Would you make this trade for Foles?
-
I think I would rather keep our picks and sign Jack Locker.
If everybody had like minds, we would never learn. -
Foles is overrated. Trade Brian Hoyer and a Third to New England for Jimmy Garrapolo.

NE has had Hoyer before (and are aware of his limitations) and they drafted JG for their future. No way they make that trade. Besides if we don't resign Hoyer, they can pick him up for a song and a dance if they wanted him.
I'm still in the build the lines first mode of thinking. Pay Hoyer enough to return. If he insists JM has to go in order to return, then the Browns have a decision to make.

If Jake could stay healthy, he'd be a viable option.
For me Josh McCown's release changes everything. Wait to get him without his contract and I think we have our bridge QB... just hopefully not a bridge to nowhere.

Plus there's that whole, he's not ours to trade thing...
But please do not tell me that you still are holding onto any credence for that old, dead, "only if JM goes" thing.

OK, I willl go along with that.
Of the Class of 2011....a couple have done well: Newton, Kaepernick, Dalton.
Others are considered somewhat failures: Locker, Gabbert Ponder
One is considered a potential: Mallet.
Of the "failures" I would most likely think that Locker has the potential to recover....so I would most be willing to go for him. Then there is Mallet.
Is he also not a FA?

Everybody is infatuated with Mallet's size and "potential" that they fail to see the one glaring problem...he's not really that good.

Well, he was pretty good when he kicked the Browns ass last year. I think that is somewhat the point....no one knows how good he really can be.
You may be right....you may be wrong......but he did kinda KirkCousined us.

in comparison the steelers are putting another year in a rusting out 90s IROC w/the glass t-roofs leaking and a fat drunk jimmy stewart at the wheel.
uh oh. better get maaco.

216 Blake Sims QB 8 Alabama rSr
237 Connor HallidayInjured QB 9 Washington State
245 Tyler Heinicke QB 10 Old Dominion
259 Cody Fajardo QB 11 Nevada rSr

If our measuring stick is "quarterbacks who have looked good against us", then we have a lot to choose from.
I think Byron Leftwich may be available.
I'm awesome, and I fuck dolphins. Ghoolie 12/2/2012: I have absolutely no skills, training or pride -

So the Eagles give up:
Foles
2015 second round pick (estimated value 380)
2106 1st rd pick (estimated value 850)
The Browns give up:
this years #12 pick (value 1200)
Boy....would I like to play poker with you! That trade adds up pretty close without Foles in it, so they are throwing Foles in as a give away?
Besides, putting a true franchise QB on the Browns right now (that trades indicates that Foles is only average at best) would be like putting a Formula 1 engine in a Chevy Lumina with a missing drive train and suspension....but a nice paint job (the defense)
All this team need is a true franchise QB.
Any other shit does NOT matter.
The Browns would be a better team than the Steelers....except for the franchise QB. (given everyone being healthy).

Yea, absolutely. Think of all the one hit wonders whose best day was against the Browns: Akili Smith, Kirk Cousins, Ryan Mallet.
Who else?

Future picks are discounted. Estimates vary but 25% for a year is a minimum. That would make Foles worth around 200 points or a mid-third round pick.
The discount on our deal with the Bills last year was over 50%.
And that's for one year... not 91.

Is one of them Lovelocke?
