Foles is now a football god in Philly and will die as one never having to start another game. He will make top backup money on his next contract and have a happy life. As for Wentz, now he is going to be expected to win a super bowl and anything less will be a disappointing career.
Edit: Anyone think there is a chance Foles retires?
Foles has a history, it's called "champion." Because of his play success, he is now in the conversation for the Hall of Fame one day. I think that "back up" tag is old news, so yesterday morning.Originally posted by Nastastical:Originally posted by VaBeachNiner:Originally posted by WestCoastForever:I don't know how you trade the guy who won you the first super bowl, against tom brady, and was the mvp. it was wentz's misfortune he got hurt, but it sure looked like foles"s team. its an embarrassment of riches.

Nope
Never going to happen. Since Wentz is still on a rookie contract and Foles makes backup money, I don't see the urgency to move anyone. I'd rather go into next season with a great QB situation and zero concerns about the most important position in football.
Someone would have to blow my socks off to make me move him and how many teams will do that when you factor in Foles history? Maybe the Browns are that stupid, but teams will be cautious about buying high on Foles after the St. Louis debacle. None of the QB needy teams have stable offenses that Foles can thrive in, so the Rams situation might just repeat itself if someone like the Bills trade for him.

Originally posted by tjd808185:I think Philly has to trade Foles this offseason. 1. Strike while the iron is hot. 2. No way do you want that qb controversy dominating your press.
Originally posted by Nastastical:There is zero QB controversy in Philadelphia. Wentz was playing like the best QB in football before going down. Philly would've been the clear superbowl favorite if he didn't get hurt. People are making it seem like Foles led some weak team to a title.

Originally posted by GhostOfBaalke:Foles has a real weird deal. 5 year, about 26 million. But if he stays on the eagles roster for 2018 then it's voided after the 2018 season and becomes a 2 year 11 mil deal. There is a ton of value for a team that trades for him. They get a qb for 4 years 20 mil.
Eagles absolutely need to trade him for multiple reasons.
It's very possible some team gives up a first rounder for a 4 year (about) 20 mil deal for a super bowl mvp qb.
