No, move up in the draft and get your QB for the next decade.

I'm not a proponent of Foles, at all.

In 2013 foles:

13 games

27 tds 2 picks

60% above career competition %

- Boss34


27 catches that his receivers actually caught .

Then why did all the teams except the Chiefs pass on him?

Don't go for mediocre, go for broke.

The new kid will come out slinging with no center on the roster and zay Jones and Calvin Benjamin to throw too.

He will need to throw a bunch because the d won't stop the run or rush the passer

Sounds like a winning formula

- Boss34



History disagrees with you. Look at Jared Goff year one then year two. That's what it's going to take.

A center? Go pay Weston Richburg or a good cheap option. Centers are a dime a dozen.

And the next 3 years,
he was bad

Which U can’t explain away
Foles is an average (at best) QB who got hot again this year for a couple games,
after being completely mediocre for the rest of his career

Probably a few more they should of.

Gerbe projected math.

If he played the other 3 games , he would have had 50 tds

Nope, a guy whose mouth DROPPED when the Giants gave up all they did for Eli Manning. Worth every penny, it was a steal.

History has examples of both.

Losing Eric wood hurt this team . Good team guy.

Looks like you're probably getting what you asked for. Tyrod is a Brown.

EDIT: I have no idea if this is old news. Time zones and such. But I just found out about it.

That makes me feel better, because you are usually wrong in every discussion with everyone on here.

😀

- Boss34


U had to go there, huh?

Alright

Trading for a QB who had 3 good games in the pat 4 years is utterly stupid

Your logic just excuses the majority of his career...
actually, i guess i should say your LACK of logic

Please enthrall me with the stories of NFL lore where a freaking center led the team to victory in the SB.

Then take a look at the league the past two decades and tell me about the top QB's in the league and where they were taken.

Always a crapshoot, but top 5 to top 10 have a much better chance.

I'm not saying I'm right %100 here.

I thought foles was good a few years ago
I watch football.

He got paid big money to go to the rams
They obviously liked him
Was unsuccessful with a un-qb- friendly mustaches coach

Signed with Phili
Won the Superbowl and map

Up and down for sure. But worth a mild risk by the bills

Would you rather have foles or tyrod going into next year?
- Boss34


Why does it have to be one or the other?

PS...
the EAGLES won the SuperBowl...
NOT FOLES
Yeah, he played well
I’m not taking that away

He also played poorly for 3 straight years,
which i apparently are just ignoring

Circumstance

He couldn't possibly have gotten better either right?

- Boss34



Again, if it was a whole season and not 3 good games, sure.

But it's a massive risk, because we've seen what he does on average to bad teams.

Good points for sure.

I'm 50/50 on given up the farm for #2

Today I'm against it. Today I want the bills to draft a bunch of Tre white type guys with 6 early picks

Except you're not getting him for a MILD risk, it's going to cost .....ALOT.....and he's four years into a career.

He only played 3 games one year.
And guess what:
His team wasn't good. Same logic right

Eagles won the Superbowl he didn't
Eagles wern't good so he wasn't good

Is it just me, or are there a lot more player trades than usual leading up to the league year start date?

Plus I don't think you're getting to #2, I think Gettleman is putting out a smoke screen and is taking a QB. Eli ain't getting younger and the Giants better not blow this.

Looks like either the Browns plan on trading down, or taking Barkley number 1 and attempting a run with Tyrod.

Yes. There is. WAY more trades in the NFL. That trend has become way more popular in recent years.
