He was one of the owners favorites, but got completely exiled by Chip Kelly. Comes back and rebuilds a roster that Kelly ruined, takes them to the SB. Goes all in with a ton of realllllyyy bad moves, misses on almost every draft pick for the next 3 years, team falters, Carson Wentz debacle, everyone wants him fired. Has a couple amazing drafts, rebuilds team, everyone loves him again
Still can't believe some of the the moves this guy has made....getting a 1st and 3rd for Wentz, swindling the Saints to get their #1 this year, the surprise AJ Brown move on draft night

I used to pile on Howie quite a bit mostly because of the draft fails, it was easy to do so... and even as recent as a year or 2 ago because really, the Eagles were without a lot of young talent on both sides of the ball. Even the Sirianni hire looked more than a little questionable.
But after this offseason it's hard to really find an issue with what he's done. The FA acquisitions he's made and the trade with the Saints, totally changed the team. He did an amazing job and I have to give the guy credit.
