Bradford won't end up in Philly

[Faceplant]

I just can't believe they ate that salary. It is essentially a lateral, but gives us a TON more cap room for FAs. Also, I would be fine with Foles with one year to prove what he is. I would guess he is somewhere between what we saw in 13 and 14. that would be more than fine with me if he can stay healthy.

 

[LesBaker]

Yes he is.

No, he isn't.

 

[-X-]

No, he isn't.

Is too.

 

[HometownBoy]

Is too.

Ladies, please. You're both beautiful.

 

[DaveFan'51]

we just got fucked...seriously...our 10 for their 20...what?

And we apparently gave up our 2nd rounder too!!!

 

[LesBaker]

Is too.

Is not......neenerneenerneener

Except isn't.

Why do you feel they (Philly) will now go after Mariotta? I would say, we now would be a better choice to pursue him (IMO). And all we have to see happen is he get past NYJets. Or we get in front of them........

If there's one thing Chip Kelly covets, it's accuracy from his QB.
I don't see why this wouldn't be the ideal situation for Bradford, and something we all feel angst over for years.

I doubt it given Bradford is 58.6% Vs Foles 59.8% accuracies

 

[ram007]

Oh i completely agree. Philly has used the Rams as a stepping stone. Pretty obvious. I just want to know what the Rams are hoping to achieve. If this was a trade made solely to acquire Foles, dump Bradford and his cap hit...It was too expensive and foolish based on early reports of the trade details.

I am hoping Bradford is Rivers and Foles is Brees 8 years down the lane.

I am hoping Bradford is Rivers and Foles is Brees 8 years down the lane.

Bradford is Alex Smith.

 

[Mojo Ram]

Would you trade Nick Foles, our #10 pick to the Jets for the #6 pick(Mariota) ?

 

[Rabid Ram]

See this thread is a good example of why waiting to get the actual details of a move is paramount. We didn't give our #10 we didn't give our second.

Rams got
Foles
4th rd
And 2nd next year

Eagles got
Bradford
5th rd

Could be, but remember, Bradford's former OC is in Philly now.

Ugh, the dink & dunk king.

 

[Mackeyser]

Yeah, but that will work for them now that they've gotten rid of most of their downfield threats...

 

[Thordaddy]

Is too, infinity.

But some infinities are larger than others

As far a s the Eagles using Sam trading up to get Marriota ,IMO it's more likely the Rams do that because ALL the conditionals are on Philly i.e. starting, injury, would IMO require them to give him the chance to do those things or eat them if they trade him

 

[DR RAM]

Ugh, the dink & dunk king.

Mixed with Chip's system. McCoy sure seemed happy to be out of there.

So you're telling me that Chip Kelly does no recon on his QBs, and he just looks at stats to determine if a QB is accurate? I'm not going to trot out the science behind adjusted accuracy as it relates to drops, throw-aways, tips, receivers being shielded and jammed, call-back penalties, and the other things that take away from accuracy totals, because it's not worth the effort. Let's just say that I stand by my statement and very rarely use stats to summarize a player.

@EaglesInsider: Kelly said #Eagles were offered a first-round pick this morning for Bradford
