Foles and picks for Bradford?

lol

 

What is Chip Kelly doing?  This guy's ego and the fact he has full authority is going to be his downfall.  He needs a GM to keep his ego in check and keep him from making horrible decisions.  He's a good play caller and offensive mind, we can stop there.

Chip Kelly might be the worst hire in NFL coaching history!

Is it?  With the trade, they're also swapping 1st rounders this year, and there's a conditional pick going to Philly.  If the details are accurate, Philly got a good deal.  They're now picking in the top 10, which gives them a good shot at landing Mariota.

It's now reported it's Bradford plus a 5th for Foles, 2016 2nd and 2015 4th. There is no first round swap. So.... Uh... Ya chip kelly has psychological issues

Doesn't sound like that at all.


Sounds like they traded Foles + 4th Round Pick + Conditional 2016 2nd Round Pick for Bradford + 5th Round Pick

Schefter has reported multiple things about this trade as recently as in the past hour, and he has yet to report the same thing twice.

Those were the initial details that were leaked out, and I pointed out that they could be wrong by saying "if the details are accurate". 

 

Still, the Eagles now have a veteran QB with suspect durability issues, and if he isn't able to win the starting job, they're able to get the 2nd round pick back.  At least that's how it's being reported at this time.  An hour from now Schefter may come back with something completely different.

The details really are ever changing -- getting worse and worse for the Eagles.  Unless someone mentions that they did swap firsts.

 

Conditional pick is now a 3rd if he doesn't play at all, and a 4th if he plays less than 50% of snaps.

 

Eagles fans are going nuts.  Can't blame them.  The trade makes zero sense.  Wonder if they'd be interested in Henne...

Gotta say I have no idea what Kelly is doing. And he may not either.

I'm loving the activity of this offseason, usually by this time I've stopped caring about football.

See, that's what I'm saying.  Now it's a conditional third if he doesn't play at all, and a 4th if he plays less than 50%?  That detail keeps changing.

 

The trade makes absolutely no sense if there's not adequate draft compensation to make it worthwhile.  What's even more screwy from the Eagles perspective is they let McCoy go and now they're pursuing Murray.  Chip Kelly is trying to do his darndest to show the world that Gene Smith wasn't such a lousy GM after all.  He's either going to look like an absolute genius, or an arrogant buffoon.  My money is on the latter.

Yeah this trade is so weird, how do you trade a 1 year removed pro bowler like Foles (who still played good this year), for a guy who has to be older and more injury prone and still lose picks... It makes no sense.

The incorrect trade details at first sounded like Chip was looking for more trade ammunition for Mariota, but I'm not sure what to think now

said it before will repeat it winning chess players are thinking 5 moves ahead all the time, Chips may have the last laugh and end up with the QB he wants at #2 or #4
