Eagles and Colts reach deal on Wentz trade

Per Adam Schefter...

Didn't even get a firm first rounder out of it. Instead, a third rounder this year and a conditional second round that could become a first.

Albert Breer said yesterday he had a feeling the trade was going to happen this week. I forget who but I saw someone say this morning that the Bears had dropped their offer so there was basically no competition anymore it was the Colts or nobody.

This increases the need for the Panthers to trade up in this year’s draft. I think Philadelphia will draft a QB. Hurts is not the answer.

Even if they don't, they could trade the pick to someone who does.

Either way, it's another quarterback domino falling.

Philly will go QB in the draft it seems. We need to be aggressive in the Watson deal or the draft. Staying at 8 at this point is detrimental 

I agree. The people in front of us will draft QB or trade their pick to someone else that will. Too many QB hungry teams in a climate that is increasingly desperate for an immediate splash and immediate success.

But we got one more morale win, I understand the coach / player perspective on ''winning'' meaningless games. Personally I think they just wanted to beat Ron, as we clearly sat it down the rest of the way IMO. 

I think they were already prepared to do what is needed to bring in a different QB via trade / draft day (trading up if necessary). 

My question is what does this do to PHI's cap considering the guaranteed money?

From what I can tell, dead cap hit this year of right at 34M.

    • At the moment? Absolutely not. Maybe if they drop the next three in a row and go into the deadline at 3-6 I can see an argument to be made to move Rico as he's on a 1yr deal. I'd rather keep Chuba's contract though and roll with ETN + JB next season. The team will have plenty of time to see how JB is looking going into the offseason a year-plus after his surgery to know whether or not they need to plan for another direction.
    • I forgot to mention my thoughts on the rushing grade! 😮 He ran his ass off both weeks. I can't remember the stat offhand but didn't he have something crazy like 120+ yards after contact vs. Dallas? Against Miami he had lanes as wide as the entirety of I-95 to run through which is why his rushing grade wasn't as high as this week's. He's ran like a man possessed and going to earn himself some money in the offseason.
    • I'm not sure how much I'm changing mid year, especially when we are seeing some success.    Most Pass Rushers are physically gifted. Scheme and personnel help, but you gotta have the Jimmys and Joes, especially at that position.    We will likely lose games when the other team can throw for 400 yards, and has multiple high level receivers, but I think at this point in the development of our franchise, we have to be ok with that. You can't address every single issue at once. Really looks like we have plugged some holes on offense, and definitely in run defense. In the next draft, if we hit on a CB, an ILB and a Pass rusher, we will be pretty dangerous.
