Free Agency Chatter...

Where do you get McClain is signing elsewhere?

I don't at all. We need to resign him.

 

[Deuce]

It's odd though. Is Bradford more sought after then Foles by someone? Otherwise why wouldn't you just deal Foles as part of the trade up.

Because Bradford can be solid when healthy. Foles sucks and his accuracy is a big issue.

At this point I have to believe Chip Kelly has some sort of plan at the end of this. I find it hard to believe he is this clueless.

As an aside, reports are that Gore backed out 1) because they lost Maclin, and 2) because several former players spoke poorly of Kelly and his methods.

Laughing my ass off at people falling for Fake Schefter and Rapoport Twitter accounts.

Peter King was a particularly hilarious one.

It's been pretty obvious Kelly simply doesn't like Foles.

Raiders are supposedly making a run at DeMarco Murray, along with the Jaguars.

Wait, what's fake? I missed it.

There are fake Rapoport and Schefter accounts and even NFL media people like Peter King are falling for it and retweeting.

Well I think they both suck for separate reasons. Bradford sucks because he is always hurt. Foles sucks because he is a product of the system. I don't think either guy is going to light it up somewhere else.

But if you're looking to move up in the draft with Bradford, there must be a team out there that prefers Bradford to Foles and has a trade already in place. Even though obviously the Rams prefer Foles to Bradford. Or Chip is really crazy and will keep Bradford for some reason.

Right, the fact that they swapped 2nds, which is a slight Eagles upgrade, tells me they have roughly the same value but if anything Foles has a slight edge in value.

Some rumors that Rams and Eagles swapped firsts as part of the Foles/Bradford deal. If so, Eagles now at 10.

They swapped 2nds.

I doubt he even takes a snap in an Eagles uniform. I bet he goes to another team (Tennessee) when Kelly trades up.

They didn't sign Sanchez back to be Bradford's backup. He's a Mariota placeholder.

Even as a Mariota placeholder, Bradford still won't be enough to use as leverage to trade up high enough for Mariota unless they throw in at least another 1st round pick and maybe a 2nd to go along with him and the 20th pick because of the injury history and just to get to #2 overall. Kelly will literally fleece himself in a trade like that. Anyone with a partially functional brain will know that he only traded for Bradford to use as leverage, making the cost of the 2nd overall pick higher.

 

[boozeman]

Adam Caplan, who is up there with Glazer in terms of reliability and accuracy, is saying the Eagles are interested in Murray.

[boozeman]

Hell yeah it is a great deal.

Look, I get we are trying to get younger. But just think, we are paying Dunbar and a punter nearly $3M combined if they make the team.
