Haloti Ngata from Ravens to Lions for a fourth and a fifth. Ngata wouldn't restructure his deal so out the door he goes.

The Rams just fleeced the Eagles.

Sam Bradford is a mediocre QB who averages playing less than 10 games per season. Foles finally enters into an offense that fits his strengths. Correct me if I'm wrong--the Rams also got a pick in return?!?!?!

The Rams just leapfrogged the 49ers for 3rd in the division.

No the Rams also gave up a second round draft pick if I'm not mistaken

From what I've heard, the Eagles get the Rams pick, and the Rams get the Eagles pick.

Who will Foles throw the ball too?

That move makes great sense for the Rams. Zero idea what Chip Kelly is doing in Philly though. He'll be back to coaching in college by 2017.

A 2nd rd? Wow, the rams scored big on this one. I doubt the Eagles even with Mariota will break .500 this season.

Neither Foles nor Bradford should be feared but both needed a change of scenery. Unfortunately neither guy has much talent around him.

What a dumb move by the Eagles. Foles is no star but Bradford is older, he sucks and he can't stay healthy... and somehow the Eagles also tossed in some serious draft considerations?

Baffling.

The Eagles appear to have made a very very big mistake in giving Kelly full control over the roster. This is an awful trade for the eagles. Giving up more draft compensation for a much more expensive and injury prone qb makes absolutely no sense when he may not even be the better qb.

How do the Rams fleece everyone in their trades and still are just so-so???

Bradford imo is massively overrated. Had a couple good games to start his career, then a bunch of meh and injuries. John Skelton outplayed him for a 15 game stretch for crying out loud.

...and somehow instead of being cut, they manage to pick up Foles and a draft pick?

Wow Chip, welcome to the NFL.

Did they get the Rams to flip 1st rounders? Thus, the Eagles move up to #10 and the Rams back to #20?


Here is the info about the trade.


Adam Schefter reports, the Eagles will be surrendering their 2016 2nd-round pick to the Rams not matter what.
However, there the Eagles will get back a conditional 2016 pick from the Rams. If Bradford does not pay at all the Eagles will receive a 3rd round pick; and a 4th round if he starts less than 50 percent of the plays

There is no way that Bradford is the opening day starter for the Eagles. They are gearing up for a big trade on draft day. I think Mariota is still in play.

Has to be. Bradford + Sanchez as your QB imo spells doom and a top 10 pick in 2016.

Then again, it might be the same even if they draft Mariota.
