rodneykm Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 Offer a 2nd and a 5th...maybe another 5th next year for him. Draft your QB of the future and let Foles be your "bridge" guy. If he continues lighting it up...you're in excellent shape. If he comes back down to earth, you have your future QB waiting in the wings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hapless Bills Fan Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 13 hours ago, Paul Costa said: I would trade the #21 pick and Tyrod Taylor to the Eagles for Nick Foles. The Bills would first have to pay TT his 6 Million dollar bonus. The Eagles would get a first round pick as Foles becomes a FA next year, and they will get nothing. They will also get a quality backup in TT. Reports out of Philadelphia are that Wentz is way a head of schedule and will be ready for opening day. The Eagles are in bad shape cap wise and will have to create a little over 2 Million to pay TT instead of Foles. And Buffalo gets a quality QB on the cheap this year. With money next year to entend him. Win/win for both teams ??? Um, No. The benefit to the Eagles in moving Foles is to get draft picks and lower their cap. There is no benefit to them in taking on a player with a $10M contract instead, even if they do get a draft pick. They will go with the deal that offers them more picks. I'm unsure the Bills have the ingredients for Nick Foles success, namely the OL, the WR, and most importantly DeFilippo, Reich and Pederson. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3rdand12 Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 22 hours ago, BillsFan4 said: I'd be totally good with them giving up a 2nd for Foles and still drafting a rookie high in the draft. The only thing id worry about in that scenario is that it may make it harder to re-sign Foles (if he had a good season and the Bills wanted him back). There's always the franchise tag in that scenario though. But I wouldn't really want to give up a 2nd for Foles and have the Bills think they could punt on drafting a QB because of it. absolutely not a reason to punt. gives them a chance to get flexible in the draft maybe? Right now they puzzling every possible scenario to gain a QB. Nail that down for a season or two if you can trade Tyrod for something reasonable. Still gotta draft the guy you like and see as a fit for in Buffalo Bills. Thanks BF4 21 hours ago, YoloinOhio said: They don’t “know” that since the Bills have publically stated they won’t cut him. Could they? Sure, but no team knows that they will. they might. thats cool. But not until they have something better in House. because anything less would be foolish. Bring in Foles means he starts though. and he likely wont settle for a Bridge QB thang 19 hours ago, jr1 said: Bob's a grifter that preys upon confirmation bias rough trade i heard. don't bring him home to Momma type of grifter still fun to discuss 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's their insurance policy. He won't rot. It's a win-win for the Eagles. They'll look very stupid if they trade him for a 2nd, Wentz can't start the season or gets hurt from coming back too soon, and Sudfeld can't actually play in the NFL If they keep him, Sudfeld lights the place up in TC/preseason (which he did not, last year) and/or Wentz is good to go, there's a decent chance a contender will have a QB injury (see: Vikings) and be willing to give the Vikes as much or more.

Magox Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Man, giving up a 1st is steep, but then again if Foles can play at the level he can play then it becomes a steal. I would much rather prefer a 2nd, 5th 2019 and tyrod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may not feel comfortable rolling with Nate Sudfeld with Wentz’s knee situation. TT may not be as good as Foles but he’s not that much worse that they wouldn’t swap them for one year to get a 1st out of it. They were going to lose Foles next year anyway. TT as a backup to Wentz who they trust to start with a good team around him for a short period of time if needed fits what the Eagles need more than he fits what Bills need, which is a long-term starter.

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 A 2nd is as high as I would go, let the Eagles deal with the hold out because Foles will want to be paid based on his performance in the playoffs and super bowl. The Eagles already have cap issues, I don't think they have any other choice but to trade Foles. Stand fast with the 2nd rd pick, I think the Eagles have no choice but to trade him.

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted March 11, 2018 Share Posted March 11, 2018 I don’t know who this bob is. BUFFALO BILLS A report emerged on Monday that the Eagles were offered a second-round pick for Foles by an AFC team. Although that team isn't known, there are only a handful that make sense, and the Buffalo Bills might be at the top of that list. The Bills are in need of a quarterback after trading Tyrod Taylor to the Cleveland Browns, and their front office made it clear at the NFL Combine that they are going to be looking at all options when it comes to quarterback for the 2018 season. "We’re looking at every position," Buffalo Bills general manager Brandon Beane said, "including quarterback." Already a playoff team, the Bills could use a playoff-tested quarterback that knows how to win with a strong defense and strong running game. Foles fits that criteria. With five picks in the first three rounds, the Bills have plenty of draft capital to get a deal done. https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/nick-foles-trade-rumors-eagles-get-a-respectable-offer-afc-team-dangled-second-rounder/amp/ First from Peter King of TheMMQB.comcomes this nugget about having a "respectable" deal on the table: Then there's this from Geoff Mosher of FanRagSports, who says that an AFC team has offered, specifically, a second-round pick in exchange for Foles. An AFC team has already offered a second-round pick for Foles, according to a source with direct knowledge of the situation. The offer was proposed earlier this offseason, per the source. So maybe this bob is no more than another Dunkirk Son stealing someone else’s story. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
