Sam Bradford, Philadelphia Eagle

[Rome]

THANKS CHIP!

I won't be able to sleep tonight knowing you forgot the comma after "thanks."

[smeags]

grammar nazi

[MDS]

am i the only one who doesnt think bradford is that different from foles?

both are sloths
both are injury prone
both have stupid faces

the 2nd pick is asinine but other than that....you all do realize foles completely sucked last season, right?

[QB Eagles]

I don't think people are really upset purely about the switch from Foles to Bradford. It's the whole deal.

You're giving up your starting QB and multiple picks to get a QB who has had less success in the NFL and costs 8 times the money, and who may very well have been headed for the waiver wire. Doesn't seem logical.

[MDS]

the waiver wire thing is pure speculation

chip never liked foles....we know that much. he was never moving up to get MM. he likes bradford, i guess.

the salary means nothing. trading for bradford isnt going to prohibit them from singing anyone they wanted. mccourty is gone. he rejected their offer.

[ice grillin you]

yeah no one gives a shtein that they went from foles to bradford....its what they gave up to do it....why would you make a lateral move for a cripple and give up something for it

if anyone is upset about the depth chart at qb now compared to 48 hrs ago its people who wanted mariota and now know that's not happening

I will say tho that if healthy Bradford will be a much better qb in chips system than foles...granted that's a huge IF...and bradford is not nearly a sloth....hes not going to be running read options but he is pretty athletic

[MDS]

bradford was pretty athletic six surgeries ago. at this point he's got to be more carson palmer than anything

the money to me means nothing.....they might not have been able to pull this off without mccourty turning them down. but since he did, you either spend it on a guy or you like more you keep it in jeff's pocket. hmmmm.

the thing to me that makes this insane is the 2nd. the pick swapping is a minor footnote.

[PhillyPhreak54]

Yep I have a huge problem with the 2nd and a minor problem with the contract

[ice grillin you]

bradford was pretty athletic six surgeries ago. at this point he's got to be more carson palmer than anything

hes had the same two surgeries mack has had and wr has to do a lot more than a pocket qb...his movement will be fine...not ideal mind you for chips offense..they still wont have a guy that can run the read option im just saying hes nowhere near a sloth in the foles peyton brady category

[MDS]

as i mentioned when he was traded.....bradford is being restructured

[PhillyPhreak54]

Nice scoop, Ace!

[General_Failure]

as i mentioned when he was traded.....bradford is being restructured

He's been restructured by a dozen different doctors, I hope it sticks this time.

[MDS]

lol

the trade took a month to put together.....if it was a 20 minute deal like the shady one i could see them scrambling to work something out. but clearly they had dialogue with bradford's camp before the trigger was pulled about an extension/restructuring. they werent going to do this unless they had something in the works. and bradford shooed away any question about it, because its being negotiated now.

he will be the qb next year. and by next year i mean for 1 day of the preseason until he tears his acl again.

[ice grillin you]

wait you think hes gonna get thru camp?

[Rome]

It makes total sense to restructure him.  His cap hit is huge.  Restructure that bitch, Howie...
