Hypothetical Bridgewater Trade

[AndrewLaskoski]

After watching the Eagles win yesterday, I'd say it's more than likely that Jalen Hurts becomes the long term QB for the Philadelphia Eagles. That leaves them in a precarious situation with Carson Wentz, to whom the Eagles backed up the Brinks truck for. A thought came across my head after the game.  

Should the Panthers not take a QB in this upcoming draft (for whatever reason) and if Wentz was willing to restructure his contract (to Bridgewater salary levels) would you trade Teddy Bridgewater for Carson Wentz straight up? 

Philly gets a mentor that can work with Hurts on the finer parts of the game while the Panthers get a former MVP candidate reclamation project. Is Penei Sewell + Wentz better than a choice of Wilson/Lance/Trask? I don't know but it's an interesting thought.

Thought I might share a potential alternative solution for replacing Teddy besides drafting Wilson/Lance/Trask. 

Thoughts?

No.

Not in real life and not in Madden.

I'd trade Bridgewater for Jalen Hurts jock strap.

Whatever your drinking put it down.....

I don't think there is any amount of restructuring of Wentz's contract that would make the numbers pan out.  That is one contract that I think makes Hurney jealous. 

So, it would have to be a Philly release and FA signing.  That isn't going to happen because the dead cap he would carry for the Eagles would be approaching 1/3 of the salary cap next year, more if the worst case cap were to become reality.

Then add the fact that he has looked bad at almost any salary.

The Bridgewater flu lol

Teddy is untradeable unless another Carolina Panthers team exists somewhere.

My thread is going to be titled, "Why we should run the Notre Dame Box"  I hope everyone gets the logic.

I think we would have to give up picks to the team acquiring TB....lol

I don't want to watch Teddy anymore either, but there's no reason to trade him for a worse contract.

We'll be essentially free of his contract after next season.

Wentz isn't the answer for the Eagles and he's not the answer for us either.

I think Philly found their answer yesterday. Fortunately, it was at the expense of the Saints, which makes me happy.

Who in the hell would trade for Teddy? Why would the Eagles trade for Teddy when Hurts already looks better?

Who in the hell would trade for Wentz? Have you seen him play this year? Have you seen his contract?

Nothing about any of this makes any sense.

Not a bad idea to explore.  Philly would bear the brunt of the signing bonus stuff, which makes it not probable.

 

I mentioned it a week ago, as Carson is loved by teammates and they think it is not his fault for their bad play.  Sometimes a change of scenery is good for all involved.
