Should The Eagles Consider Trading Pick #13?

HowieRoseman1The NFL draft is still three months away, which provides plenty of time for breaking down prospects.

Quarterback and offensive lead the way in mock drafts with what position the Eagles may select at pick #13. The overall consensus with the draft by the experts has been mixed. I’m hearing this draft classified as good depth at both the offensive and defensive line, with scattered talent at the other position groups.

In my opinion, I think the Eagles could really help their offensive line beyond the prospects slated to go by the end of the first round. I’m not in love with the quarterback class, but between Pederson, Reich and DeFilippo, there is a lot of strong quarterback knowledge, if they see a guy, I’m left to welcome them with open arms.

I like the offensive tackles slated in that tier two group with Decker (OSU) and Conklin (MSU), but I don’t expect either to reach the status that current Eagle Lane Johnson has the potential to reach. I think both guys play with grit, and will excel at the technical part of the game, but neither has the athleticism that I feel offensive tackles need to have in the current NFL.

What if the Eagles recognize this may not be the best year to draft the franchise quarterback. What if they identify offensive lineman in rounds 2-5 with similar grades as the tackles available at pick #13?

Would trading to the back end or even completely out of round one be a direction the Eagles elect to go?

I know there are value charts for what the Eagles should receive as compensation for trading out of round one. This is not an area that I can predict, there have been some blockbuster deals throughout the years, but I would imagine a 2nd and 4th rounder this year would be the starting point of the conversation with the other team.

I get that waiting until day two before the Eagles finally make their first selection is going to feel like it took forever, trust me, I watch the entire draft.

At the same time, I recognize how important this draft is for the Eagles. They need to make the right call in the early rounds in addition to being one of the few teams who finds that hidden gem in day three.

I think trading out of their current spot at #13 if the return price is worth it should be considered by the Eagles with the number of positions that need to be upgraded.

There is a really good chance the top QBs will be gone by the time we draft at 13. I agree that the best course of action would be to trade back and pick up an addition pick(s). If we are willing to drop back to the 22 range, we should be able to recoup the 2nd we gave for Bradford and still draft a top OT or Cody Whitehair. Then with the acquired 2nd , the two 3rds and a 4th, we should be able to address DL, G, S or a 2nd tier QB to be groomed. Of Course the key might be in resigning Bradford so we don’t have to reach for a QB who isn’t ready to play or a career backup who will inevitably play like a career backup.

I don;t know if this is funny or sad….but last April, before the draft I wrote this:

“Though I do agree that the Eagles need to come out of the draft with 2 OL (at least – more like 3) because there is a major hole there right now, and 2 holes opening up next year. Obviously they need a WR. There’s one good one on the roster. One with potential, and 2 scrubs. And of course, there are still open roster positions at S and CB. I also do not see how they can’t come out of the draft without a QB. Bradford is a giant question mark and Sanchez is a piece of shit. How can they not take a QB?
3 ol, 1 qb, 1wr, 2 S, 1 CB….all need picks”

Why is this funny/sad??

Because its pretty much the exact same thing this year!!!!!!!!!! only difference is you can swap out the need at CB for OT.

I mean seriously…pre-draft last year the Eagles had absolute glaring needs at both guard spots and QB….and their year its the exact same thing!!

If Goff and Wenz are gone at 13 then trading down to recoup the stupidly lost 2nd round pick is absolutely the way to go and one I am sure Roseman will consider. He’s never shown he is afraid to make a draft day trade.

I am hopeful they have suitors for Bradford..It’s a big IF ,but if they had suitors when he was a ram ,why after standing upright in a chip Kelly schemed offense ,wouldn’t someone feel he’s less risky now ? I’m hoping we can tag him ,convince his suitor to ,renegotiate a marketable deal and trade him.cutting bait with him and receiving zero compensation ,or even retaining him ,are not in my estimation ,plan Bs..If ,we can enable a suitor to renegotiate from strength ,and pick up assets ,that to me would be a perfect scenario..

