Shady's Revenge!

If, by some miracle it nets Murray signing (see my link above w/interest on both sides), we need to send Shady an electric blanket and a snow blower in appreciation.

[Bigboy10182000 2,726]

And ironically Gore goes to Indianapolis and gets more guaranteed money

[Irish Chaos 6]

Shady just seemed VERY bitter on NFL network taling to Scott Hansen....joking again about talking frank gore out of coming to philly.

[Soulfly3 4,275]

McCoy said he told Gore Chip is a genius and would get him the ball, a lot

[flysack 729]

at the new thread title. MADNESS.

What the hell is Chip Kelly doing down in Phili? Are you guys hitting panic mode yet? Nick Foles for Sam Bradford? WHY? What's the advantage there? Doesn't Chip realize he could probably have Glass Man Bradford and his bloated contract for 5th round pick AT MOST?

MADNESS!

[Bob Magaw 2,525]

This could be a train wreck of epic proportions.

Eta: could it be a complicated three way deal happening right now? Why isnt it public if the players have been notified? Grasping for straws, hoping its a three way and taking the league some time to sort through.

But this doesn't really compute. For the same reason Bradford was thought to be a hard trade for STL (last year of the legacy labor agreement #1 overall contract, not to mention two straight blown ACLs), it would seemingly be hard for PHI to move him as a key piece of the puzzle in any putative Mariota-related trade?

I can see players really wondering what they have to do to earn Kelly's loyalty. Certain guys have it, others don't and it doesn't seem to be performance based. See Cooper, Riley.

Rams-Eagles trade now official. Rams trade QB Sam Bradford and undisclosed draft-pick compensation to Philadelphia for Nick Foles.

Maybe the undisclosed compensation is the Rams 2015 and 2016 first rounders?

The Eagles would agree to eat a significant portion of Bradford's '15 cap hit, is my guess. Which doesn't bother me ... if they're able to swing a deal for MM, he'll be on a rookie contract anyway, making a tenth of what you'd have had to pay Foles for any extension, so no biggie.

I just have a sinking feeling that Chip planned out the move from A to C without a backup plan if he gets stuck at point B.

[Deranged Hermit 415]

None of this makes sense. None of it.

Of the options that are left, him and Spiller are probably the best, but a guy with Murray's injury history coming off a 450 touch season is a big risk.

Agree, I wouldn't sign Murray if I was Chip. But the shtick alone if this would happen to come through would be wonderful.

Sorry, feel like the slimy Twitter hacks. Thought it was more substantial, just a musing from Pat McManamon:

It will be hilarious if Bradford undergoes a radical transformation, becoming an iron man and Pro Bowl QB in PHI.

Color my skeptical Chip Kelly deals a $10M RB who set records in his offense to then pay one with INJ concerns big $ a few days later

What’s crazy about the Sam Bradford for Foles trade? It was basically dead twice over the last two weeks. Until right at the deadline.

I was a big fan of Bradford coming out of college. I'd love for it to happen. I doubt it will.

Eagles acquire QB Sam Bradford and a 2015 fifth-round pick for Rams QB Nick Foles, a 2015 sixth-rounder and a 2016 second-rounder.

LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

why? i just dont get why? these dumb stipulations arent a consolation for eagles fans

[Mr. Irrelevant 1,692]

You could have put the 2016 2nd-rounder on the OTHER SIDE of that trade and I still wouldn't like it for the Birds.

[Insein 8,803]

Howies probably in Luries office right now going "See I told you this would happen."

[ConnSKINS26 5,251]

Oh my god, you guys actually gave UP a future 2nd in this deal?? I figure you'd be getting the higher draft picks to take on that contract.

Fisher does it again. Mediocre coach, great salesman apparently.

[Awful Waffle 34]

Think I'm done with Chip Kelly. Honestly. This is ####### terrible.

[Ash 293]

Howie's head has probably literally exploded. I can only imagine janitors are on emergency duty cleaning up the mess

If we did actually give up a 2nd rnd pick next year for Bradford, he won't be the only one. Bradford is in the final year of his contract as well.

[Billy Bats 3,393]

I just checked, www.firechipkelly.com is for sale.

:purchased:

[GoBirds 8,790]

That's horrible. Conditional 4th rounder if Bradford doesn't start 8 games. Conditional 3rd if it's due to injury.

[Soulfly3 4,275]

From full of endless hope just 3-4 days ago...

to this....

I can empathize... I truly can.

[12punch 132]

any truth to the rumor chip found out foles was a jew?

[GoBirds 8,790]

So the storyline of needing a mobile QB for his offense just went out the window. He's older, slower, and more fragile.

I hope Maxwell signed before he saw this.

Eagles are assuming Bradford's contract as is. At least for now. Has 1yr left and made no approaches on a new contract as part of this trade

[otello 394]

Is this real life?

Clarity (kinda) on Bradford/Foles trade: If Bradford doesn’t play 50 percent of snaps next year, Eagles get a conditional draft pick back

does not matter lol
