Im not sure if this has any validity to it, but I believe I just heard on the radio that with this trade the teams are switching 1st round picks. Can anyone confirm or deny this??

Philly got a 2nd round pick and Bradford for Nick Foles

The Browns were one. RT @SI_PeterKing: There were other teams, multiple, involved in the chase for Bradford.

You are correct, I was under the impression that PHILLY got the 2016 2nd rounder.

somebodies loading up to make more trades........I was hoping for a Foles deal with the Browns, but now I got a gnawing feeling Bradford could be in our future...????......call me crazy.....

Bradford, #20 and that 2nd you just mentioned for #12.......????

That would be great for us, but wouldn't make sense for Philly. Then they'd be stuck at #12 with no way of moving up to #5 (or #2).

kelly laying the bait for all possibilities.

Don't try to analyze Chip Kelly. It just might be that he's nuts! His high octane offense is good enough to beat sub par teams. But when faced with a formidable opponent like the Packers or Seahawks the defense runs out of gas by the third quarter. And now he trades Foles who was making nothing for a guy making 13 million and won't last through the pre-season. I sure hope Farmer and friends don't get sucked into the insanity.

I'm going to watch this closely .., but for now, I'm thinking this is a bad trade for the Eagles and in my opinion, maybe one of the worst trades in recent NFL history. Boy, am I glad Browns don't have Chip K.

I have a feeling this opinion will change.

I don't know what the fucking deal with that trade was.

I'd take Foles over Bradford anyday on top of the fact he has a massive contract and they gave up a 2016 2nd rounder.

The Browns were wanting Sam Bradford.

I hope to god we don't get duped into a trade for him

CBS Sports projects the Titans will draft Leonard Williams and stand pat with Mettenberger and Whitehurst. Chip Kelly would then move up to the three spot with a trade with the Jaguars. Which doesn't explain the Sam Bradford acquisition. After two ACL tears in a row I wouldn't want this guy if he was free. Well maybe if he was free. So I think the Browns are safe on draft day unless Chip is going to use Bradford to get Kevin White or Davante Parker. Sure hope the Browns take their phone off the hook. Eagles had one of the worst secondaries last year and have just said goodbye to all their playmakers. So obviously they now need a wide receiver and a running back. I just hope they leave us alone.

kelly is casting out all the bait in a pre-draft coup.

pleez browns don't eat the chum.

Maybe somebody wants Bradford enough to trade a number one. If that happens Philadelphia gets their second rounder back.

More trade bait. I can't imagine taking the risk of running Kelly's offense with the injury prone Bradford.

"Free agent quarterback Mark Sanchez is going back to the Philadelphia Eagles on a two-year deal with a maximum value of $16 million, $5.5 million of which is guaranteed, a source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter on Sunday."

I can't see how they would be doing this to move up for Mariota with Sanchez and Bradford on the team. Bradford is scheduled to make 12 mil this coming season. This trade is a head scratcher.

LogicIsForSquares

They have to plan on moving Bradford on draft day. Otherwise, the trade makes zero sense.

miktoxic

chip kelly is either going tocome out of this looking like a genious or being the biggest flop coach/GM since ditka in NO.

so far he's got 2 years under his belt with nothing to show for it and he just depleted his eagles of the best talent they had for band-aid retreads with no warranty.

that fan base must be screaming right now.

Agree on the last part, but if someone were willing to trade a #1, I'd think the Rams would have known that.

EDIT: One thing that I think gets lost about Bradford is that in his two full years, he was a very average QB. Just reading an article that described him as, "Bradford — a guy who’s always almost there. 'This' has been his year since 2011."

Chip Kelly says a team offered a 1st round pick for Sam Bradford this morning....

Wonder if it was Browns ?
