Foles, Done deal

#81

Had we lowballed him and we didn't sign him, the same people complaining about how expensive this deal is would lament about how cheap the franchise is by pinching pennies at the most important position.

1010 had a good point. This will be the only time Lee has not had Blake as his QB. Could we see him step up to his potential now that he has an accurate QB?

Not so sure about that. We're getting absolutely roasted on Twitter. For good reason.

Nick Foles

He can’t have the same one as me.  Let’s just go with Dynamite.

I can't say I love the move. I'd set the over/under for starts at 9, due to Foles' age and athleticism.

Also, just a few years ago you could have had this guy for the veteran's minimum at a time we were paying a lot for Henne to back us up, and that's just terrible value. There's a Foles out there right now, and we're not paying attention. Regardless, go Nick and go Jags.

And somewhere, TMD's head is exploding, so that adds some value.

What about the other league sources saying he’s gone once Foles inks his contract?  And why would Bortles redo his deal when he’s set to make more?

I think we'll mostly be disappointed by this signing come this time next year.  But I truly hope I'm wrong.

Foles will probably give us some good games, and we'll get a few stinkers.  Hopefully we still either draft a QB to sit the bench this year or next.  Never too early to start looking for the next QB.

This is a bad move and we'll regret it.

Hey man. Bortles is gone. No need to bring him up anymore.

Per league sources, you’re avatar needs a change.

I agree with this part in bold.

He's having to balance his love for all things Eagles vs. his inclination to [BLEEP] about all things Jaguars.

Should have just let Bortles walk and signed Cousins. But still i like Foles quite a bit, I think this is about the best we could've hoped for.

So you don't think Foles will make more than 9 starts as a Jaguar? I mean, that's pretty dark. Unless he get's a Smith like injury or pulls a Bradford. 

There is a lot of revisionist history. If the Jags had signed Foles after his Rams/Chief stints, this whole board would have lambasted them no matter how much the contract was. Plus Foles probably needed the time with Andy Reid, and then Pederson, to get his head right and grow as a QB.
