The Philadelphia Eagles are 1-1 but the vibes aren't high right now in the city of Brotherly Love. On Monday Night Football against the Atlanta Falcons, the Eagles lost 22-21 in dramatic fashion.

One player who has struggled immensely to start the season is EDGE Bryce Huff. He came over as a free agent, inking a three-year, $51.1 million deal. But despite receiving this monster payday, he hasn't been able to make an impact on the field.

Through two weeks, he's only recorded an assisted tackle. He has zero sacks, QB hits, pressures, or tackles for loss.

The fanbase isn't pleased with his performance so we think it'll be a fun exercise to look at three free agents that Philly could have brought in over Huff.

1. Mike Danna, DE

Defensive end Mike Danna is currently on the Kansas City Chiefs. He was originally selected in the fifth round of the 2020 NFL Draft by the Chiefs and has developed into a quality player.

Although he isn't the most explosive guy, Danna has a relentless motor and plays hard on every snap. The Michigan product has terrific play recognition skills and is able to sniff out the ball carrier.

He also finds a way to get into the backfield and cause havoc. Last season with the Chiefs, Danna recorded career-highs in pressures (41), hurries (28), and sacks (6.5). In the offseason, he re-signed with the Chiefs on a three-year, $24 million.

He's someone who would have fit in Philly even though he isn't the flashiest or most athletic playmaker.
