Rc2catch Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 It’s been discussed numerous times already. It doesn’t make any sense for them to trade him, and look at his dead cap.. End thread / 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I remember there were more players that were Unsupportive of Wentz and were more in favor of Foles. Honestly I don’t think Wentz is all that, I think Foles is a lot better and it showed when he was playing that the team had more respect for Foles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d say no more than a 4th round maybe a 5th round pick. Thoughts?? We had a thread about this a couple of weeks ago: Bottom line, the Eagles were desperately thin at WR last year when Agholor and Jeffrey were hurt. What they need is more help at WR, not less. Agholor is a free agent. Moreover, if the Eagles trade Jeffrey, they take on a $16.2M cap hit from his 4 years of amortized signing bonuses, which is actually larger than the $15.4M cap hit if they keep him. I don't understand why people feel it would benefit the Eagles to do this at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IgotBILLStopay Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 If we trade for a WR, it should only be for Stefon Diggs or AJ Green. I am not sure Alshon Jeffrey would make an incremental contribution to our WR corps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

947 Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Trading draft assets for guys like Alshon who not only are past their prime, but carry a huge contract is what dysfunctional franchises do. I could see the Bills doing this in the Whaley era, but we're not that organization anymore. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another situation of shedding his contract. Kind of like the rumors around David Johnson. Except that if they trade him, they actually accumulate a higher cap charge this year with his accelerated signing bonus. I don't think they have the cap space for that. I mean, they're not tight at $42M, but they've got a bunch of key free agents they need to do something about either re-sign or replace, including LT (are they moving on from Peters?), their other top WR Agholor, both their starting safeties and a starting CB, starting DT. 1 hour ago, BuffaloBills1998 said: Technically they did win a Super Bowl with him.

They actually won a Super Bowl with Foles, and came a couple of bad throws from at least competing in the NFC Championship to go back to another. I will hand it to the Iggles though, they had the courage of their QB convictions to move on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gambit Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 I'm amazed at how many threads you have managed to create in such a short amount of time. And no to trading for a broken down WR. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blacklabel Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 I've read/heard that Wentz can come off like a know-it-all, even arguing with coaches at times about how things should be run. I watched the All or Nothing on the Eagles from this season and I got the sense that Wentz kinda has some trouble relating to his teammates in a non-football way. If he wasn't talking football, he seemed kinda timid and awkward. The life of that team is Brandon Graham, dude talks a lot and he's funny as hell.

This ain’t happenin’ My only guess at why it would happen is the rumor that Jeffery was the one leaking the Wentz stuff. Maybe they don’t think they can have him back in the locker room under any circumstance. In that case, why not see if they can get anything at all for him?
