    Lol Sanchez, Bradford there is no way Chip Chubby trade up for Marcus now.

    That must mean Mariota sucks (/stupid people that think Kelly will last two more seasons - he'll be a college HC in two y years or less, #harboldballcoachaugh)

    Eagles acquired QB Sam Bradford in exchange from the Rams for QB Nick Foles and draft-pick compensation.

    Stunning. The Eagles are now less likely to trade up for Marcus Mariota, and are taking on a player significantly more expensive and injury prone than Foles. Bradford has more pure arm talent than Foles, but isn't necessarily more accurate. It's another bold, polarizing move from coach/GM Chip Kelly. For what it's worth, Bradford will be reuniting with his rookie-year coordinator Pat Shurmur. Bradford's injury history is such that he needs to be paired with another veteran or early-round rookie. If he can stay on the field — a colossal "if" — he'll have breakout potential in Philly, but Rams fans have heard that chorus for years.


    Eagles will trade Nick Foles and draft picks to the Rams in exchange for Sam Bradford.

    Chip Kelly inherited Nick Foles, an immobile quarterback who showed some serious flaws before getting hurt last season. Now he gets an upgrade in Bradford, who has a massive contract (that's up after this season) and has been unable to stay healthy. It may not prevent Kelly from trying to go up and get Marcus Mariota in the draft, but it certainly takes some of the urgency off. Bradford projects as a clear-cut fantasy QB1 while operating Kelly's fastbreak offense.

    Wow, Eagles look like they downgraded quickly on offense. I think Bradford has potential, but Foles is all around better.

    Cool!!
    Eagles are out of MM sweepstakes. Meaning either Tenn aor Jets are settled on him

    So.... we might get Mariotta learning for a year behind Fitz. With Geno holding clipboard

    Or Simms holding clipboard while Geno sweeping the streets... whatever

    Not unless Kelly trades one of the two to Tampa for the #1 overall pick.

    that would be incredibly risky considering its as likely as not that Mariota wont even be there for the Jets to take at #6 so I doubt the Eagles would take on Bradford just to MAYBE do a deal with the Jets.
