Strong trade for the Eagles. Foles wasn't a good fit for the system. Had no future. Bradford has tons of talent but can't stay healthy. Guy only has a year left on his contract. If shit goes south Philly can spend that money elsewhere. If he finally stays healthy he can be one of the better QBs in the NFL in that system. I really like what Kelly has done in the front office. He doesn't need highly paid skill players at RB/WR to run his offense. Spend the money elsewhere. He's improving the defense. Quality work.
Same here. You think Chip Kelly hasn't watched a ton of video on Sam in this fast paced offense and Shurmur who is his OC and Sam's his first year think he is the guy. He isn't going anywhere. I think we'll find out in a hurry if Sam was the problem or the Rams. My bet is it was the Rams. This is a great setup for Sam if he can stay healthy. Now they just need a receiver who will replace Maclin. The only thing i don't like about this deal is I may have to start rooting for the Eagles. If they ever get Murray in the backfield I'll have no choice but to root for them.my thoughts exactly. I love the Bradford move for the eagles - as long as he stays healthy of course.
