Avonte Maddox will search for more playing time elsewhere

Avonte Maddox set a new career-high in games played (17), and yet, played the sixth-most defensive snaps (345) in his seven-year NFL career. He played in just 33 percent of the team's defensive snaps in games he was active during the regular season, a career-low by a wide margin. He was replaced in the lineup by Cooper DeJean, an impressive rookie who will only get better as he gains experience.

Maddox could prioritize re-signing with the Eagles as he's spent his entire career in Philadelphia, but would that really be in his best interest? DeJean and Quinyon Mitchell, two rookies, aren't going anywhere anytime soon.

Maddox could stick around on special teams and as a backup who will only see a handful of snaps per game, but he might have an opportunity to play a larger role elsewhere. Chances are, if that's out there, he'll take it.

Since we are obviously focusing on Defense this year, if the price is right, bring him in
