    I think Bradford's upside is much higher then Fitz or anyone we can draft. Get him for Mo and some picks and Gino and Petty fight it out for # 2. If this guys is healthy he could be the man. Has a gun. Take a shot. Fitz is never gonna win a super bowl

    How much are the Eagles paying him? I think the rent on that arm is prohibitive.

    I wouldn't want him even if he wasnt making 18 mil a year and we got to keep Mo.

    In an offseason full of horrible moves by the Philly GM , why would we give him a chance to redeem himself in a trade like this?

    All Bradford has going for himself is that he was a former 1st overall pick.

    What has Sam Bradford accomplished in this league other than making a lot of money

    well stated--why take a $35M 2 year salary for a guy who has been a huge underachiever? Rather have geno or petty if it comes to it.

    Sam Bradford $7,000,000
    $7,000,000 $5,500,000 $0 $0 $0 $12,500,000
    Cap number of 12.5 mill this year and 22 next year.

    How can that be afforded?

    Sure, let's trade assets for the pleasure of paying a below average QB 18M this season to end up on IR. In related news, no.

    The rams and the eagles both tried to see if Bradford could be their savior at qb and they both came to the conclusion that he isn't. They've also both now given up a kings ransom to move on to another potential savior at qb essentially putting an exclamation point on Bradford not being one.

    You think the jets are going to be the team to finally get the franchise qb version of Bradford?

    I have my doubts.

    Who is Gino? Did we sign another QB in addition to Geno and Bryce?

    If we did I'm not sure it's realistic to add Sam to Gino, Geno, and Bryce because Bradford just signed a contract last month and why would the Eagles want to burn all that money when he could start allowing Goff/Wentz to sit. Yes, Chase Daniel could do the same but that contract will be impossible to move.

    It's 7 according to a PFT article. It would be hard to hate the move given our QB situation, but at the same time I don't think it should generate a ton of optimism.

    Bradford is a mediocre QB who is drastically overpaid. Absolutely not. If we did this, we should be demanding our GM gets fired immediately.

    $11M of it is on the Eagles for the signing bonus, team that gets him is on the hook for $7M in 2016 and $17M in 2017 but can cut bait with a $4M dead money hit next year if he doesn't pan out.
