Eagles burning it down for a rebuild.

Here's the explanation per Grok. I wasn't aware of this rule.

"If a team trades for a player who was signed as a CFA by any club during that league year, the acquiring team is treated as having “gained” that CFA.

That player is then included in the compensatory netting formula for the acquiring team, just as if they had signed him in free agency."
