To me, its more than the defense.  The entire OL went down last year with Blake, we had average, at best, TE play, the running game was meh, and the passing game was horrid.  Saying, with a healthy OL and same or worse running game, Foles would help us over the hump was a huge reach.  We've needed a receiving threat at TE for too long, the OL needed guard upgrades and T.  Yeldon needed replacing and we needed WR depth.  That's just on offense.  Foles was never going to fix that in any lifetime and the FO needs to go for buying into that period.
