And do you want to talk about pressure and competition? Blake Bortles' [BLEEP] would be set alight with Nick Foles breathing on his neck. Someone comes out of that as a top tier QB and takes advantage of this defense.

Foles contract is beyond affordable. And you're giving a low 2nd RD pick for the potential to replace your QB if need be. Target a TE in RD1 or RD3. Maybe that Hurst kid out of SC or even pick up Jimmy Graham  from SEA if they don't retain him. And then look to bolster the offensive line some more.

You could maybe workout a stipulation too where if Foles starts in a play off game in 2018 they'll get another 2nd RD pick in 2019. Just to sweeten the pot a little if there's a bidding war for him.

I agree but I have never understood the fascination with trading away your good players...It seems every time we get someone good, someone wants to trade them rather than keep them...I understand wanting to better the roster, but the very most important position is QB...If you are set at the QB position with a  superbowl winning MVP QB why would you trade him rather than keep him especially if he's cheap? I would rather be set at QB for the foreseeable future rather than trade away someone who has proven to be an asset unless he commanded a kings ransom...I might even trade Carson instead of Foles...I would make that trade since its not us losing him though
