Minshew has done nothing to deserve to be considered on the same level. I just got finished reading an article on Minshew and it was discussing how his father and he were talking about him getting a chance to compete for a starting job. Even Minshew believed he should be a starter and is looking forward in th off-season for that chance. His performance over the past two weeks has hurt that opportunity. Overall I don’t think Minshew fits here and he’s 1-3 in fill in games with injuries. Obviously Tannehill will not be making that kind of money net season, and do you think Minshe won’t get a pay raise next season as well? Mishew hasn’t been stellar here. I wouldn’t be in any rush to bring him back. I already said (above) that Minshew should expect a moderate pay raise. He's coming off a rookie contract. I think his market value will be $3-4M per season on a 1-2 year contract. Because of questions, he'll make backup money and look for a short term contract with the hopes of it being a "prove-it" deal. Nick Foles is 3-11 in games he started the last 4 years. This coaching staff has no ties to Foles. Most of the teammates he had here are gone and of the few remaining, their future with the team is uncertain after this season. We all appreciate Foles and hold his past performance here in high regard. But like the 2017 pre-injury Wentz, the magic is gone. It's time to let go.

Nothing worth banking on and his pay raise might not be as moderate as you assume. Also like I’ve already told you he’s looking for an opportunity to compete. His dad already said it’s not about the money so in essence he would take less money to get a chance to start over staying with Philly. Also when it comes to Foles this is all too familiar. Coming in after being left out in the cold and looking like his career is over until he played here again. If they don’t bring him back I won’t be broken up about it. I just think they need to move in a different direction from Minshew. He doesn’t fit and he wants a chance to be a starter again. Also if Steichen does get a coaching job I see a real possibility of Reich returning as OC and there would be a connection with Foles. Just some food for thought.

Not as athletic as Taylor, but someone who can make plays with his legs and is a decent passer with familiarity with Brown. He’s definitely out with the Titans and will probably be looking for a new home. Why not Philly? Also would give him a chance to showcase himself with some really good talent. Most talent he’s been around in his career. Hmm not sure I like that shout. Tannehill is not good. Plus he's not going to get too many opportunities to showcase himself as the back up. I can see why you have suggested him though I get the logic.

Just want someone who has some mobility and can throw the ball some in the league. Also I’d prefer a vet player rather than a draftpick.