The Eagles simply don’t Tag Players.. They don’t believe it makes financial sense in doing so and goes agoing Luries/Roseman’s Philiosophy. If they can’t reach a long term deal beforehand, then they move on as they are paying a Premium for a 1 Year Rental Player.. They and many other Teams just don’t believe in this strategy in this day and age..

Yes, the Eagles should consider Trading Back from #13 to obtain more Draft Picks .. The Key will be what happens during Free-Agency and what the Eagles about the QB Position as well as what some other Teams do about their QB Situations..
Right now there are 4 Top QB’s who likely have 1st Round Grades (Goff, Wentz, Lynch & Cook) and chances are only 2 of these 4 will be actuall ready to make the leap to Starter Status for their Rookie Season

Teams that have Starting QB questions for 2016
Browns (#2), Eagles (#13) , Rams (#15), Jets (#20) Texans (#22) & Broncos (#30 or #31) since the Patriots have no 1st Round Selection due to Deflategate.

There will be QB’s out in Free-Agency or that can be released
Sam Bradford, Brock Osweiler, Ryan Fitzpatrick,Chase Daniels, Matt Moore, Ryan Mallet, Mike Glennon, Kellen Clement, Josh Freeman, then we have QB’s like RG3, Geno Smith, EJ Manuel, Johnny Football, Peyton Manning & Nick Foles, that could be traded or released for Cap Reasons, losing their Starters Status, etc, etc..

Teams who will need to address their QB Situation sometime in this Off-Season or Draft Due to having aging expensive current QB’s to groom for the Future
The Cowboys, Chargers, Bears & Saints

I called for a Trade back to the Texans
Eagles Send #13 for the Texans for their 1st ( #22) & 2nd (#55) and maybe even a 5th Rounder or a future 2017 Mid-Round Pick
To move up from #22 to the Top Half of the Draft and ahead he other Teams needing QB’s (Rams/Jets) shouldReturn this much

In a ironic move
The Rams could offer their #15 & their own 2nd Round Pick (#47) since they already have the Eagles 2nd Rounder (#45) in the Bradford/Foles Deal

There’s a lot that will occur in Free-Agency first so we will have to see how it plays out, obviously the Jets Re-Sign Fitzpatrick and the Texans Sign Sam Bradford or trade for RG3 then these Teams would not be in the QB Market for their Top Pick meaning a good chance that either Wentz or Lynch will be onthe Board at #13

I have been going to Eagle games since 1958 and I fear if we do what you guys want we will be returning to an era when we were lucky to win 3 games. Year after year waiting for that high draft choice to develop or hoping that the other guy’s backup QB will becomes YATitle. I want to hope that a healthy Bradford has a better chance to develop into a Carson Palmer or Steve Young (former #1 picks who failed with their first team but after a few years led their next team to championship games).

” I want to hope that a healthy Bradford has a better chance to develop into a Carson Palmer”

Jeeeeezus. NO YOU DO NOT. Palmer stinks. Palmer is a big game loser. Palmer is one of those guys that the fanbase has to talk them selves into every year (“this time it will be different”) when deep down everyone and their dog knows there’s no chance.

Please go re-watch the last 2 Arizona playoff games and then never speak of Carson Bradford or Sam Palmer ever again.

Hope he turns into Palmer – Jeez man.

As for “hope he turns into Steve Young???? Give me a break. Yooneonlyung was traded after his 2nd year and had really one season as a starter in TB.

His first year in SF (in a backup role) he went 2-1 with….wait for it….10 tds and 0 ints. Over the next 4 years in a backup role he went 12-8 with 40tds and 14ints.

I mean for Lord’s sakes they’re not even in the same universe.

Again…go re-watch Arizona’s last 2 playoff games and understand why no one wants a 32 yr old Sam Palmer shoulder slumping his way through his first playoff game.

Sam Bradford is nothing. Nada. Nien. He’s just…..he’s NOTHING man.

19 GD TDs this year…..4 them (at least) in pure blowout loss garbage time and people still pining for the guy.

Its frikkin’ delusional.

