Eagles and Colts reach deal on Wentz trade

[Mr. Scot]

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 is news of the actual trade.

(plus that thread got crazy long with a fair amount of side discussion)

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.

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

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

Either way, it's another quarterback domino falling.

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?

It means we probably have Teddy for another year. So yes, detrimental

And likely makes it harder for us to get one of the top quarterbacks.

I bet Wentz has a better year than Stafford

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