Those same people think Teddy Bridgewater, Nick Foles, and Tyrod Taylor going to be the savior of the franchise which is laughable to me. However,  Blake  has never been good enough to carry a team but the reality is only five to seven7 quarterbacks in NFL has the ability to do that on a yearly basis.

I don't disagree with most of your points, but I can't imagine how you compare Foles with Bridgewater and Taylor.

That's a head scratcher for sure.  Too broad a brush to paint that sentiment for sure.

I can understand folks not believing in Foles.  But, if we were to bring Foles in we'd do so expecting a plug and play winner and certain playoff contender.  Anything less would be a disappointment.

Bridgewater and Taylor we would expect plug and play competitors with much less certainly in the W column.

That being said, I wouldn't put my eggs in the "savior of the franchise" basket for any of the three long term.

You pay Foles, you're still likely to take a backup this year or a future starter next year in the draft.

If you go Bridgewater or Taylor, you're drafting a potential future starter this draft and likely next as well.

The draft is where the "savior" will be, and there's no guarantee we'll get the right one.  Free agency or draft, it's never as easy as pressing the "savior" button.  We should know this by now.
