Oh, I got a great day and feel fine. Look at the incredible anger in the replies, I obviously struck a nerve pointing out the truth.

 I did read the responses and I think you are projecting when you say people were angry.  Again, if you have evidence point it out but if you abandon reason in your approach to people in the blog, people will just ignore you.  You have no facts that support your position.

So is Wentz cap hit clear as of 2022? 

Yes. We take the hit this year, tank, and then clear the decks in 2022. They need to do more of this. That's why you trade BG as well. $33mm in dead money on a reduced cap = last place. So load all the damage into 2021.

Just a guess...

Eagles side:  Wentz requested a trade then made it difficult to be traded to Chicago (who had the best offer) so in order to accommodate Wentz, he was traded to Indy for less.

Wentz camp: So what?

 

Garafolo said Wentz never requested a trade but the feeling was he was done in Philly.

Horrible deal.

Yes they take the entire hit this year since its a Pre June trade. 

Much as I hate the prospect of another period of Eagles history without a decent starting QB, I believe the proper rebuild is to stockpile some young talent first — and then draft a franchise QB.  The Eagles showed with Wentz they will climb from #13 to 8, and from 8 to #2 if a QB comes along that they love and believe can make them a contender.  The current salary cap and roster say clearly that now is not that time.

The problem is,  4-12 and 5-11 wont get you close enough to the top 2 QB's in the 2022 draft so guess what happens

We bring in a Mariota, a Carr and we go 8-8. No playoffs and once again we cant get a young good QB recruit. 

So we live with Carr, and we go 6-10. See above

Then we get a goff. 7-9. 

OVER AND OVER AND OVER AGAIN

 

I think you might be giving this roster too much credit.  I think we will be very close to #1 overall next year.

Yup.

"The Eagles have traded #6, their 2021 second and a 2022 second for #3.”

”With the third pick in the 2021 NFL draft, the Philadelphia Eagles select Trey Lance, QB, ND State.” 

Odds are greater than 50% this happens.  

I’m guessing if Colts make the playoffs and Wentz plays in so many games then it turns into a 1st?

I'm never buying another jersey again.  I barely wear them anymore.  Thankfully I didn't get his.  The last one I got was Sproles and my wife bought me that.  Kind of funny seeing a guy my size wear a jersey of a guy his size.  Either way, next one I get would be a dawkins throwback.  I have maybe 20 jerseys now, so I am good.  

I'm glad it was a gift. Barnett could be in the same box as well. I'll keep Ertz since he will have played most of his career in Philly

Did you see one of us grab a security guy that was hassling them and yank him into a mob of green? Was hilarious. 

I did not.  But, in my drunken defense, there was something happening in every row at that game.  Nothing rough, just silliness.  Actually, I was surprised at how fun the atmosphere was.  

I do remember the team down in that same corner at the end of the game.  That happened, right?

 

 

As long as they don’t draft a QB in the 1st this year I’m okay with this. There’s way better talent elsewhere at 6 (6-15 if they trade back).

I only buy throwbacks. Last Jersey I bought of a player on the team was McNabb in his 2nd year. Just no point in todays NFL.

Maybe just starting 75% of the games.

I think that's a fair deal for Barnett. We can't really afford to let him walk. Malik is gone. Curry will (and should) be gone. Graham is getting old.

Makes the HC all the more head scratching. 

Backup QB -- Jacoby Brissett. FA, will be cheap, knows the system. Makes too much sense.

We may never know what actually happened but it wont stop the media from making things up

Also welcome back

Threshold drops to 70% of snaps if they make playoffs, otherwise it's 75%. 

Now, could it be possible that Doug actually wanted to keep Wentz and that's why he was fired? I mean, it makes sense considering what Lurie said about the differences in the view of a long-term plan. 

I think we did OK if Wentz stays healthy next year.
