Demetress Bell, who now spells his name wrong, signed 5 year, 35 million dollar contract with the Eagles. It’s a front loaded deal with not a lot of guaranteed money so he probably won’t be in Philadelphia for much longer than a year. They need a new left tackle with Jason Peters hurt and Bell was the best available left on the open market. They did overpay slightly for a player who can’t seem to stay healthy, but they almost had to and there wasn’t a whole lot of guaranteed money. Bell is great when healthy, but because he rarely is, expected them to still target an offensive tackle on day 2 of the draft, preferably one who could also play inside long term.
