    Sounds bad. Dude is a piece of shit. Wonder how this will be treated given they were off duty. Assume it will be normal charges but they will go after them hard.

    yes he is. got to think assault charges at the very least just due to the injuries. and if the off duty cops are white i can almost guarantee McCoy tries to make it about race.

    Eagles offseason plan:

    1. Put the GM who got fired back in charge

    2. Hire the head coach no one else wanted

    3. Acquire the NFL's worst starting quarterback

    wait, what? wasn't it just 3 shorts years ago you killed me for calling Foles an average NFL QB?

    Turns out he's worse. My stance on Foles was that he played very well in Chip's system in '13 but we needed more time to see what he actually was...then he got hurt in '14 and was absolutely dreadful last year with the Rams. At this point I think we know what he is now.

    I have little faith in this franchise at this point.

    Did they sign Foles? fwiw, I don't think he was the worst starting QB last year. Bad, but not the worst.
    (Just went and looked at the stats...and they are frigging horrid. You are right he was one of the worst. Peyton Manning was neck and neck with him and Crapernick was in the conversation too.)

    They should go Chiefs route and look for a decent QB and keep building out the D.
    The love he receives is the love that is saved

    I feel like they should hire a director of college scouting prior to me sending in my season ticket money.

    go the chiefs route and sign chase daniel. he's not close to the long term answer, but I think he's perfect to implement pedersons' system. and if they lose games it's not the end of the world. I don't want any part of bradford...he sucks and he's way too expensive. this team isn't winning anything for a while. rather see them build something than overspend for turds.

    problem is kelly killed their roster. drafting losers like agholor and marcus smith have set this team back for years. hope they take their time and fix it the right way.

    all of the philly teams are in the same situation. they all suck and I hope they all take the right path towards competitiveness. I don't love the phillies front office, but they've have a good offseason. I hope the eagles follow suit.

    I have a little more faith in Howie after this deal. Eagles made out well here

    Eagles Wake-Up Call: Bradford Deal Buys Time

    Plus, the two numbers that matter most when evaluating the contract the Eagles gave their quarterback.

    Sam Bradford. (Jeff Fusco)

    Sam Bradford. (Jeff Fusco)

    One year, and $22 million.

    That’s the investment the Eagles made to find out if Sam Bradford is their franchise quarterback for the future, and it’s a smart investment to make. You’ll hear a lot of numbers about Bradford’s contract — two years, $36 million total, $26 million “guaranteed” — but the way Howie Roseman and the Eagles negotiated the deal, the true investment is far less than that.

    If the Bradford decision backfires, the Eagles can cut the quarterback loose in 2017, having only paid him $22 million. The reported $26 million "guaranteed" isn't fully due at signing, with $4 million of that through a roster bonus due next March, per Andrew Brandt.

    Although the Eagles would save $14 million in cap money if they cut him in 2017 (per Over the Cap), they would take a $9.5 million cap hit that year. While Bradford clearly didn't come back on the cheapest deal possible, the contract does appear to be a good compromise between both sides with the aforementioned team-friendly elements — plus a couple more.

    Had this agreement not been reached, it would've been very unlikely for the Eagles to find a better quarterback to start next season. Plus, with this contract, Philadelphia can still be somewhat of a player in free agency, while still getting a deal done with Fletcher Cox.
    Trending: Eagles Sign Sam Bradford To Two-Year Deal

    That's because Bradford's 2016 cap hit is only $12.5 million, which ranks 22nd among NFL quarterbacks and is less than his 2015 number. The Eagles could also save $3.5 million against the 2016 cap by cutting Mark Sanchez, who ranks 28th among NFL quarterbacks in terms of 2016 cap hit.

    Because Bradford's cap hit in the first year of his deal is so small, it skyrockets in the second season to $23.5 million. However, it seems unlikely the Eagles would ever pay that as they'd probably restructure the deal if they decide they want him long term.

    Given the nature of Bradford's deal, it doesn't prohibit the Eagles from drafting a quarterback next month, even with the No. 13 pick. While the Eagles have holes to address along the offense that would help a potential franchise quarterback, they could still take a "project" like Memphis' Paxton Lynch, whom many consider to be at least one or two years away from starting in the NFL.

    Philadelphia also has multiple third- and fifth-round picks, and could target wild cards like Ohio State's Cardale Jones or Penn State's Christian Hackenberg.

    But what this contract is intended for isn't to lock up the guaranteed future face of the franchise.

    Instead, it buys time — quite literally — to answer the question in the next year or two that the Eagles couldn't figure out last season: is Bradford a long-term solution and franchise quarterback? If yes, then they've found an answer at the most important position in football. If no, they've given themselves an escape route, but it's one that leads them back to where they've been the last several years.

    Ok with it. Definitely have to draft a QB though as well as 8 OL.

    think theyll court Mario Williams? He seemed to like Schwartz's defense
