Snead is damn good

[oldramfan]

Snead/Fisher pull off another one. Picking up another #2 and losing $12 million off the cap is genius. I was a big Bradford guy for the first couple of years but soured on him last year and felt he would never take us anywhere, just my opinion. I think Foles is a guy that, if protected, will give us far more than Bradford could. I am very hopeful now as I think we can compete with Seattle and Arizona as long as we fix the offensive line. BTW I love watching the 40-whiners implode.

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

Let us now pray that the Eagles doctor doesn't fail him in the team physical.

@12intheBox , I'll believe it when they trade him straight up for a first rounder. No sweeteners involved.

 

[WestCoastRam]

Yeah... 1st round after the 3rd.

 

[Sleepy1711]

The new crew is sooooooooOOOoOOOOooo much better than Spags and what's his face.. errr..Devaney (had to look that up).

They sure keep things interesting unlike the olden days (as in a few years past).

My buddy is a Denver fan and said the Broncos were the team that offered it. Said Elway would love to have Bradford sit behind Peyton for a year and make sure he's 100% healthy. But hes probably talking out of his ass.

I wouldn't doubt it, but thats a LOT of money to have sitting on the bench as a backup.

If Sam can come back healthy I'd love him to come to Denver

Next year he'll have to be on a new contract and they aren't going to pay Peyton $15M next year (his last of his contract) to stay at 39 years old.(maybe 40 I'm not sure)

I don't see paying that much for an injured backup either. Especially with the starter making big money.

I don't believe it. But Foles plus the Eagles second next year is probably equal to a late first this year.

Chip Kelly said he was offered a #1 during his press conference this morning.

What I am saying is I don't believe it. I think he is saying that to appease the media and the fans. Perception is everything.

However, lets say that is true. The same team probably offered the Rams the same deal then. They didn't have a good enough QB to throw into the deal and if the Rams don't like the draft options they decided to go with the Eagles offer instead because they like Foles over the other QBs in the draft not named Mariota or Winston.

I concur. Philly fans are known to be violent when they don't agree...he has to say something to save face.

I have a two part question on this:
1) Can we trade the 2016 2nd rounder we got this year!? and
2) Do we rate a compensatory pick in the 2016 draft because of Bradford!

 

[RambleOn]

I agree. Snead and Fisher have improved the overall talent to a level we haven't seen since the GSOT era. Now let's get some wins!

 

[Noregar]

NFL = Not For Long

Next offseason the Rams sign Bradford (who becomes a pro bowl alternate) as an Unrestricted FA after the Eagles fail to lock him up to along term deal then he subsequently tears his ACL for the third time. Meanwhile the Eagles sign Foles who makes the pro bowl to a long term deal after the Rams fail to lock him up with long term deal.

 

[RAMBUSH]

So what do I do with my bradford jersey.... Shove it in the corner next to my bettis jersey I guess..

1- Yes
2- No, comp picks are only allocated for lost free agents.

I hear ya. No idea if it's true or not. I wouldn't imagine anyone would give up a #1 unless he was healthy. And in that case he would still be with us

If that's true then he is dumber than I think he is.