You are foolishly delusional, Vinnie

EARTH to Vinny and the rest of the Bradford Bashers

QUARTERBACKS DONT GROW ON TREES

Carson Palmer is a very good Quarterback who was beaten by a very good defense in Carolina…he made plays in the Green Bay game to get them to Carolina!

You are a consistent fool Vinnie…you bash good QB’s like Carson Palmer, Cam Newton, and Russell Wilson while praising bum asses losers like Nick Foles and Kevin Kolb!

Now you want to the Eagles to commit suicide and use a high round draft pick on these second rate QB’s

The Eagles would be completely foolish to get rid of Sam Bradford, who by the way ‘statman’ had the highest completion percentage in Eagles history in a year when his receivers led the league in drop passes

Bradford ranks fourth overall in PFF’s “Quarterback Accuracy Percentage”, which accounts for “accounts for dropped passes, throw aways, spiked balls, batted passes, and passes where the quarterback was hit while they threw the ball.” (From Bleeding Green Nation)
Most drops, poor offensive line play, terrible defense and yet as we saw after the bye week he was incredibly efficient, accurate, and played very well!

QUARTERBACKS DONT GROW ON TREES!!

You dont move on from a QB unless you are certain of a few facts:

1. The Quarterback you are getting is significantly better
Sanchez, Daniels, RG3, and maybe Nick Foles…which of these QB’s would constitute an upgrade from Bradford?
Answer: NONE
2. You are drafting a young, highly rated QB with a high enough upside and the reasonable expectation that he can be a franchise QB.
NONE of the QB’s in this draft are rated as high as Winston or Mariotta last year and there were plenty of questions from many of you on those QB’s…yet you foolishly want the Eagles to spend a high draft pick on Wentz or Goff…
Utterly Ridiculous! I cant believe the delusion and pure foolishness of so many on this board….smh!!

DO you like Bleeding green nation? Is that a credible source in your eyes? I see you enjoy quoting that site……..

But why did you leave out…..

“With that said, the quarterback still needs to be held accountable for his performance. There are plenty of examples when Bradford struggled independent of the situation around him. He majorly struggled with accuracy and ball placement at times.”

“Some of his passes in the Saints game and the first Giants game were downright atrocious.”

“Bradford’s stats aren’t great. He ranks 11th in completion percentage, 25th in yards per attempt, tied for 33rd in TD/INT ratio, and tied for 26th in passer rating. Most advanced metrics do him no favors, either. Bradford ranks 34th by ESPN’s QBR stat. ”

” Football Outsiders has him at 24th in their DVOA and DYAR metrics. ”

“Pro Football Focus is more positive on Bradford. He’s their 12th best rated quarterback from the 2015 season. But when a PFF grade is the best thing you can point to about a player, that’s not very encouraging.”

“A lot is made how well Bradford played down the stretch…….. Jimmy Kempski of PhillyVoice points out that Bradford’s good stretch is basically comparable to how Brandon Weeden (!) performed in 2015. That’s not a good thing.”

“Some will insist Bradford was doomed to failure because of the offensive line. For as much as Eagles blockers struggled in 2015, there were 20 more quarterbacks who faced a higher percent of pressure on their dropbacks. Football Outsiders indicates the Eagles were tied for the 19th best pass protection. That’s obviously below average, but it’s not insurmountable. Excuses being made for Bradford can only go so far.”

“Speaking of excuses, let’s talk more about the drops. I already took a look at Bradford’s stats would look like without ANY drops. Obviously that’s unrealistic. Drops are part of the game. And while Bradford had the highest percentage of drops, he did not have the most number of drops. Tom Brady and Derek Carr both had 44, which is two more than Bradford had. They both played significantly better than Bradford. Brady threw for 36 touchdowns to seven interceptions and had the fourth best passer rating in the league. Carr had 32 touchdowns to 13 interceptions and the 19th best passer rating.”

(should we now mention Carr is in his 2nd season?)

“He seems to be average at best. He’s not going to elevate the team around him. ”

I just figure if you going to stand on your soapbox quoting from Bleeding Green Nation you might want a few more lines to choose from.

