Eagles receiving calls about Carson Wentz

I am not against trading for Wentz if the price is right. The rest of his contract would put him in the $25-26 million range for the remainder of his career and his salary is only guaranteed for 2021 and it looks like his 2022 salary is partially guaranteed on the 3rd day of the 2021 league year. So, if he is a bum he'd be relatively easy to cut. 

Pretty reminiscent of Cam in terms of positives and negatives. Ultra-high top end, major injury concerns and generally a polarizing QB to fans. You have to obviously be concerned with how bad he was this past season. Does he really just need a change of scenery or has he just lost "it." That's the thing about Cam, as bad as he got in the end, it was more about injuries than seeming to lose his command of the offense on the field. Wentz just didn't even look like he belonged in the league this past year. 

Super high risk, super high reward trade. Not sure I'd push a bunch of chips into the pot for that. Also not sure he fits what Rhule is supposedly looking for in players, either.

The thing about Wentz is that he never controlled the locker room. There are multiple articles out there stating that he played the game selfishly and wasn’t a team player. Tbh I don’t think he brings the leadership and poise to the locker room that you need from the position.

I rather have Wentz than Stafford. If the top 4 QBs are gone I wouldn’t mind going after Wentz. He’s only a year removed from carrying a horrible supporting cast to the playoffs 

Nah. Stafford is a much better QB and less injury prone. The top end of Wentz may be a little higher but Stafford has produced for years. Wentz hasn't.

    • You’re playing madden we’re talking real football stuff…. He does have you seen his special on internet he def thinks he’s getting paid 
    • Without the team having an identity kinda hard to predict what they value.  They either are really trying to build a balanced team, or preparing for another swing at qb if Bryce doesn’t pan out. Seems like we value the o line but the $ spent there has been underwhelming besides Lewis, you could say it’s because of injuries but still hasn’t been worth the investment. as already stated, the whole handling of Bryce young as a whole has been ass backwards, we spent the years we’re supposed to take advantage of having a qb with a lower cap hit, building the team up to be adequate. now It appears, key word appears, the saints have done it correctly, which is painful to even think about. Regardless, I hope the front office has paid attention to qb contracts recently, such as Tua, Kyler, Daniel jones(pre colts) and don’t settle for subpar qb play at franchise qb rates    
    • This is the flaw in your logic.  Cutting 3 of our best players will somehow move us from whatever we are to "compete". Even the most Young super fans are not predicting a ceiling above top 10-12, and that will not nearly cut it.  Someone will need to break the log jam of QBs getting nothing or North of 50. Our qb is at best a middle ground, lets hope it will be us that also manage to pay the worth at about 100 over 3 years.  And before you jump me, yes that is only of he improves.
