Jeremy Maclin makes a catch during an OTA.
The Philadelphia Eagles have just agreed to terms with first round pick Jeremy Maclin.
The deal is believed to be a six-year deal worth $23 million. This all is according to the Twitter page of a blog that covers Mizzou athletics called "The Columns."
No one else is reporting the deal so it may or may not be true as a blog covering where the wide receiver used to play his college ball may not be the best source.
However if the deal has gone down it would mean good things for the Eagles who would then only have LeSean McCoy to worry about as far as signing on rookies are concerned.
This also eliminates any possibilty of a holdout from Maclin as we have seen with first round picks in the past.
Stay tuned. If any other source talks about this an update will be made.
UPDATE: The same blog is now reporting that no deal has been agreed to, but the deal should be in the ballpark of the 6-year $23 million area.