LOL

Sam Cutler. Brandon Bradford.

Your love for Jay Bradford is pathetic.

Vinniedafool…the stats speak for themselves they are clear and easy to understand:

“In the second half, Bradford flourished with 10 touchdown passes and just four interceptions while completing 68 percent of his passes.” CSNPhilly

We all knew that coming back from 2 ACL’s without a full preseason AND in a new offense that he would struggle a bit…despite all of the challenges, the lack of a running game, a poor offensive line….Sam Bradford played very well.

“he was the fourth most accurate Quarterback in this league despite a surplus of 43 drops” PhillySportsNetwork

The reality is simple…Sam Bradford is the best available QB..as desperate as you are to jump on the Carson Wentz bandwagon..some are telling us that he is much like Nick Foles:

“If Carson Wentz was enduring as much pressure as Bradford sustained this season..being sacked 5 times against the Redskins as an example as the line allowed one player to get in his face 13 times..would he really be able to make the throw? Could he get the ball into the places that only a very select few can? Wentz struggles when he spends too much time thinking about where to place the ball..another Quarterback who faced that same problem in 2014 was Nick Foles. That’s why he succeeded so much under Chip in 2013..quick one-read throws that made his simply tremendous 27-2 TD-INT record seem much more impressive than it was..2014 proved that.”
PhillySports Network

The last thing we need is to spend a high draft pick on any of the Quarterbacks in the draft…none of them are worth it…we have to many other needs…the QB’s available in free agency are simply not good enough…the best available QB is Sam Bradford…like or not Vinniedafool!

I think the Browns, Cowboys and 49ers all draft QBs. ( Goff, Wentz, Lynch) leaving NFL ready players available at pick 13. Don’t trade away from that talent select it. Birds have major weaknesses on the OL, the Secondary, and edge rushers. Hope Tunsil or Stanley are available but if not select a CB to play against Odell Beckem, Dez Bryant and Jordan Reed.

Thing is the draft is a good month after free agency begins and the deadline for the Eagles to apply a tag. If they do not sign him to a cap friendly deal or slap a tag on him, they would be at the mercy of the draft and will have to settle for the best QB available. Sounds like a recipe for disaster.

“In the second half, Bradford flourished with 10 touchdown passes and just four interceptions while completing 68 percent of his passes.” CSNPhilly

Oooooh…the second half….the second half….Sammy Sam sam was sooooo good in the second half. He threw 10 tds in the second half!!!!!!

Dude, you have been gushing like a girl in junior high over the second half for months now. Ignoring the fact that of those 10 tds 2 came against a NYG d that was trying less than last night’s pro-bowlers, or that another 2 were Jay Cutler like useless pad my stats TDs in complete garbage time blowout losses…..

Forrgetting that Leaves Sam with what? 6 solid TDs in the final 7 games that counted. I mean, when Foles set records you constantly bellowed about how it was against inferior competition, but I will grant you that which you never did. I’ll grant you the courtesy of convieniently forgetting 40% of his TDs came in meaninless games or in the final minutes of blowout losses where your heor was stinking out the joint when it actually counted. I’ll be kind and forget those things happened.

Lets humour you and just forget all that and roll with the “amazing” 10 td 2nd half and double it.

20 TDs.

WOW!!

20 tds. Superlative. Still rotting down there in the bottom 3rd of the league. Tying him with the incomperable Tyrod Taylor, one behind the incredible Jay Cutler and one ahead of the superstar Brian Hoyer.

Sam Cutler? Tyrod Bradford? Jay Bradford?

Take his “super duper so amazingly fantastic that Koolidiot has to shout about it every 38 seconds” 2nd half and you still get Sam Cutler. Or is it Brian Bradford? Sam Hoyer??

He is a loser.

You have absolutely no idea if any of the draft picks are “worth it” They are complete unknowns.

What is absolutely known is that Bradford is a below average loser.

Your “he’s the best available” arguement is clearly one you’ve used a lot in the past.

