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.

They said on mike and mike today that Foles got told by Chip Kelly that he would be given every opportunity to start in Philly.

FTR, if we somehow went into training camp with Geno Smith, Nick Foles and Ricky Stanzi...that would be flat out awesome.
I have been high on all three for some time now...there was a time Foles was talked about as a top ten pick and we all know Stanzi was a second round talent. |

I just don't understand why we would give up a premium to get Foles.
You could get an IDENTICAL prospect in the 3rd or 4th round. You could get a SUPERIOR prospect in the 2nd, which is the pick some are speculating it would take to get Foles. People don't want to draft Geno Smith because of value value blah blah blah. Yet they're willing to throw a WHOLE ROUND OF VALUE down the toilet to get an unproven guy like Foles? |

I'm curious who we could get in the 3rd round this year that would compare? Just because Foles was a 3rd rounder last year in a very deep QB class doesn't mean he would be a 3rd rounder this year. I think Foles compares very favorably to Nassib and Glennon and those guys are considered late 1st, early 2nd guys.

Certainly Tyler Bray could be available in the 3rd. Nobody has his arm talent. Then there's EJ Manuel who everybody says has tools but is raw. Landy Jones? He's a 3rd or so right? |

I think Manuel will go in the 2nd. Someone will fall in love with his athleticism. |

That's my take anyway. If I watch college highlights of the two QBs side by side, there's really no comparison. Lindley just seems skiddish out there to me. Dysert looks like he's got the arm for the pros. |

I have been a fan of Foles since his first game at AZ (against my Beavers) and you hate him like he ran over your girlfriend and ****ed your dog (or maybe that's the other way around) so we probably aren't going to see this the same way. |
