confetti finally been swept off broad street and we're officially in the off season. naturally the talk is about what moves the eagles will make, who they will sign and trade and a lot of people are bringing up potentially training nick foles. my answer, no way. here's why. i get the eagles are in a position where they have the last pick in the first round of the draft and finally another pick in the fourth. it's not ideal. maybe if your a team that need a quarterback like denver. there may be a trade. you can't rely on carson wentz just yet. even if he's healthy he will have 0 practice preseason, he likely won't be able to start with eagles from the get-go. with wentz still on his rookie contract it's a steal keeping both guys 15 million. it's a backup coming in handy. bottom line,
