Kessler is a young QB with a good completion % that costs us a conditional 7th rounder...
Not sure why anyone would "hate" the move outside of hating everything in their life lol

He's a backup at best and a camp arm at worst for next to nothing.

Those of you hoping for a QB @ 29... this move doesn't negate that option.

Keep in mind he was with the Browns. A terrible roster with a bad HC (from what I hear on the interwebz) with an awful front office (from what I witnessed during the Sashi Brown era)

I'm not saying this kid will become anything...
but trading a conditional 7th rounder means the team doesn't expect much other than possibly filling a back up role.

People on here freak out over backup QBs for the weirdest reasons.
If your back up is in... you're likely in trouble.

Situations like the Eagles and Vikes are outliers and not the norm.
Most teams don't have great back ups. It is why they are back ups....
Hell most teams can't get a decent starter.... and then there's the idea that these back up QBs perform well under the system they are in and perhaps we see that when Keenum ultimately fails next season.
Foles will be protected by being the backup for another year... we've seen that guy have a great year and then disappear.... backups are backups for a reason. Hoping we sign some superstar to be a backup is silly...
