Re: NFL 2018: From the Draft to the Super Bowl
Odd, as in predicament. It's a great position to be in, but do you want to sit on Foles and let him rot on the bench or pull the trigger and get some long-term pieces to build the franchise?Headhunter wrote:What's odd about it?

Re: NFL 2018: From the Draft to the Super Bowl
I'm sure they have been taking calls on Foles but the value is not there because teams around the league do not view him as a long term starter. A team will place a greater value on its own backup than another team will, so they're better off just keeping him. They probably want at least a 2nd round pick for Foles but a team trading for Foles would not pay that price because that team is probably rebuilding and invested in another young QB.Jason wrote:Odd, as in predicament.

If Brady got hurt, I could see the Pats trading for him. He'd be a good for there for a few games.Headhunter wrote:I'm sure they have been taking calls on Foles but the value is not there because teams around the league do not view him as a long term starter.

Re: NFL 2018: From the Draft to the Super Bowl
We can't forget that teams have seen Foles get two opportunities to be the full time starter and he lost both jobs. From Philly's standpoint, that is the best part of this situation. Would be a lot different if we did not see him fail twice.Headhunter wrote:What's odd about it? It's just a good position.

Apparently Vikings fans booed Siemian last night. It took three games for another fanbase to be sick of him. They're pleading for Sloter to be the #2.

Dude is getting booed as the backup. He's not even sniffing mediocre.

Re: NFL 2018: From the Draft to the Super Bowl
Lol. Go ahead and base your judgment on a chorus of three boos from a fan base of a team that hasn't won jack, nor shit. Backup receivers should learn routes.

4/8 for 3 yards.

Re: NFL 2018: From the Draft to the Super Bowl
4 receivers caught a ball and all averaged less than a yard. Sounds like a personal problem.
