The Philadelphia Eagles have made a franchise-changing trade, acquiring the second overall pick in the draft from the Cleveland Browns with the goal of drafting the team’s future franchise-quarterback.
The move has major implications for the franchise’s short and long-term pictures, and current starting quarterback Sam Bradford may now want out of Philadelphia.
In this week’s podcast for Eagledelphia, Denny Basens is joined by Jeff Kolsky, Tim Kelly, and Tucker Bagley, and the four give their reactions to the trade and debate whether or not Sam Bradford will be on the roster this season.

Good Stuff,
I think this was a good Trade on Paper for the Eagles as they are
only really giving up a 3rd Rounder in this Draft, a 1st Rounder in 2017 & a 2nd Rounder in 2018 Draft..
The Eagles get the Browns 4th Round in 2017 Draft which kind of cancels out the 4th the Eagles are sending them this year and Eagles go from 8th this Year to #2 Overall for one of the Top 2 QB Prospects in this Draft
Wentz will ride the Bench in 2016 and probably be Inactive for most of the Seasonwhile he learns the NFL Game.. This Deal is for the Long-Term and not for the 2016 Season where they have Bradford as the Starter with Daniels as the Backup.. The Eagles should compete for the wide-open NFC East with Sam Bradford at QB if he Plays well and the Team Plays well.. If Bradford plays well then so much the better as his Value would only increase for himself and as trade bait for next Off-Season where maybe the Eagles can get a Draft Pick or two back in return but that’s next off-seasons business which is an eternity away…
Exactly…as far as the rookie QB…that is long term business…Bradford in2016 is short term business..he maybe an asset if he plays remotely well.
Carson Wentz is 23 years old, 2 years older than Jarad Goff. If he really sits in 2016 then the Eagles will have a 24 year old rookie QB in 2017.
QB’s if they remain Healthy play to 35-36 Years old and some like Manning & Brady are pushing 40 Years of Age and that’s even withthrmsustaining a major injury during their Careers…
Tony Romo, Carson Palmer, Drew Brees, Big Ben, Eli Manning, Alex Smith are all in their 30’s and playing at a high level when healthy
Who gives a damn about how old he is…If he wins us a Superbowl it doesn’t matter. Also, you are correct Paulman. Just because he will be 23. That is still young in QB years.
If Wentz is the player the Eagles believe he then eagles0superbowls will have to change his name and opinion
Man I really want cj promise he looks just like shady on the field
CJ Prosise is a stud. At 6’1 he runs very low which I like. Looks to have a good burst off the ball, and hits the hole hard. Daniel Lasco is another back who I like. Dude has some good speed, and catches the ball well out of the backfield. I think the Eagles have to go RB with that 3rd pick. Kinda sketchy with only having Mathews and Sproles in the backfield..