Probably what you constantly say to yourself during the last 10 mins of every high school dance you attend and there one last group of girls standing over int he corner…names are Brads, and Cutlet, and Fitzy, and Hoyer……She’s not so bad right?

“You have absolutely no idea if any of the draft picks are “worth it” They are complete unknowns.”

Exactly, Vinniedafool…they are ‘complete unknowns’….which is why you dont spend your first round pick on a complete unknown project that you have no clue, hint, or way to tell if these guys can handle the pressure of being a QB here in Philly.

Last year, Mariotta and Winston were not complete unknowns-they were big time college Qb’s that had played in big time games against big time opponents. They had the talent, the pedigree to warrant picking them as high as they were picked and we argued about them big time…with guys like you GMCliff, paulman, and others declaring that these guys would be busts!

Now we got these small time, mediocre talent QB’s who are at best backups…Wentz who some are now saying is the best of the bunch wasn’t all that impressive at the Senior Bowl…he’s a project that in the best situation needs at least 2 seasons of coaching and then maybe he will be an average QB…a Brandon Weeden or Nick Foles….

Without Sam Bradford last year the Eagles go 2-14…they would have completely stunk ass if they had Nick Foles or Mark Sanchez starting…when you consider the drops, the poor offensive line play, no running game…these are not ‘excuses’ but facts…and we apply the same facts to every other QB…Bradford played well despite all of the problems in every offensive area around him…His play gave us a shot at winning the division only to be let down by a porous defense that allowed Washington’s offense to dominate us!
Bradford’s play was the only reason we had a shot in that game!
Again…what you fail to realize Vinniedafool

QUARTERBACKS DO NOT GROW ON TREES!

You haven’t come up with a single Quarterback who is available that we can definitively state: This guy is better than Sam Bradford…

Cam Newton 143-224 (63.8%) 1800 (8.0) 20-1 116.7

If you are looking to compare Bradford’s season to someone – Bradford’s and Brandon Weeden’s completion percentages, yards per pass attempt, TD:INT ratio, and QB rating were basically the same.

“Bradford’s and Brandon Weeden’s completion percentages, yards per pass attempt, TD:INT ratio, and QB rating were basically the same”

So what!

1. Weeden was throwing the ball to DeAndre Hopkins…Sam Bradford has NEVER had a receiver anywhere near his talent. Good receivers can make the Quarterback better too….it is no coincidence that Nick Foles became a complete bum when DJax was no longer around.
2. Houston receivers didn’t come close to dropping as many passes as the Eagles did and Bradford STILL had a higher completion percentage…he was rated the 4th most accurate passer in the league.

Liam Jenkins wrote a much better article than Jimmy Kempski on Philly Sports Network

If Bradford is no better than Weeden, than why is it widely expected that he is going to be coveted on the free agent market?

When you are completing 68% of your passes despite your receivers leading the league in drops that means you are playing well.
Is Bradford “elite” like Russell Wilson, Tom Brady, Cam Newton, Aaron Russell? NO
Is he a good quarterback who is smart, can make all of the throws, and can lead you to wins…YES

Bradford himself said (after week 12) that he hadn’t picked up the entire playbook and was struggling in that regard. The same playbook that Mike Vick (not the sharpest in the drawer) was running week 1.

I mentioned this several times in the seaons. I asked where had all the wacky formations gone? Where were the unbalanced lines? Where were the bunch formations? Where were the double stacks? Where were all the things we had seen the previous 2 years?

Bradford himself says (after week 12) that he doesn’t know the whole playbook yet. He’s struggling with it. “smart” indeed.

Koolbreeze quotes an article from Bleeding Green Nation praising Sam Weeden….then when confronted with an avalance of quotes destroying Brandon Bradford from the same site that he earlier praised as a great sourse runs away and starts saying there is better elsewhere.

Man you have to dig deep to find the praise you are so desperate for.

“The Drops! The Drops! The second half! The second half!”

2nd half was shit. Every team has drops. Cut the drops from 43 (pro football focus) to the league average (30) and what do you get????

Nothing. Nada. Zip. Zero.

