Barring an offer they can’t refuse, best to keep Foles through the return of Wentz. Then wait until a starter for a team with playoff hopes has its QB blow up his knee mid-season and then trade Foles for a first and fourth or second and third or whatever. Desperate teams make desperate moves.

The risk in waiting is that the Eagles stumble to 2-3 or something under Foles with the tougher schedule and he throws five picks in that time. Then, there went your bloom on the rose period for trading Foles for more than he’s worth.

And Wentz’s recovery isn’t guaranteed.

The rich get richer. Super Bowl Champs trade for all-Pro DE Michael Bennett, swapped a 5th & a nobody for Bennett & a 7th.

May spell the end for Vinny Curry or Chris Long now....

Barnett, Bennett, Cox, Graham

Not who I’d want to be staring at on 3rd and long.

Hopefully Bennett can be nearly as productive for a couple of more seasons. He’s long in the tooth, but still a nice upgrade over Curry, who is gone like yesterday with his huge cap hit in 2018.

Long has shown he doesn’t need a big paycheck, so I’d expect him back.

I agree Long likely to stay, Curry as good as gone, Beau Allen probably not back too.

It’ll be interesting to see if they can re-sign Bradham.

I have a feeling between Kendricks & Bradham that one may go. Probably one DB too - either Darby or Robinson.

Drafting a LB somewhere would work - they don't want to pay big money for that position - don't need as many of them on the field and the DL is where the real money and real impact is. You draft one who can play and pay him on the rookie scale and that alleviates the need to hold onto guys like Kendricks and Bradham.

The Bennett move is just fantastic. Makes a dominant d-line even better, at a lower cost. Howie certainly knows how to work the cap.

Eagles shed another $4M and change from their cap and get six years younger:

http://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/2270 ... ryl-worley

Smith was #4 on the receiving chart with 430 yards. Mack Hollins steps right into that role without issue.

Another good, albeit unspectacular, Roseman deal.

Plus it refills the depth at CB as Patrick Robinson won't be back (can be filled in by Sidney Jones, last year's possible best drafted CB, albeit with the Achilles injury). Howie doing what he needs to do. Paying for Smith would've been crazy considering the depth behind him.

word is the Vikings will open on Thursday night vs the Eagles, thus giving 2-3 days of extra news how the few Vikings fans in attendance were both mentally & physically abused in the parking lots & inside the stadium...

Heck, those snowflakes are probably being triggered right now on the news that they may have to come to Philly again. Cue the cute puppy videos! :rofl:

Man, that’s some cold shit by the NFL to make the Vikings watch the Eagles players get their rings. The ones they won in the Vikings’ house after destroying the Vikings in the NFCCG.

So we send Torrey Smith to Carolina, get a corner back, plus pickup Mike Wallace at half the price of Smith. Atta Boy Howie!!

Any doubts that Howie is a genius have disappeared now. For a team that was well over the cap coming into free agency to now have added Michael Bennett, Haloti Ngata, and Mike Wallace, picked up Daryl Warley in a trade, and resigned Nigel Bradham is just fantastic. Better on the defensive line than last year, better in the defensive backfield than last year (Sidney Jones now healthy), better at WR than last year (Wallace > Smith). Make sure we have the depth needed at TE and the Eagles are in pretty good shape.

They should draft that giant TE from SDSU. We could have a Dakota connection for TDs.

It would be weird having an Eagle named Dallas though.

Eh, the Philadelphia Wings goalie for years was Dallas Eliuk - it was a little weird, but he was awesome so that broke any connection people had with his name with regards to the city.
