Funny thing is, the Eagles want Bradford to start and Wentz to sit and learn but lol

Doesn't help they're paying Chase Daniel a good amount as well.  He may be their day 1 starter which honestly could bee better for them than glass legs Sam.  Daniel will start until Wentz takes over most likely mid season unless Chase somehow works out really well.

I don't blame Bradford for wanting a trade. He probably wouldn't have signed a contract extension with the Eagles if they had said to him they were going to draft a first round quarterback (eg Lynch at #13), or trade up for a quarterback in the first round (eg Lynch, Goff or Wentz at #8, or Goff or Wentz at #2). He would have hit free agency and signed elsewhere. So I don't blame him and if he gets his chance to leave, then good luck to him because he's going to need it. 

Though the Eagles could always decide to relegate him to third string and not make him activate on game days, like the Redskins did to RGIII. A bit spiteful? Sure. But the Eagles could start Chase Daniel and let Wentz or Goff be the back, or they could let those two compete for the starting position. Essentially sideline Bradford and cut/trade him next off season if they don't want to do it this year or don't have an adequate trading partner.

      Bryce’s new look. He looks like a grown up

      By SCO96 · Posted

      I feel the same way. Bryce hasn't proven himself to be so good that he would clearly lap anyone that we'd bring in the compete for the starting job. I think the team is actually afraid to do that. If Bryce goes down does anyone think Kenny Pickett is solid option to replace him?. We can control him for 2026 and 2027. The problem is 2028. Unless he takes a massive leap forward ability wise, I don't see how Carolina can justify paying B.Y. $50 million a year. So far, Bryce has not shown that he can CONSISTENTLY carry a team. He needs to be carried by a strong offensive line, running game, pass catchers and a respectable defense. If he's lacking any of those things I don't think we can make the playoffs in 2026/2027 unless the NFC South is as bad (or worse) than 2025. Unfortunately, athletes and agents have EGOs! When he has a chance for a 2nd contract his management team will probably insist on a "market deal" and feel insulted if they don't get one. That leaves a couple of options if his play hasn't significantly improved. 1) Let him walk and test the market. 2) Franchise him for the 2028 season if you're still not sure about what to do. 3) Extend him to a team friendly deal that pays him below the "current market" which would allow the team to continue to build a solid team to support him. 4) Over pay him and pretty much ruin any chance of becoming a consistent contender. The last option is the LEAST DESIRABLE ONE. The 2026 season is a pivotal season for Bryce and the Carolina Panthers. The success of the next 5-7 years could ultimately be decided on how well plays the next 2 seasons.

      Drake Maye ended up putting almost 300 on them lol. Bryce was stunned from the beginning to end. I know that's an easy comp for the Bryce truthers but no one else put up those puny QB stats against them all season long.
