Article: Chiefs Most Likely Landing Spot for Foles
Now that Vick has re-signed with Philly, it makes sense that this stuff would start coming out given the Reid/Foles connection.

6th maybe

(countdown to the end of the world)
10 9 8 7 6...... |
I'm down for Foles..........
and Geno Smith. |
I like Foles. I think a rookie plus Foles would be good, but I fear we'd have to give too high a pick.
|
Cassel straight up?
|
I guess Andy feels he must finish what he started.
|
When Jimmy Johnson got to Dallas he pretty much immediately picked up two QBs: Troy Aikman and Steve Walsh. He got Walsh in the supplemental draft. He honestly didn't know who was gonna be his QB, he was hedging his bets, and he picked Walsh because he was his QB at Miami.
I don't have a problem with us trading a pick for Foles, even something as high as a third. I don't see any QB prospects in the third being any better, and none that Reid would have a better familiarity with. Oh yeah, and Jimmy flipped Walsh for 3 draft picks a year later so...it was all good. |

I don't mind Foles at all for the right price assuming that we are also getting one in the draft. I could live with Geno and Foles. I wouldn't want to give up more than a 4th for him and not sure we could get him for that.
|
And now onto foles :facepalm:
Hasn't Chip kelly said theyll be battling for the starting role in camp though? |
Quote:
One thing all of Chiefs fans can agree is that we need to somehow get at least 2 qb's and make sure Quinn and Cassel are off the team. |
"Reid and Pederson love Foles' size..."
I've wondered if Reid doesn't like his QBs sturdily built. Then there is Stafford, who is built well but is injured too often. |
Would they pleeeeease shut up about this slapdick

:spock: |
If any other team has pick 1.1 they are all talking QB. Why can't the chiefs have nice things?
|
Foles is garbage. Utter garbage.
Stay away from that shitshow. |
Everyone is getting caught up with draft Geno and only Geno... well there is a strong possibility we will bring back NONE of the QB's on roster and at worst Stanzi. So we still need to get another QB. Either we draft two QB's or we are getting a FA QB to go along with the drafted QB. The pure thought of bringing in a FA QB sends most of you into a death spiral.
Would you rather have Foles for a 3rd ronder or have to draft someone like EJ Manuel or Zac Dysert in the 3rd/4th round. Personally I'd much rather take Foles. Then there is always Alex Smith....... |

But do the Chiefs deem there to be a QB ready to start day 1 from this draft? Sure if you ask the "fans" there are at least 3-4 guys that will be ready to play at a high level day one but it is apparent many in the NFL don't believe that with this years QB class. That is why you see so many beat the FA QB drum.
Well that is a fine to say SNR about Foles but what if the NFL people think Geno sucks? Just saying. |
I liked Foles better than any other QB past the first round. He throws receivers open. I watched all his tape last year and was hoping the Chiefs would draft him. Give em a 3rd and less take em.

The first pick in the 3rd round for Foles would be an abortion. GIANT abortion. |

|
To you yes but the Chiefs and many the NFL maybe wouldn't see it that way. Again they may not see any QB in this class ready to start day one.
|
What if NFL people think Geno sucks but think Nick Foles is awesome?
What if unicorns break open my door and anally rape me with their horns? |
Quote:
Nick Foles and Geno Smith played in the same offense in college. The difference: One QB was good and the other one ****ing sucked. Guess which one is which? |
At least Reid had a year to work with Foles to see what he's made of. If he still wants the guy, it's hard to argue it's a bad move.
|
Didn't chip just state yesterday that he was going to hold an open QB competition between foles and Vick...?

Gee, all the people that want to wed Geno Smith in a private ceremony for just friends and family hate Foles, unreasonably so. Foles shows promise, but after less than half a season in his rookie year,with a bad o line, he sucks! Just say it he sucks translation: he threatens Geno with the first pick.
|
I'd give a 4th for him.. Still need to draft one in the first.

Foles passes the eye test. He played well behind the worst oline in football last year.
|
Can he throw it beyond 10 yards?

