitz the leader, but not a lock, to start at center. Carroll says heโ€™ll be pushed by Ben Bredeson who could also start at left guard depending on what Josh Ezeudu does in his second season. 
  • Giants GM Joe Schoen announced changes to the teamโ€™s personnel and scouting staff including naming Marcus Cooper a national scout, Blaise Bell an area scout, Marquis Pendleton a pro scout, and Justin Markus a scouting combine scout. (Charlotte Carroll)
