1) Andy Reid liked him enough to draft him in the third round, even though he had just committed to Vick with a 100 million dollars. 2) he just turned 24 and has the tools. 3) experience in the exact system we run and the skill set to run it. ...... Lets not act like Foles looked like trash....he played well for a rookie. |

MIGHT have the tools. Might. Quote:
1) The Eagles should dump him after his rookie season, thus making him "trash" by definition and 2) The Chiefs would bring him in to be a backup, thus making him "trash" by definition. There's 2 distinct thought processes going on in this thread and they're not gelling. Yes, Foles is a talent. He's NOT COMING HERE for a 5th-round pick and he's NOT COMING HERE to compete with a rookie. All of the things you said about him above are absolutely true. Which is why the idea of getting him AND Geno will NEVER come to fruition. Ever. |

He could absolutely come here for #65 and be the backup. I doubt anyone is going to give a higher pick for him, because he hasn't shown he's worth it at this point. This isn't an Alex Smith "start me or die" situation.

If he hasn't shown he's worth it, why are we giving up picks for him? Or if he IS worth it, why are the Eagles shipping him out? Face it, no matter how you slice it, there are a DOZEN or more better options out there. |

Foles and a Rookie is my favorite scenario. Don't want old Hasselbeck for one year, don't want QBs proven to be nothing but backups. Foles and a rookie would be two QBs with promise. |

We need 1 starter and 1 backup. People are obsessed with hedging their bets. |

Why would Philly deal him for less than a 3rd if he is this diamond in the rough? Anything more than that and they can F off. I'm not seeing a way this works.
