treeduck Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Is it me or did Chip Kelly go bonkers today and allowed the Eagles to be fleeced in a totally dumb trade? The Eagles have announced the deal, which consists of Bradford for Nick Foles plus three draft picks. The Eagles get from St. Louis a 2015 fifth-round pick, and the Rams get from Philadelphia a 2015 fourth-round pick and a 2016 second-round pick.

Too much for a QB with two zipper knees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too much for a QB with two zipper knees.Sounds like the perfect guy for an offense which requires at least some mobility for their QB. Even the picks favor the Rams by a considerable margin. That's an insane trade. Did Stephen Ross put him up to it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We lose Murray but work out a deal to get Peterson. A win. We get neither and must draft a running back in the first or second round. Major question mark.

All the elements for a successful running game are in place already. As a Cowgirl hater, I hope you get AP...he's got not much more in the tank than Jamal Lewis when he sat out a year. It might be somewhat disguised because your OL is so good, but there are a lot of cheaper backs just as good who will cost less and be productive longer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Though he is injury prone, he's still an elite back. I do agree that we shouldn't break the bank for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On video, not so much if the rumors about Trent are true.Trent Richardson: “My next step, I’ll be the starter” Posted by Michael David Smith on March 12, 2015, 6:50 PM EDTHours after he was released by the Colts, Trent Richardson insisted that he has plenty of good football left in him. Richardson told Mike Wells of ESPN that Colts General Manager Ryan Grigson is to blame for Richardson’s inability to make things work in Indianapolis. “Me and the GM didn’t see eye to eye. My next step, I’ll be the starter. Indy didn’t fit me,” Richardson said. Richardson acknowledged that he was fined repeatedly for being overweight, although he says he was only three pounds heavier than the 227 pounds the Colts asked him to weigh. “I was continually fined for being 230 pounds,” Richardson said. That raises the question of why Richardson didn’t just lose the extra three pounds to keep his bosses happy and keep his money. And Richardson’s attitude raises questions about whether he understands just how bad he was in Indianapolis. The reality is that there’s no way any team is going to bring Richardson in to be the starter, and if he signs for backup money somewhere else, he’s going to have to prove himself in minicamps, training camp and the preseason or else he’s not going to make a team at all. Unless Richardson is planning to play Arena Football, his chances of being a starter are slim. And he may not play another down in the NFL.

I know I sound like a tool. ;) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
