Is it just me, or are there a lot more player trades than usual leading up to the league year start date?

It definitely feels like there are more moves than normal.

Plus I don't think you're getting to #2, I think Gettleman is putting out a smoke screen and is taking a QB. Eli ain't getting younger and the Giants better not blow this.

Looks like either the Browns plan on trading down, or taking Barkley number 1 and attempting a run with Tyrod.

So we are getting it all on Mayfield or Allen?
Arnold and Rosen go goff and wentz style 1,2

Don't sleep on a second and a third pick. This isn't the NHL, a second round pick should be a day one contributor if not starter and a third a solid special team contributors.

Foles was also bad in KC
And before he went to the Rams, he was benched in Philly & cast off

If he was for free... OK
But he’s far from a sure thing
To actually give up picks for that is a bad idea when we can just sign a UFA

U don’t trade picks for a guy to be here for 1 year
(Unless you’re the Browns! Suckers)

I think that's pretty accurate.

I see the Giants going Allen. Unless they REALLY like Webb....

There is a lot to like about him, but he's a third round pick and the likelihood of that working out isn't good.

Edit: Rosen....been a long day.

Brother just got cleared.

3rd will get you a starter too if it's a position of need.

I'm saying it's the sammy not playing for us last year pick.
Taking his injuries and drama to la for 1 year 8 tds
And
Tyrod who nobody liked but me

That's the equivalent to foles in my senario

How could he be bad in kc, Andy Reid was the coach?

He makes everyone a good qb, I was told.

Trade both our 1sts this year for 2nds this year and 1sts next year.

Take 6 guys (our 4 2nds and 2 3rds) who should be starters for us.

Let Brady and Big Ben burn their last good year in league, drop off will be soon.

Take our QB next year with 1 of 3 1sts. All the picks acquired this year will give a solid foundation around them. All our bad cap hits will be gone next year too. Can be a powerhouse with all that cost controlled talent.

Room to sign a huge free agent too

That’s not true
I got ripped by A LOT of Tyrod supporters on here

But I’m the one who’s always wrong...
right?

And those picks are very valuable to us going forward

Liking him and thinking he was a good NFL qb are different.

It was time to move on.

You are still at around %99 wrong rate ☺

Well your success rate judging QBs is suspect at best after supporting Tyrod

And u still haven’t explained away how Foles has played poorly for most of his career

I guess it’s bc u can’t
So just keep cracking jokes

I’ll just let everyone else on here continue to let u know how trading for Foles is a dumb dumb move

I already let u off the hook once for taking a shot at me for no reason

Everyone (just about) here thinks Foles is a bad idea

Keep living on your dream world where u think you’re right

Children....Children....

Let me settle this.

Boss thinks he's worth a risk, not crowning him the surefire savior.

You disagree.

There is a middle ground position where we all don't have to run to two different poles ALL the time.

Like I said:
I like tyrod. Seamed like a good leader and good guy.
Better then ej (the 1st round pick)we traded up to acquire. Ty replaced him as a ufa.
That ran it's course.

I also like okposo for similar reasons .
Beyond goals and assists. Call me crazy

We do that this year then we have holes all around him and burn a year of his contract. Why not load up on picks to fill the holes and have him walk in a great situation? One where Brady and Ben are a year older too.
