Kinda intrigued to see what they paid him considering both sides agreed to only 2 years
ed: $26 mil

Need to see the numbers first. Still, two years isn't bad. Makes me think we're definitely getting a QB in the draft this year
Edit: Guaranteed isn't too bad, full number seems pretty high though...
Roads are shit in Atlanta, we need more of that. So many potholes
Lol
Not even that much. Nice.

eagles decline to use the franchise tag on bradford... so they can give him more money than what the tag would have given him? what?

Wow that is such a great deal for the eagles. Definitely the best move Howie has ever made.

At least it's short, which means they're drafting. I am hoping it's all incentive based.
$13m a year with $5m in performance incentives isn't awful.

I can't even tell if Eagles fans are serious anymore. Bradford has been a below average QB for his entire career. He wasn't even any good last season.

They did ok with OV...best of the worst scenarios at least...but yeah they need to keep Miller, even keeping Grimes, OV, Wake, Miller with projected current cap hit we'd have 20 M to spend, there isn't a single reason why we can't keep Miller
I mean club out till 4 sounds horrible to me lol I went out a few weeks ago and was home by 1am, I guess I'm all partied out. But I still go out a lot, this weekend I'm going to watch the Illusionist, a magic show that's touring, then next week I'm going to a craft beer and wine festival at a horse race track, so i do like going out, just grew out of the club scene I guess.
Is it a family business?

Yeah definitely drafting. I wish the number was lower, but I was expecting at least a 3 year deal. Overall we're overpaying, but if it doesn't work out then it's not like the Eagles are crippled for years.

lol well someone was going to pay him, silver lining is I guess they will be drafting since it's sort term.

I'm just upset he can't open them with, "CHIP!" anymore.
Well the Eagles have ranked 32nd in the league in Super Bowl victories since they entered the league, so having a quarterback that is 20th in anything is an upgrade!

Not since Keanu Reeves has any single man made so much money from being so thoroughly mediocre.

Well I am not clubbing that late that frequently anymore, it's more of a rare occasion, but I do stay at bars until 1:00am pretty frequently. My brother, who is only a year younger than me (but single) is clubbing that late every weekend pretty much. No clue how he does it.

Combined w/$78M rookie contract, Bradford will have made $114M through 9 seasons after new 2-yr @Eagles deal.25-37-1 as starter. No playoffs

Glad to see the Rams tag Johnson. Hopefully they let Jenkins walk rather than waste too much money on him.
e: is Bradford the luckiest QB in the NFL?

Are you Chip Kelly?
Think theres a pretty decent argument that Sam Bradford is the most overpaid athlete in the history of professional sports. At least most dudes have to have a contract year to get themselves a fat contract... hes never even been good enough to do that.

I used to be out even during the week in my mid twenties...showing up to work sleep deprived and hung over, good times but I think I'd literally die if I tried that now lol
I think the Eagles are betting on Sam Bradford being a Game Managing QB like Alex Smith. Run the ball, get those crucial 3rd and 5 3rd and 6 plays where he can make a smart read and move the chains.
What the Eagles do have is Jim Schwartz as a DC and he's a great DC. He'll be bring the heat on opposing QBs with 4-3 blitz packages and that type of defense if ran properly will get turnovers.
If I were the Eagles GM I would be mainly focusing on drafting defensive players for Schwartz. Sam Bradford has been in the league long enough to know what type of QB he is. He's not a Aaron Rodgers, Matthew Stafford, Tom Brady who has the arm strength to stand in the pocket and make throws into double coverage 25-30 yards down the field with pure arm strength and accuracy.

Eh, at least it's only two years...Still would have preferred a clean break with him.
