Ian Rapoport says he still wouldn't rule out a trade up for Mariota.

Everyone's still trying to make some sort of sense of this trade.

Do the Redskins want Bradford? That's the question I suppose. I think Kelly is trying to keep his options open in case Tennessee takes Mariota at number 2 and he can't trade up to get Mariota.

 

[Roddslayer]

Yeah but the Seahawks have Lynch, why would they ever run a pass play in the red zone?

Pretty easy to stop the run, no matter the running back, when you know it's coming. Now with Graham it'll open up play action, read option even more in the red zone.

When something makes no sense, anything is possible!

Absolutely love the Haloti Ngata trade. He's always been one of my favorite DTs in the league and consistently performed. Also has championship leadership to bring to the team and we'll need it this year.

At this point I think we either resign Fairley or CJ Mosley and stick to the 4-3 scheme we ran last year. Any other signings at this point is just icing on the cake.

I was getting worried we'd lose both Suh and Fairley have to use a high round draft pick on a DT but since we used a 4th last year on Caruan Reid we can use those higher picks for impact players on offense.

This was a brilliant Plan B on the part of the front office.

 

[effzee]

Who even cares anymore. They just lost all their leverage and bargaining Chip in Foles.

Who in the world wants Bradford in the top 6.

Let's be real. The Mariota deal is over. This was Chip's back up plan all along. I would have thought it would be Foles since they were only paying him 669k. Went from that to Bradford who is owed 13M and coming off of a terrible injury.

Fuck everything

 

[Man God]

Bradford if healthy might be the best of the three (Sanchize, Bradford, Foles) but this deal is wretched.

Thankful for the opportunity to start my career in Philly. Going to miss my teammates & Eagles fans who supported me.
@STLouisRams I'm excited for this new chapter and looking forward to what's ahead in St. Louis. Go Rams!

They’ve been lurking in the cornerback market, and now the #Redskins get a visit from a talented one: Perrish Cox on the way tomorrow.

Hmmm. Always thought they would re-sign Cox and let Culliver go. Can't lose both of them.

The #49ers have discussed restructuring/reducing WR Stevie Johnson's contract with his reps but there's been no resolution thus far.

I think they will end up keeping Johnson, but we'll see.

@BigBlueUnited: #Giants are heavily considering Rahim Moore at the safety position. - via ESPN Denver

Um..duh. By "heavily considering" you mean best be writing a check for either he or Ron Parker. I'll reiterate, our secondary is in dire straits if we don't come out of free agency with a safety worth a shit.

Per Peter King:

Just got told, “Chip came hard after Bradford. That’s why this happened.” So there’s that

There were other teams, multiple, involved in the chase for Bradford.

Holy shit, I need to hear this.

Why did so many people want Bradford? Do they not see his ridiculous contract, and badness.

Clown.

I like Ngata a lot as a player but :jnc:

 

[gutshot]

Browns reportedly one of the teams in on Bradford.

Chip came hard after Bradford what

If St. Louis was moving this season, he would have been the white Fresh Prince.

 

[BlackGhost]

Foles finally got traded Eagles bros ;_;

 

[Officerrob]

"Chase for Bradford"? Lolololol

 

[Godslay]

I like Ngata a lot as a player but :jnc:

He was on a championship team, so I don't see anything wrong with his statement.

 

[Spinluck]

I still remember the Polian days where dude absolutely abstained from free agency for the most part. I always hated seeing teams sign players and shit, and we did nothing. Still getting used to this.

That man sure had quite the drafting streak though.

Oh

Don't we already have Jeremy Hill on the roster to cover the receiver with drop problems role?

 

[Lambtron]

Also has championship leadership to bring to the team and we'll need it this year.

Oh man.

WIP caller thinks Barkley's starting in Philly lol

:jnc at multiple teams chasing Bradford

Makes about as much sense as what Chip did today

Stephen Hill?

LOL. It's not because of what happened today. Other issues within the station, but that was funny lol.

 

[Thorakai]

Chip's master plan is a mystery to even Chip himself.

 

[Ramsiege]

Bradford is a good QB when healthy. He just needs a good oline.

 

[StylesClash]

So we're done for the night. Looks like it.

 

[effzee]

Can't wait for my Bradford jersey.

Who were the other teams interested? Are they in top 6? Titans cause Locker retired?

 

[knicks]

The Eagles could have traded Nick Foles and Lesean McCoy together to the Bucs for their #1 pick and Mike Evans.

Honestly, what is this guy doing. He traded the superior QB for an inferior QB who is also somehow getting paid over $15 million. Nick Foles is better than Bradford, is also getting paid peanuts. McCoy got traded for nothing. If you want to trade McCoy at least get something valuable, not a sophomore player coming off injury.

They fucking paid Byron Maxwell $60 million. What the fuck are they doing? He is good, but they didn't have to pay anywhere close to that.

...Eagles got more value for McCoy than they had any business getting.

Titans are locked in on using Mettz. Unless they pull a fast one and trade for Brees . We drafting Williams is probably a done deal. Like I said that's if we draft

 

[Nemesis121]

My favorite post from the Eagles forum...

does the league drug test coaches?

 

[ActStriker]

He was on a championship team, so I don't see anything wrong with his statement.

To be fair, he probably blocked it out of his memory.

I think Browns were one, but personally kinda glad we didn't get him. I think the Titans moved on from locker, seems like mett or the possibility they draft Mariota. But I'd like to see them stay with Mett, would make for a more exciting draft
