Ok. So we upgrade THIS YEAR from a 5th to 4th basically. That's fine, we haven't gotten any good 5th round guy I think.
Plus cap relief, and a 2nd next year if Sam is healthy and starting?
That's actually kind of awesome if that works out.
But then.....this muddafuckin' deal still confuses the crap out of me.
All I want to know NOW, if what the Rams draft picks look like THIS year NOW.
I'm still trying to figure out what happens if the Eagles trade Bradford
Rams don't give up the 4th because it's in 2015, before the season. Eagles website doesn't mention any conditions placed on the trade.
No mention of swapping firsts... WOW if true. Great trade if so.
Breer just announced (sorry if this is redundant) that the Rams trade Bradford plus a conditional 2016 pick to the Eagles for Foles, a 2015 4th rounder and a 2016 2nd rounder.
If Bradford doesn't start 8 games, it's a 4th.
If Bradford gets reinjured, it's a 3rd.
So we DO get picks. He left out swapping firsts, so I dunno about that...
I think that fast paced offense will be perfect for Bradford. Sucks for him that all their good players are gone.
Let's hope Foles can repeat 2013.
We're NOT swapping firsts right? Because I've heard some news outlets still mentioning the 1st round pick
Phi gave us Foles, a fourth round pick 2015 and a second round pick 2016 for Bradford and our fifth round pick 2015.They are speaking about some conditional picks in 2016 but it's not possibile to know in this moment.With our 10th pick we can do yet a lot of good moves ...
Seems like an odd way to place a condition. I could see if the Eagles kept him and he didn't pan out but the Eagles being allowed to just trade him with no compensation due in lieu of the '16 2nd rounder? Doesn't smell right.@AroundTheNFL: Basically: If the Eagles trade Bradford before the draft, they’d get that 2016 2nd round pick right back.
I agree. Let's hope he is healthy and ready to go.I'd love if he did but we don't even need that much. If Foles can give us 16 starts in the regular season with 26 TDs 14 Ints and a QB Rating somewhere in the high 80s or low 90s...we can win 10+ games.
Thomas said the Rams told him no.
I just heard this on NFL insider as well.
We get Foles plus some draft pick compensation yet to be announced
@AdamSchefter: Eagles will surrender 2016 2nd-round pick to Rams in QB trade no matter what. But will get back a conditional... http://t.co/xdhr2CLpWD
I also heard that if Bradford is the starter, the Rams get their 2nd next year.
Bleh.
I'll wait until this is a done deal. This is getting silly now.
Schefter:
Eagles will surrender 2016 2nd-round pick to Rams in QB trade no matter what. But will get back a conditional 2016 pick from Rams. It will be a 3rd if Bradford does not play at all; and a 4th if he starts less than 50 percent of plays.
I assume it means more than 50% of the games.What does "is a starter" mean? If he starts one game then we get a second?
