He's obviously going to want to know what they have planned for the immediate future (3-4 years) at the very least.

What would a presentation from Philly look like?
"Yeah we're unsure if we're rebuilding or trying to compete now. We're trying to trade JVR, Provorov and potentially Ellis. We have to do that to fit you in under the cap. So you might have to take less tha market value to sign with us. And yeah we still have to make up a 40 point deficit to be in the playoff conversation. Yeah we had Gostisbehere a year ago but we gave up a pick to get rid of him, but don't worry - we traded for racist Gostisbehere yesterday. Our franchise player and captain was traded at the deadline because he wouldn't resign, because we're awful and will continue to be so going forward.
So you in?"
