Eagles receiving calls about Carson Wentz

[countryboi]

its amazing how bad he is now, the first time i watched him play he looked like mahomes. I dont know if he can ever get close to that level but the is paid like he elite and he is just not right now.

Carolina Panthers

cap space: $16 million

2021 draft positioning: Carolina has the eighth and 39th overall picks

Analysis: The Panthers reportedly offered their first-round pick-plus for Matthew Stafford. That doesn't mean they'll do the same for Wentz, but it's at least evidence they're being aggressive in pursuit of a new signal-caller. The pairing of Wentz and up-and-coming offensive coordinator Joe Brady, who interviewed for the Eagles' head-coaching job a couple weeks back, could be an interesting melding of the minds. Teddy Bridgewater remains under contract in Carolina and is scheduled to make $17 million this season

I like wentz reminds me of a slower cam Newton but better as a passer . But I’m not willing to give anything more then a 2nd round for him and that’s being generous

Let me wrap my head around this one...

Trading for an injury plagued former MVP caliber QB a year after cutting an injury plagued ACTUAL MVP QB? Good grief, this would be the very definition of NFL desperation.

Dude has a SB ring and $78m (before tax) in his bank account. He's doing fine.

I’m sure he loves wearing that ring and thinking about how daddy Foles won it for him. That would eat my soul if I thought I was a MVP caliber QB

[BrizzMachete]

Our dumbass on the phone right now ready to offer up the number 8 pick lol  we can’t preach rebuild and then be this desperate after one year 

[BurnNChinn]

Don’t worry it’s not us, it’s colts. I mean he has been linked there for awhile. I think we are Watson or move up for an.

Some team will think they can fix Wentz. 

Right or wrong, nobody in the league thinks they can fix Cam, hence the reason he signed for almost nothing last year.

 

[amcoolio]

I'm not sure he is any better than Bridgewater TBH

[Mr. Scot]

Let's clarify one thing while we're having this discussion...

"In on every deal" doesn't mean we're going to make an offer on every single player that comes available. It just means we're going to check in on all of them.

If we think they have value, we'll evaluate it. If we evaluate and think "not worth it" we'll do nothing. If we see something we like though, we'll make an offer.

And don't get too hung up on  "aggressive" either. Just because we say we're "aggressive" doesn't mean we'll overspend.

Right now I'd say that team might be the Eagles. They hired Nick Sirianni on part because he was connected to Frank Reich.

But if not the Eagles, then possibly Reich himself.

I just don't see it.  The upside on Wentz is when he is good, he is very good.  He could lead a team to a Super Bowl.  But when he is bad, he doesn't deserve to be on the field.  He could lead the same team to a top 10 draft choice, as well. 

I've seen him mentioned most realistically with the Colts, Broncos, and even the Pats.  But they seem to be mentioned with any veteran QB who becomes available.

As comparing him to Stafford, until this year, it would be hard to say the trains they were each engineering had the same horsepower.  The Eagles roster has been consistently better than Detroit's.  If I had to take one of them, I'd take Stafford.  While his upside is probably not as high, his downside has not been as low, and his norm is slightly higher, IMO, and he has been more consistently near that norm.  I'm not even sure we have ever seen Wentz's "norm."

If they fire Pederson and then turn around and trade Wentz...unless it’s for a top 10 pick they just need to blow up that front office.

I already hate our new GM and he hasn't done anything!

j/k

But Lance at 8 and sit him. It seems so easy.
