Nick Foles News
http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/2013/2/2...-eagles-chiefs
The Kansas City Chiefs still don't have a reliable starting quarterback for the 2013 season, a glaring issue that will assuredly be addressed in the coming months. One possibility for Andy Reid and his new team could be to bring in the quarterback he drafted last year out of Arizona, and as Chris Mortensen sees it, the Chiefs would have to give up at least a third-round pick to do so. For more on the Chiefs offseason, head over to Arrowhead Pride. Mortensen said on ESPN's "NFL 32" a third-rounder would probably be the going rate to acquire Foles. He seems to believe Kansas City is inclined to head to the bargaining table for the 24-year-old passer. Clearly the connection between Reid and Foles would be a starting point to these negotiations. He drafted Foles in Round 3 of the 2012 NFL Draft, ultimately supplanting Michael Vick with the rookie quarterback later in the season. If the Chiefs find a way to bring in Foles, retain Dwayne Bowe and use their No. 1 pick in April for another valuable commodity like Luke Joeckel, we might actually see the beginning of a decent offensive display. Kansas City has plenty of work ahead this offseason. |

Like I said, I could stomach a trade for Nick Foles...but it would be a short leash.
BUT If they think its smart to go into next year with Joeckel at left tackle, Brandon Albert in SD and our quarterbacks being Foles, Cassel and Stanzi....they should only be afforded a short leash by the fan base. If it blows up in their face, they deserve it....and it will. If they pass on Geno, he will go on to another team and destroy worlds and we will be stuck will Foles...who wont be as good...but good enough to keep us out of position to take a QB again in the next couple years. It would be the Chiefs bat signal that "you can fire up those BBQs, guys. We are about to get back to 9-7 and first round loss. All is well" When in reality, Foles will be at home watching Geno win playoff games. |

Stop assuming Geno will be great in the NFL. That is your first mistake. What if they pass on him and he goes to the Raiders and busts hard? If you think there isn't a valid reason why everyone on the planet is skeptical of Geno, then you are crazy.

Andy Reid made guys like AJ Feeley and Kevin Kolb look like respectable starters and Donovan McNabb into one of the best quarterbacks in the league for a long time. To think that he couldn't take a kid like Geno and get the most out of him is silly. I dont care what he would do in Oakland...they dont have a guy like Andy Reid that has a long history of getting the most out of his quarterbacks.
Like Ive said, if they chose to go with Foles, I could live with it, but the leash would be short. For once, I just want them to show some balls and draft their own quarterback. |

if all kc has to give up to get Foles is a third round pick, then that seems like a great deal, especially considering kc and the front office will have a lot more tape on the kid and know what his strengths and weakneses are... I'm thinking there's no way Philly lets Foles go for just a third round pick, especially with Vick's inability to stay healthy.

we can have the best QB in this draft, whoever you think it is...that's the perk for the being the shittiest team in the league we wasted 3 decades because of a stupid, childish fear of drafting and developing a QB....there is no rationalization for turning a 2-14 season and the #1 pick into another team's ****ing backup QB who was the 88th pick last year... i don't give a **** how fat reid is...that is indefensible bullshit..

If we go with Foles, we better make the playoffs next year. Anything less than 8 wins is unacceptable.

I'm so ****ing tired of this cycle of mediocrity. We don't draft a legit QB in this draft, Reid and Dorsey won't be able to be fired soon enough. |

A lesser version of a shotgun spread system QB to boot Can't take Geno, but can deal for an inferior guy because he has "experience.
