Philly Front Office

Danny, AJ, and JoeyBets are back to discuss this year's NFL season including: NFC East: Is anyone else actually good? What's the best-case scenario for the Giants? Who is the 3rd best Commander? Do you feel bad for Jerry Jones? NFC: We are divided on the biggest contender to the throne AFC: Why do the Bills and Ravens get all the love despite never winning? Super Bowl Rematch? There is no second p...

Things were all good for the Phillies on Sunday, then they went to Citi Field.  After an abysmal 2 days in Flushing I am ready to be very mad at this team.  I am not giving up, we are still up in the division and firmly in hold of a playoff spot, but yuck.  It could not be much worse. Meanwhile, back in Eagles Training Camp, I am catching you up on trades, roster cuts, the practice squad, and the...

Yes, Zack Wheeler is probably done for the season and the Eagles CB2 situation is a mess, but that doesn't mean these aren't problems our teams cannot overcome. In this episode, I calmly and concisely (read panicked and rambling) go through the options for both teams and the rest of the news of the week including: Possible CB trades from around the league including Jamel Dean of the Tampa Bay Bucs...

Back from vacation where I was able to see Philly's own Kyle Garland win the Decathalon at the US Track and Field Championships.  His dad made it clear he is a big Eagles fan. This episode we recap the Phillies' trade deadline and talk about who could possibly pay Kyle Schwarber his next contract. Plus, Tanner McKee made everyone lose their minds after his performance against the Bengals.  What is...

MLB Trade Deadline is on July 31 at 6pm which means we have a lot to talk about. Recapping the moves so far, what our rivals have done, and what we can expect going forward. Links from the episode: Top Closers Top Outfielders Luis Robert isn't as bad as you think Phillies Bullpen Plan July 29, 2009: Cliff Lee Trade July 29, 2011: Hunter Pence Trade / Nnamdi Asomugha Signing Plus, recapping all the...

I'm embarrassed to admit it, but one of my best friends is a Mets fan.  I know, I know, that's a total betrayal of trust.  I promises myself I would only have him on as long as the Phillies were ahead in the standings though.  We go through how our teams are doing in the second half, what we need for the stretch run, our mist hated Mets and Phillies ever, and some of his better run-ins as a Met in...

All 4 of our teams have had draft concerns and questions this week: The Eagles and the rest of the NFL have a 2nd round draft pick problem that was created where most league wide contract problems are created, Cleveland. I go into how this affects the Eagles this season and next year. The Phillies drafted the strikeout throwing, no hitting College World Series phenom Gage Wood who should electrify...

Join me on a tour of our teams with an extra added stop at the end in hopes of preventing my podcast dismount awkwardness. Our first stop is the Sixers and their seemingly never-ending contract negotiations with Quentin Grimes.  Fear not listeners, he has no where else to go.  That stinks for him, but it's good for the Sixers.  It is just a matter of time. Next, gaze out upon your first place Phil...

The Flyers and Sixers are drafting and spending while the Phillies close in on the All-Star Break in first place.  Still no Eagles news, so we have to create some using the problems facing everyone else!  - Sixers draft VJ Edgecombe but lose Guerschon Yabusele.  Quentin Grimes still in the wind  - Flyers draft Porter Martone and wouldn't it be awesome if he flattened Cutter Gauthier one day?  - Ph...

We have not one but TWO drafts this week! Starting Wednesday, the first round of the NBA draft kicks off at 8pm.  The Sixers are picking 3rd and, just like the rest of the league, could be making some moves.  We have already seen 4 big trades in the last ten days and things are heating up.  Expect the Draft to have some fireworks including a possible Spurs trade out of #2 for Giannis.  It just mak...

What fan bases is it appropriate to give a sarcastic GO BIRDS to?  Obviously, the Giants, Cowboys, and Commanders.  Definitely the Chiefs.  Is that it?   I go into the Phillies Towel Game Anniversary, The Rafael Devers Trade, the Pre-All-Star Break schedule, and what the playoff pitching staff could look like. Then it's the Sixers and the 41st anniversary of the legendary 1984 draft, trade season,...

The younglings are the focus around Philly sports right now.   - The Phillies are imploding and their only options at the moment are pilfering their farm teams.  Justin Crawford and Andrew Painter need to join Otto Kemp and Mick Abel in the majors as soon as possible.   - The Eagles have 13 draft picks and $28m in cap space ready to use on different cap casualties across the league  - The Sixers a...

