Did you actually watch the game? Because you’re using his stat line which if you didn’t watch the game “isn’t that good” on paper. And then you’re backing it up with an argument of likelihood and chance. It’s fine to say he may not be the guy, but to say 99% sure he isn’t but with no real reasoning why just makes it sound like you don’t want him to be the guy.

Hawks shoulda done that deal.

Good lord. I thought Trent was bordering on washed 2 years ago. I wonder how flexible that contract is, cause if they’re really locked into him for 4 years or more, yikes. but yeah, it was always about the money. Like everyone on here said. I don’t blame him for that, but the way he did it was very scuzzy.

Man, I’m so sour on Darnold that as much as I don’t want wentz AT ALL, seems kind of exciting by comparison haha

One of their bloggers was suggesting a 1st and Cam Sims. Like, come on man.

Seriously. Wishful Jets fan. I mean it makes no sense. Wentz is injured garbage but at least you’ve seen potential there. Darnold’s career to date, and his contract situation make zero sense for anyone to give up anything more than a late round flier. It really doesn’t make sense to give up anything at all. Wait a year. They’re not paying him 25 mil.

I feel like im taking crazy pills- I thought the general consensus on Darnold is backup at best, if even still in the league in a few years. Has he had even one “wow” type play in his career outside of that one MNF a couple years ago? He hasn’t even shown flashes. What am I missing? are we really that desperate? Or is this a case of “we’re gonna link every qb to wft cause we have no idea”?

Funny enough, going through Twitter and reading reactions, eagles fans are pissed, even IF they got 2 1sts. Overwhelmingly pissed. They think he’s the franchise. Still don’t want him.

Read this "article" https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/30847722/philadelphia-eagles-expected-trade-qb-carson-wentz-soon-sources-say?platform=amp You can't tell me Howie Roseman didn't write this. Check out this line: There have been whispers over the years that Wentz has struggled at times with his ability to forge relationships across the locker room, but others believe that could have been a natural byproduct of him and the team not living up to the lofty expectations that followed the 2017 season. By many public accounts, Wentz has handled himself with class throughout his time in Philadelphia and has received public support from many of the team's leaders over the years, including most recently Fletcher Cox and Jason Kelce. GTFOH. This is an Eagles Press Release. Right. And yet somehow that's not being factored in either. Dude is injury prone as injury prone gets. As if you need another reason to not trade for him.

You're being kind. It was a pretty damning article. His teammates hate him, his coaches hate him, the FO hates him. He's the most expensive mistake that franchise has probably made. I wouldnt sign him to a vet min in FA, let alone give up 1 draft pick. Insanity, and like the Carr thing (2 1sts minimum), this stinks of being leaked by the Eagles to create a market.

100% Agreed. Even if you believe he could regain his confidence (I don't), his cap hit is a nightmare, and the Eagles are desperate to get out of it. I wouldnt give anything for him. But they know better than i. However, if it's 2 1sts, yeah I'm out on WFT. now this is an idea I can get behind. Though I think the expectation is he won't be available. Though as others have speculated, they have to win now and they don't know what they're doing. I could def see a monster trade for Watson, though man would they catch **** for that.

I like Cam the person. I think he’s a good dude. You’d hear stories all the time in Charlotte about good deeds he did when no one was looking. That’s character. I think he’d be great in that roll, but does our offense utilize that role often enough to carry 3 qbs?

I watched a little of Cam, and saw him a bunch his last couple seasons in Car. He was washed 3 seasons ago. He’s horrible. Would rather roll with Smith.

^ nailed it. They’re not getting 2 1sts. The only team who would trade 2 1sts for the 15th or so ranked qb is in fact, the raiders.

I don’t really watch a lot of big ten football, but once it became clear we were eyeing him I started paying attention over the last 6 or so games. I never saw really any game changing plays. Like, at all. And after every game I would come on here where people would defend it by saying he was getting triple teamed (he was) and that he was being used to free up the other guys who were making impacts because of him (I guess?). But the point is, outside of his highlight real, I never saw the direct impact to the game type play. I still haven’t. I chalked it up to my understanding of football being less than some of you all on here, that you all were seeing something I wasn’t. But now I’m not so sure. However, it’s way way too early to be too concerned. Still, give me a highlight game busting type play this year. Something. The same type of thing we were looking for with Haskins. Give me a sense of hope and patience.
