Nick Foles, Mike Glennon

Two guys with somewhat parallel paths last season.

 

Both were drafted in the third round (Foles in 2012, Glennon in 2013). Neither was expected to be a starter so early in their careers, but both became starters and saw a measure of success.  And at least for the moment, both seem likely to be the opening day starters on their respective teams next season.

 

The question: How good are these guys really?

 

Was their success legit?  Was it based in their teams' systems?  Was it just that they were unknown?  What's your take?

Foles' success was legit. Not sure if Glennon ever showed any success.

he showed promise though, and on that team last year is almost equivalent to success.  i say get him a TE like Ebron or if Amaro or Jenkins falls to their pick in the second, with Martin back, they should be pretty tough.

We can't let that happen. We need to take one of the three out of the equation at #28.

foles is good, but a lot has to do with the system.

 

glennon is ok but not much more than you saw last year.

 

both guys will see a regression next year, probably glennon more than foles.

 

i don't see either guy losing their jobs any time soon.

      Maxx Crosby is not happy

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      I don't necessarily think he will be moved, I would currently be leaning against that notion. I think a lot will depend on the coaching situation. Carroll certainly can't be thinking about wanting to go through a serious strip down and overhaul, so the longer he plans to remain, the less likely I think Crosby gets moved.

      Smitty on TMac

      I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches.

      Give Legette another season?

      At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.