On May 31, 1983 the Sixers won the championship, sweeping the Lakers.  In the 42 years since then, they have been to the championship once, the world's population has nearly doubled and there are now 50 states!  Also in that time I was born, my sister was born, and our mother left her car in Florida and told us to drive it up.  So that's what we did during this podcast.

AJ and I run down the last week in Philly-ville while he gives his confidence level in all of our teams using the most relevant possible currency, eggplants.  5 eggplants and you got yourself a stew.

Armando and I have been friends a long time despite him being a Cowboys fan. We got past that through a lot of Simpsons jokes and 2 Eagles Super Bowl championships. He's also a Spurs fan. Come to think of it, me having the Eagles and Sixers is a hell of a lot like him having the Spurs and Cowboys. We both know one of our teams will do everything right while the other will do everything wrong. Set...

After not a lot of news coming out of our teams last week, the Phillies decided to drop some bombs this weekend.  Jose Alvarado is suspended for 80 games and the playoffs after having us all convinced that his 102mph fastball was back naturally.  To make up for it, the Phillies mercifully placed Aaron Nola on the IL and brought up their prized prospect...MICK ABEL!!!  We all thought it might be An...

Not a ton of Eagles news and I don't want to do any Phillies bitching about Rob Thomson and Aaron Nola, so I dive into the NBA Off Season.  It is percolating like crazy right now.  Teams are at a crossroads, players are going to be on the move, and the state of Texas is loaded with draft picks and talent.  Finally...I am decently optimistic about the Sixers.

The festivities kick off on Monday, May 12, at 7pm, but the 2025 NBA Draft Lottery has been in the works since July 6, 2019 when the Sixers decided to address the back up center position in the worst way possible, by signing Al Horford.  Getting this Celtics sleeper agent ruined the next season and forced us to trade his traitorous ass to Oklahoma City.  Not only did he make his way back to Boston...

I know that's not the quote AND it's a terrible joke. That's the kind of quality you can count on at this website. It might be bad, but I am aware of it.  - NHL Draft Lottery is tonight at 7pm. I go into a quick break down of the Flyers terrible lottery luck over the years and explain how the whole thing goes down tonight.  - Next up is the Sixers and the Rights to Ricky Sanchez Lottery Party wher...

On Episode 6 of the Philly Front Office Podcast, it's me talking about: The Eagles draft class including how draftees Jihaad Campbell and Andrew Mukuba lock down the starters and make us one of the youngest defenses you will ever see; The Flyers finally get a lottery date, May 5; The Sixers lottery date is May 12 and you might get to throw ping pong balls at me at the Rights to Ricky Sanchez Lotte...

With one day to go until showtime, Danny, Joe, and AJ are back on the Philly Front Office Podcast to discuss the NFL Draft.  The four of us discuss the top of the draft, Eagles dream scenarios, full confidence in Howie, and take some shots at the Giants: Top 3 Picks (1:12) The QBs (10:30) Eagles possibilities if we trade up to around 21 (17:30) Who are we looking at 32 or in a trade down (27:55) W...

Finally, real news!  It's been so long.  The Eagles extended Cam Jurgens for 4/$68m and that will have salary cap ramifications.  The detailed numbers aren't out yet, but I do some math anyway.  This is also an easy way to take some shots at the Cowboys and how they screw up contract negotiations (3:55).  What other extensions might be on the table for the Eagles (7:30)? Quick Draft talk (12:08)....

I have my friends on this episode to discuss the Eagles past few drafts. From 2021 to the present, Howie Roseman went from inconsistent to draft savant, changing his overall strategy from smaller schools to big time CFB programs like Alabama and Georgia. The strategy worked, with two Super Bowl appearances and one championship to show for it. Danny, Joe, AJ, and I discuss these drafts as well as p...

This Philly Front Office Podcast will not be about the 2021-24 Eagles Drafts like planned.  The tiny tonsils of a little boy got in the way.  Feel better Joey! Fixing the Brandon Marsh and Alec Bohm situations...Justin Crawford? (00:40) Extending Kyle Schwarber and JT Realmuto (6:48) The Sixers are running it back with or without Joel Embiid (16:38) Flyers quick hit (26:05) Eagles sign Terrance Ma...

Bad Timing with the Phillies Taking out my frustration on Alec Bohm not Johan Rojas and Edmundo Sosa (3:56) Get excited for Andrew Painter, just like Cole Hamels (9:00) Bad Timing with the Eagles (12:35) Sixers understood the assignment (13:42) Flyers did not (19:33)