A minor uptake….from 346 to 359. Gee wow.

And no mention that Bradford also led the league (or was near the top) in drops when in STL too. Why does he lead the league in drops everywhere he goes??

Kooltwit will look at the vairables and tell you every single WR he’s ever played with is terrible while the constant (Sam Cutler) is great great great!

He’s just unlucky. Poor unlucky Jay Bradford.

In fact, I think it should be Sam Vick.

Because you were using the “Poor unlucky Vick arguement over and over and over to try to excuse away the fact that that guy also was a terrible QB.

“Philly Sports Network” is Mr. Jenkins VERY OWN WEBSITE that he started himself.

Its a GD wordpress creation…probably took 2 mins to make.

And Koolbreeze brings up this fantastic line from Mr. Jenkins:
“So if constantly repeating that he was the fourth most accurate Quarterback in this league despite a surplus of 43 drops doesn’t change your mind..”

That “article” is a complete puff filled “fan post” editorial with not one empiracle evidence posted by the “writeer” who appears to be making shit up as he goes…..

Highlights:
“Bradford was 4th in completion %age”.

Bradford was 11th in completion %age. Eleventh. Not 4th.

“…the man has emerged as a leader and he has the respect of those around him. ”

Or so I think. I don’t really know, but it fits my narrative so I’ll just say it.

“Well as the season went on and the shower team talks, the raw emotion and the confidence began to take over..Bradford began to lead.”

LOL….WTF is this supposed to even mean?

“The one thing that Bradford screams is accuracy. His laser dart passes rarely miss their target.”

OMG – His “lazer darts!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!” That’s exactly what I got from this year….Bradford’s lazer darts (at this point I am pretty much convinced Kooplidiot and Liam Jenkins are the same guy)

“Sam Bradford throws dimes. Consistently. You can’t doubt it. ”

Oh yes I can!

“43 drops on a season would make any Quarterback look significantly worse.”

Too bad Brady and Bortles had 44 drops …both managed to throw 30+ tds…not 19…..kinda ruins the narrative….

“But in a hybrid West-Coast Offense, Bradford would excel. ”

I mean, I don’t really know that – nor is there any evidence whatsoever to back up the statement – but if I write it – then it must be true!!

2010 the Carolina Panthers pulled the plug on a Sam Bradford type QB, Matt Moore, and handed the reins over to rookie 2nd round draft pick QB Jimmy Clausen. Jimmy couldn’t succeed as the starter which lead to the worst record in NFL.
And with the first pick in 2011 NFL draft the Carolina Panthers select QB from Auburn Cam Newton. Next Sunday Cam Newton will lead the Panthers to the NFC in the Super Bowl and is expected to be the NFL 2015 MVP.

kick Bradford and Sanchez to the curb and slam the door shut.
Draft Cardale Jones and give him 16 starts. If he succeeds the birds have Derek Carr or Russell Wilson. If not they have the first overall draft choice. WIN WIN!!!!!!!

why did he lose his job at osu but is still being talked about as a 2nd or 3rd round pick. damn that man cost himself millions not coming out last year. im with ur panthers post. cut cord on sanchez and bradford and roll with doug pederson 2.0 (chase daniel), get watson next year

i wish matt barkley was still here so we could cut those 2 and bring in daniels and front like ‘may the best man win’, and ‘we wanted matt to have an opportunity to start’ all the while it would be clear as day we were tanking but it would be cloaked… dont think the pr machine could spin a chase daniel signing… fuck it just franchise bradford, he will for sure get us a top 10 pick next year, possibly better

Stop offering suggestions. As usual you don’t have a clue in what you’re talking about.

Cardale Jones isn’t an NFL QB; He played well in a start in the College Championship game, and all of the sudden the stupid started claiming he was one of the best NFL QB Prospects…….Bull, but I know, you need time to see that, so you have it……

You’re on the clock, then afterwards, please shut up. You don’t have a clue.

According to a report on BGN via Howard Eskin…the Eagles and Fletcher Cox are working on a deal reportedly over 100 million…60-70 million guaranteed.
