If we could trade Teddy for Wentz and we get a couple picks behind it that we can use to package up with #8 and move up, this is an absolute no brainer

We're not in a position to take on a $25m a year salary and eat the cap hit of trading Bridgewater.

We're struggling to resign Moton as it is.

Nope.

If we are going to roll the dice on a 28 year old mediocre QB, why trade for one when we already have that on the roster. 
 

Wentz, Jimmy G, Trubisky, Winston, Carr..... all are in the same boat for us. None move the needle anymore than Teddy.
 

Judging by our aggressiveness, it’s either moving up in the draft to get our QB on a rookie deal or emptying the cupboards for Watson.

How exactly is he a much better QB? Cause he puts up a ton of garbage time numbers? Or when he beats terrible teams?

Wentz has an inexcusably bad 2020 season, but outside of that he’s clearly better than Stafford. You put Stafford in that 2019 Eagles team and they don’t win 5 games much less make the playoffs.

I mean, I can't help you see talent and ability. Not within my powers. There is a reason we wanted him badly and many other teams inquired.

That is a confusing list of QB's to equate to Teddy. Bridgewater is a backup QB while some of those guys you mentioned are NFL starters.

Yep I see talent one guy has led his team to the playoffs numerous times while being an mvp favorite, the other guy not so much

I remember watching a game of his a couple years back and thinking "this guy is gonna be the best quarterback in the league".

Hasn't turned out that way since.

Same...I told a buddy of mine who is a Eagles fan...you guys got a good one...wish we had that!!  That was before his injury..and the rest has been history

      Monday practice tweets

      I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).

      Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.

      Austin named starting center

      By UnluckyforSome · Posted

      Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