In the pros, behind a subpar offensive line, he put up putrid stats. Most of those 6 TDs came in garbage time action against teams like the Cowboys. If we were meeting face-to-face, I would ask you to look me square in the eye and tell me Nick Foles could potentially be a good pro QB. And if you did that without laughing, I'D laugh at you for being a ****ing dumbass. |

Would not go higher than 5th this year, or perhaps a couple late picks this year and next year (6ths/7ths?), but would not give a 4th. Don't see Foles as long term starter, but could bridge for a short spell and longer term backup. |
JFC...

And I don't think Foles sucks, but he's certainly not great. For me anyway, I'm thinking QB2. |

The Jets should trade for him.
|
Let me preface this before all the hate comes in. I want us to draft Geno Smith #1. But right now I have my doubts it's going to happen. Outside of Geno or Tyler Wilson, is there a rookie QB who I think could do better than Foles? I'm not so sure.
I know I'd much rather have Foles over a Matt Flynn or Alex Smith. We know what those guys are. We don't really know that much about Foles being he just completed his rookie year. In 7 games he posted... 60.8%, 1,699 yards (242.7 YPG), 6 TDs, 5 Ints, 79.1 QbR So take that out over a 16 game season. 60.8%, 3,883 yards, 13 TDs, 11 Ints, 79.1 Qbr I don't think that's too shabby for a rookie and considering what a train wreck that team was. |
So much chatter about NOTHING.
Foles isn't going anywhere. Vick's deal is essentially 1 year. They're not just gonna dump Foles. |
Most likely landing spot? Plane never leaves the ground, he stays in Philly.

This. His stats aren't bad considering he was playing most of that time behind a terrible o-line, with his #1 RB out and a revolving door at WR AND he went through the off-season as the #3 QB so didn't have a lot of practice snaps. |

Foles is under his rookie contract. He'll still be under contract 2 years from now. There's a reason they gave Vick what amounts to a 1-year deal. They're not gonna get rid of Foles. |
I'm sure Kelly wants to keep Foles, he has some promise, and is good competition at QB. We don't want him because FOLES SUCKS! iow Foles puts Geno at 1 in jeopardy.

No thanks.

Which basically puts every available option on the table. Foles is as good an option as any right now. |

Stop whining. |

Hasselbeck would be perfect for Geno. If he's not available, then just draft another guy. |

Quote:
I'd rather draft an unknown in the 4th than give up a 3rd for an unknown like Foles. |
Quote:
|
I'd give up a 7th rounder for Matt Flynn as long as we drafted Geno at 1.
|
Quote:
A 3rd? No ****ing way. |
Quote:
Wouldn't really consider that garbage. |
Foles is not garbage. This is not Matt Cassel 2.0. If you could get Foles for a anything less than a first I'd say take it. The kid's got a gun and if Reid wants him it's because he's already had the kid for a year and he thinks he's got 'it'.
IF we don't draft a QB in round one, I'd say Foles and maybe Nassib or Dysert in round 2 or 3 would be the next best option. I'd take Foles over Alex Smith, I certainly would. This is not a 'backup'. This is not a starter that lost his job due to poor play. This is a kid who, as a rookie, played quite well on an absolute disaster of a team. |

At this point a relevant question would be given what we'd have to give up.
Would I rather have Nick Foles or... Mike Glennon, Zac Dysert, Landry Jones, EJ Manuel, Tyler Bray, Matt Flynn or Alex Smith. For me I'd take Foles over Flynn, Smith, Dysert. The rest for me it's a push. None of the above options get you all that fired up. |
If we trade for Foles......say goodbye to drafting a QB in the first 3 rounds.
|
What makes anyone think Philly is going to do anything but keep him?
|
Quote:
You could literally get someone just like him in the 3rd round this year. |

Reid only started Foles last year because his hand was forced. When Vick wasn't turning the ball over....he was injured. Reid had no other choice. And I may be wrong....but I don't think that Reid was in charge of the drafts last year.
