He seems to be going foul with the Eagles. A few years ago he was considered upper echelon. He's struggling this year but hey...everyone goes thru that.

I have less faith in a draft pick than a free agent! At least a free agent, you've seen them perform in the NFL. Does it not work sometimes, sure, but I think that has more to do with system or personnel. As in Foles, I believe he MUST have a team with TE.

What yall say about Wentz?

There was already another thread about this. Trading for him is moronic on both sides. The Iggles would accelerate 35M of prorated bonus onto their current cap with a trade, and the trading team would pay him 25M guranteed next year and over 20M for the following 3 years after that. With the twoth pick of the darft, you can get someone better than Wentz, and someone a whole heckuva lot cheaper.

Releasing him would be even dumber for the iggles, it would be nearly $60M against their cap to rip up his contract.

He is the albatross around every iggle fan's neck.

Dalton from Medford, WI
If Vic is head coach of the Eagles, does he bench Carson Wentz?
Continuing to play him is only making matters worse. He's lost his game. He's not setting his feet and he's afraid to step up in the pocket. He looks skittish; he's peeking at the rush. His delivery makes Kaepernick's look Marino-like. If Pederson can't rebuild him, he'll have to trade him to the Bears.

beat me to it, biscuit. Kudos to Vic for dropping a line sure to please his Packer readership.
