MDS, you realize Foles makes 12 million less than Bradford right? 

They could've forked over the extra $2 mil for Maclin and had an extra 2nd rd pick still AND $10 million more if they didn't make that trade.  That's the hidden downside to the deal.  How it impacts everything else.  It's not just a question of Bradford v Foles.

they are going to restructure bradford

the maclin thing i dont think was "we want but we cant get to 11." they pegged him for 9 and that was that. they didnt go to 11 because they didnt think he was worth it.
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.

bradfords money does not effect anything else...its 12 mil for one year not guaranteed in a year when they have more money than they can spend...macks deal was long term with a big guarantee...it was an investment in a position and a player he didn't feel comfortable doing...theres no investment with Bradford (yet)

plus while i don't agree that Bradford is the answer  money isn't going to be an object with chip when it comes to getting his guy at qb and really it shouldn't as its obviously the most important position


as for demarco murray (who by the way is a classic two name guy) it would make no sense in that chip said at the presser today that this isn't baseball money matters and shady was making too much....to go out and spend big bucks on demarco murray at this point would be against everything he said

i can take a phrase thats rarely heard...flip it....now its a daily word

igy gettin it done like warrick

Oh, my bad.  I thought you said if anyone mentioned smoothies, you'd rape MDS.

Just in case I'm still misreading this...






SMOOTHIES.

you rapey bastiches  :-D

BTW getting Murray would make no sense because he's gonna cost a nice bit of money. Let's assume Mathews stays healthy, which is a stretch. Polk would have to be the odd man out because ain't enough carries for Murray, Mathews and Sproles.

Plus Murray is not exactly a picture of health and he's a fumbler.

MDS

i think they keep 4 rbs next year

matthews
sproles
polk
some guy they draft

if "some guy they draft" is very good/there are injuries elsewhere, they could just cut polk or trade him for a conditional 7th rounder or something during the preseason. or the situations solves itself when matthews' bones break during ota's.

They are allowed to trade guys, you know. Even Mathews.

They're not gonna trade Mathews right after signing him.
