Eagles Have 83 Million Invested In Their QB's

[mcnabb7542]

Well for starters having 83M tied up with QBs. Two questionable QBs and an unknown rookie.

They resigned Bradford cause at the time there wasn't shit on the open market for a veteran starter QB

Daniels was a "security blanket" signing for Dougie, anytime a "offense coach is hired and put in as HC they bring some QB with them

Wentz, it was the whole draft process, I think as they went through the pre draft stuff that fell more and more in love with this kid. Nobody knows what he's going to be, but why not take the kid you believe could lead the 10-12 yrs....


Bradford will start and be on display for his next team, it's not rocket science, if he wants to stay a starter in this league he will have to play for it.

what did you guys see in those 77 passes over the 6 years?
Security blanket seems extreme.

He's as good as Schaub when he was traded to Texas.

We're that many teams breaking down the door to sign Bradford? Plus the Eagles told Bradford they were going to move up in the Draft for a QB. The Eagles overpaid.

Daniels makes more than some teams starters, and he should have been the stopgap between now and Wentz. The Eagles over paid.

I like Wentz, but the Eagles traded away the farm for an unknown prospect from a small school. The Eagles overpaid.

Do you see a trend here.

perhaps but that hasn't been seen. He's still 5-11 with 70 plus lifetime attempts to assume security blanket.

We laugh now, but who's going to be laughing come September when the Eagles unveil their deadly new 3 QB formation? We will.

well we know they can't throw so it shouldn't be too hard to stop

Alright I'll bite:

What "stupid moves after Kelly's departure" did they make?

They threw money at Bradford and Daniels. Then they gave up the farm for a questionable prospect in the draft. Hell, Goff had more completions than Wentz had attempts every single season.

As Mayock said, if you don't have a franchise QB you're not relevant in the league.
Bradford is a band-aid to having a somewhat competitive year. Will never win a SB and will never be a franchise QB.
Daniel is the long term backup, knows his role, knows the offense. Easily worth the money.
Wentz is the franchise QB. Not a questionable prospect. NFL scouts were drooling over him last year. University of Houston QB's traditionally have tons of completions. Doesn't mean crap.

Eagles did the best thing they could do to fix Kelly's screw ups.

Two possible trends the one I said and the other is if the "small school" QB craps out...

How about OVERPAID?

The problem with giving up all of those picks is that it doesn't set the team up for success in the future. When Atlanta traded up for Julio Jones they picked a great receiver. Unfortunately those lost picks translated into a team with very little depth. I think we're going to see that with both the Rams and the Eagles.

If they don't get Fletcher Cox resigned then yes, if they do well then no...

Eagles didn't have that many gapping holes going into the draft, the addressed the OL, and secondary, the two biggest needs, someone will be stupid to trade for Bradford next spring, if the Eagles eat some of the contract so be it, the will be given mid round picks and that is where they need to farm picks back...

Ridiculous.

So I've got this "water" front property in Florida you may be interested in...

Florida will be underwater in 5 years.

Florida will be underwater in 5 years.

I've also got some future water front property in Georgia if you'd like...

Compared to other teams they are not overspent on the position, however compared to other teams their QB's either suck or are unproven

hey....philly fans are happy and down with the direction.
It's All Good!

And last preseason they were happy and good with Chip

 

[HammerDown]

But their team friendly contracts.

Sounds like 49ers fans justifying the Kaepernick deal.
