I wonder if he feels if he's earned the right to be a franchise quarterback. I think he has. Super Bowl MVP.

I would say it depends on how TC and DC feel about the QB's coming out this year. it's been pretty much a general consensus that it's a weak QB crop in this draft.

So my thinking is why not go get Foles and sign him to a 4 year deal with a possible 5th year option and wait another year or two to see what the 2020 or 2021 draft class has to offer as far as QB's go?


I would rather take a chance on Foles who has shown he can win in this league and win NOW rather than roll the dice on weak prospect in the draft and set the team back another 5-6 years.

I kind of suspect that this is the way that they go.  In my opinion, it's a better option rather than rolling the dice on some college QB, especially in a weak draft class.  Nick Foles would be my first choice with possibly Ryan Fitzpatrick as a second choice (I wince as I type this) and Joe Flacco as a third choice.  If anyone thinks that the top QB in the draft is the way to go... well, prepare for more losing seasons.  While yes, some rookie QB's come in and make an immediate impact for their teams, I just don't see it this next season.
