Wow, lose your HC, BR, MLB, and DT all in one year. Crabtree is a FA too. talk about some turnover.


Crabtree and Stevie Johnson will be gone.

Torrey smith expected to be signed.

And today is Aaron Lynch birthday!

If BR = RB then yes, that's big. Did they keep Aldon Smith or is now known as Alldone Smith?

Andre Johnson and Frank Gore are headed to the Indianapolis Colts instead of the Philadelphia Eagles, according to a report from Lance Zierlein of NFL.com. and are the favorites to sign trent cole

Great move for the Colts. Andre Johnson may be old, but I think he'll find his game again with a great QB in Luck.

This one is really hard to understand. Any Eagles fans care to share why they may have done this?

My guess is Bradford is going to be cashed in for picks? But who is going to give them a ton of value for an injury prone guy making $13 million in the last year of his deal?

I too imagine thats what they want to do but like you said, not sure why they feel they can get more for Bradford than Foles.

Because they have Sanchize. Well that and Hundley's name has been thrown around a few times.

That doesn't really answer the question, IMO. Bradford is more expensive and the least successful of the two. Why not just trade Foles for picks or drop Foles if thats what they intend to do with Bradford. Unless there is a GM who has expressed sincere interest in Bradford I fail to get this one.

The only way I get this trade is if Kelly intends on KEEPING Bradford. Maybe he thinks that he can give Bradford that special sauce people thought he possessed when he was drafted?

Bizarre move.

Agreed and bizarre doesn't even begin to explain it for me. Chip is on a role. Watch, he'll end up playing Sanchez and pay Bradford $13 million for one season of back up duties, lol. He must have some master plan because this seems like its going down the path of career suicide.
