You "feel like" we wasted the pick but you can't be bothered to remember how we used it? Oh and then Yolo tells you how we used it and you whine about what we gave up for Allen. Classic.

BillsFan4 Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 20 hours ago, YoloinOhio said: The Browns wanted Nick Foles, offering the 35th overall pick to the Eagles for the Super Bowl LII MVP, Mike Silver of NFL Media reports. The Eagles presented the deal to Foles, who said he would prefer to remain in Philadelphia. The spurned Browns turned to Plan B, sending a third-round pick to the Bills for Tyrod Taylor. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2018/05/22/report-eagles-turned-down-trade-with-browns-who-offered-35th-pick-for-nick-foles/ So Eagles let Foles decide? So I guess the Bills were not the team that offered a 2nd round pick for Foles after all? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They wanted a guy that could start for a year or two and went after Foles first. Not a superstar, but better than Tyrod as a fallback position. It makes sense to me.

Golden Goat Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Foles lives in South Jersey and has a 1-year-old. Perhaps it's not always about money and/or career advancement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ColoradoBills Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 20 hours ago, Kirby Jackson said: It likely didn’t come with a raise either. He could have played a few games in Cleveland for $9M or potentially a few games in Philly for $9M. I get why Foles elected to stay put. 4 hours ago, 26CornerBlitz said: Interesting to see Foles contract for 2018 after his incentives from last year kicked in. He is carrying a 13.6 million cap hit with a 8 million Dead Money hit. Looks like he got 4 million in incentives. FWIW 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigDingus Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 (edited) If I were Foles, I'd prefer to stay in Cleveland too. You're basically the hero of that city, played lights out, and have a chance to be a major contributor on a stacked team if Wentz can't play for any reason. You also have a coach that works his system around the players he has instead of the other way around, which allows you to perform to the best of your abilities. And he already has experience going to play for a dud coach in a dud system when he played for Fisher in St. Louis. Why go through that mess again when you know you're only being singed as a bridge guy? The second you do something wrong, or a game goes poorly, the blame goes to you & the fans who have no allegiance towards you will be calling for you head. Screw that.

There is just too much history of him going mediocre for extended periods during the regular season. You would think somewhat out there would claim to have plan to consistently get him to play at his peak. Foles hasn't really been mediocre unless you count those years under Jeff Fisher where he managed to make case keenum look like he belonged in the CFL..Goff a bust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Red King Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 18 hours ago, 26CornerBlitz said: Good for him. I always hate when the media goes fishing for a story by baiting athletes looking to draw a steamy quote or two. Tyrod handled this with his usual class. Okay, Tyrod was a plan B. The man's not dumb, he knows Cleveland brought him in as a bridge QB. Whether he was choice one or one-hundred changes nothing. TT's goal right now is to bust his rear and try and show he's more then a bridge. He's going to fight to be a long-term starter, either with Cleveland, or another team. Regardless of your opinion of the man's on-field ability, I think most people would agree TT handles himself with class off the field, and this is no exception. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
