947 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Seems like everybody else has signed a QB, and almost all the bridge QBs are now taken. Are we the last team that could want Foles? Pretty sure the Eagles have to get his contract off their books. If we're the only bidder, I could see a 3rd getting it done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SectionC3 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 May be the case. The Tyrod third might be more attractive to philly today than it was yesterday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dollars 2 donuts Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 how can we want Foles when all indications are we are trying to draft a top tier QB? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndirish1978 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 (edited) IN Yes a third could get it done, especially since they already turned down a 2. This usually works, just keep offering worse compensation. They'll probably give him to us for a 7th if we keep it up.

CuddyDark Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 (edited) Word is they already rejected a 2nd so a 3rd is not likely. Edited March 13, 2018 by CuddyDark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsFan4 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I'd be very happy with Foles for a 3rd. Eagles may just hold onto him until they see if Wentz is ready to go. Or they may just wait and see if a team has an injury at the QB position and gives up the 1st + that they want for him... And I have zero interest in Foles for a 1st. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
947 Posted March 13, 2018 Author Share Posted March 13, 2018 Eagles rejected a 2nd when there were 5+ teams that needed a vet QB. My point is that is just became a buyers' market in the past 2 hours. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

transplantbillsfan Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Who cares? If the option is to trade into the top 5 for one of the top 3 QBs in this draft OR trade for Foles, why would anyone choose the latter???? As long as McDermott and Beane don't think Allen is worthy of a top 5 pick, ignore Foles, get a QB like Savage/Moor/Anderson and draft Mayfield/Darnold/Rosen and just let him roll under center from the start of the season.

HiddenInLight Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 The fact that Foles is still on the Eagles Roster probably indicates that they are unsure about Wentz's condition moving into next season. I think he is more likely to be moved during training camp if at all at this point, unless there is a major improvement in Wentz's injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ndirish1978 Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 (edited) They don't need to trade him and they prefer to keep him. You're manufacturing wish scenarios based on an incarcerated Bob tweet. Edited March 13, 2018 by ndirish1978 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DasNootz Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 They don't need to trade him either.. He has significant value to the organization, and his contract isn't killer. He and Wentz combined make less than 1/2 of the starting QBs in the league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Foles and Rudolph vs Darnold/Rosen and McCown our my options, I am taking the one that gets me the better rookie QB option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whatdrought Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 I was on the fence about if they would trade him or not, now it seems highly unlikely. The only way I see him being moved before August now is if a team (Like Miami) doesn't get their guy in the draft and want's to make a splash. I doubt that'll happen though. More than likely it'll be whatever team ends up without a week one starter due to injury. I still have a little nugget in my head that says to watch out for the colts if Luck is not truly ready to go. (though Brissett Does show promise) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whatdrought Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Let's not forget that Howie Roseman seems to be the next great mind in football. If he was ready to move Foles, I think he would have known exactly how to do it to get maximum value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted March 13, 2018 Share Posted March 13, 2018 The Bills are not trading draft picks for Foles with the focus on moving up to draft a QB. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
