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

      Penn is hanging with Illinois. They've got to rebound better off all these threes Illinois is jacking up. If they do better on the boards in the second half they'll have a chance late.

      Trade: Panthers are trading veteran QB Andy Dalton to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for a 2027 seventh-round pick, per sources.

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      Dalton is ancient by NFL standards. Howell is only 25.  Howell's only year as a starter he put up almost 4k yards, 21/21 with a 43.2 QBR while being sacked 65 times.  This past year and the 3rd starting, which many would consider to be Bryce's best, he barely put up 3k yards 23/11 with a QBR of 47.6 while being sacked 27 times.  Pickett 4 years in the league, with 27 starts, he's amassed 4900 yards, 16/16 with a 53.6 QBR.  Now if Bryce were injured for a season, which QB would you say has more potential to step in and run an offense? I'd say Howell only because in a single season he threw for 1k yards less, more tds and granted more ints in 11 less games as a starter than Pickett's whole career.  Everyone is saying Pickett sucks, Howell sucks, but what I'm seeing is Bryce is right on par with them. Howell is on his 5th team, so is KP, yet Bryce just got a 5th year extension putting up pretty much similar numbers. The bar for QB on this organization is really low.  Did I want Howell? I didn't care. I wanted someone, anyone, who can potentially be better than what we've had the past 3 years or who we signed as a backup. We do not have even a mid tier NFL QB on the roster right now.  If Howell was brought in as camp fodder and didn't make the cut, wouldn't hurt my feelings at all. If we bring in another QB via the draft, I hope it's someone who could have the potential to be a starting QB with some development because that's the whole point.  We can't be afraid to bring in anyone who might have the potential to unseat Bryce or take his job if he's injured. The goal is to get winning seasons and make SB runs with hopefully a victory or 2. Pickett doesn't accomplish that. Dalton hasn't been able to even be in consideration for that role in over 2 years.
