They had a guy on CBS Sports Radio saying that part of the trade is Foles going back to Philly.

CHICAGO--GARRAPPOLO

COLTS -- WENTZ

NINERS--TRUBISKI

EAGLES--FOLES

Not sure how this plays out, but the result (if these are the teams) that makes the most sense in my mind.

DARK HORSE, MYSTERY PARTICIPANT:  Washington--If they did not want to be mentioned, it could suggest a division rival is involved.

The Philly peanuts want Stafford value but don’t realise they are on the Goff side of that equation

Are these trades you are suggesting or just offseason moves in general?

Destinations-the QB that seems to match the team best in my mind--no science or rumor involved--I can't help but wonder if WASHINGTON is not the third, mystery team.  Maybe a division rival is why they need a triangulation of trade partners....Again conspiracy theory and blind speculation.

It is said that the locker room loves and respects Hurts. That's big for a QB position to be seen as the leader.

Certainly--Foles is not a starter, but is the best backup in the NFL (along with Fitzmagic, I suppose)

Okay, I was just going to point out that Trubisky is actually a free agent.

Glad you did--it totally escaped my line of thought.   Regrouping.

I doubt the Panthers are interested in Wentz and that huge contract but who knows

I've seen that speculated in a couple of places.

It does make some sense.

[Mr. Scot]

Not that I buy it, but...

I only want him if we're also getting quality draft picks along with wertz. That contract is the worst one in the current NFL, did no one see what the Rams had to give up along Goff contract? Its wasnt for stafford.... let me check the details....

LOL at only 24 million in dead cap for 2022, listed as a "a out".

We can save $8M this coming season and $21M the next by making him a post-June 1st cut. Throwing good money after bad is never a good idea. That's what always got Hurney in trouble.

So if we cut him we gain 8 million this year? The way we have talked about him really seems like we don't even want him to groom a new QB. Do you think we cut him and how much would we gain for FA this offseason?
