Sam Bradford + picks traded to Philly for Nick Foles

Man, and you guys wanted to bring Chip Kelly here as our next coach. Guy would have ran our organization into the ground with his experiments, and he would have traded away Cam by the way.

20-12 record. Top 5 offense two years in a row. If he came here he wouldn't be making these types of moves cause he would already have gotten his qb. You're dumb kid

How on earth did the Rams pull this trade off?

 

Not only is Bradford injury prone but he has one of the worst career YPA's of any QB in the NFL ever. Its worse than Tim Tebows FFS.

 

They literally dumped cap space, got a better and more reliable QB and got better draft picks. Truly insane.

I'm thinking Chip has been talking to some team in the top 6 picks and that they'd rather have Bradford than Foles in a trade letting the Eagles move up to get Mariota. Otherwise I truly don't understand what Chip was thinking on this trade.

The only thing that I can think of is that Pat Shumur was also the OC in STL the year they drafted him, the year he was ROY.

But that was along time ago. He was injury prone in college and it's proving the same in the Pro's.

 

I really don't see the value in trading up for Mariotta here using Sam. Why not just draft Marcus themselves.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
