Keep Foles and spend every dime on fixing the def secondary.

And we really don't know what Foles upside is, especially if he has a solid OLine.

actually his upside is pretty much clear as day...he has none....hes somewhere in between last year and the year before....but his limitations are pretty obvious and he has no ++ tools
i can take a phrase thats rarely heard...flip it....now its a daily word

igy gettin it done like warrick

im the board pharmacist....always one step above yous

His leadership skills are ++, but then again, you don't believe in leadership, so...

ice grillin you

on the contrary....his leadership is weak....hes way too much of a nice guy...its actually one of the things he does have room for improvement in and thats being more vocal and strong...with experience this could happen altho even his closest friends say that that isnt the kind of person he is...but that would never be a reason he wouldnt be an elite qb and its probably not in his top 5 negatives....yes leadership is overrated

Always viewed Foles as a Eli type leader. Silent but his team mates respect his toughness. A guy like Peters doesn't go trucking across the field to stick up for a guy like Donovan or Sanchez.

If they're going to stick with Foles - and that's what it looks like - they need to upgrade upgrade the WR spot. Like get Dez or D Thomas or something along those lines. I like Maclin but defensive coordinators don't respect him the same way.

How great of a pick would Bridgewater have been? If he were coming out this year he'd probably be a top 10 pick.

i loved bridgewater but even i couldnt justify taking him last year.....foles having that ridiculous outlier of a season in 2013 set the franchise back a good 2-3 years

Agreed but I can play hindsight because I can

lol leadership

this isnt your corny high school team....this is the big boy league. 32 year old men dont need someone else to encourage them to earn their bonus money.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

No, it's the farging NFL and whether your retarded ass knows it or not leadership on and off the field is important.   If it isn't at this point it's because your generation is nothing more than hipster gang banger wannabe dickfaces.

I never said it was the most important factor.  I said it was important.  Leadership by example is how great organizations succeed.   Athletic talent is more important, obviously.

Oh and good one with the old jokes.  That shtein never gets, well, old.

Well yeah, considering that's a range of crap to MVP candidate.

if you ask smith, irvin, the o-line, jimmy johnson and others they'd probably say aikman.
