***Official Trade for Nick Foles Thread***
Because this shit is like herpes....
Give up our 3rd for this guy. We all know Chiefs don't draft QB's in the early rounds...we trade for backups. *Edit* http://www.rotoworld.com/player/nfl/7475/nick-foles ESPN's Chris Mortensen stated on NFL 32 Thursday that he believes Nick Foles could be acquired for a third-round pick. Foles-to-Kansas City is the obvious connection because Andy Reid drafted Foles and the Chiefs need a quarterback. (Desperately.) "I do believe there is some substance to the desire to talk to the Eagles about Nick Foles," said Mort. "I think it'd take probably a third-rounder to get Foles. So I wouldn't close the door on that." In an ideal world, the Chiefs could acquire Foles for a third-rounder, re-sign Dwayne Bowe, and perhaps draft Luke Joeckel at No. 1 overall.

Foles competing at Chiefs' traning camp is probably a safe bet. Who he is competing with is the not 63 million dollar question.

Behind the scenes, Chiefs and Eagles discuss Foles
Behind the scenes, Chiefs and Eagles discuss Foles Mike Garafolo, USA TODAY Sports11:17a.m. EST February 23, 2013 combine foles (Photo: Eric Hartline, USA TODAY Sports) Story Highlights A possible trade between the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles involving QB Nick Foles has been discussed The Eagles, with new head coach Chip Kelly, insist they want to keep Foles, who was drafted by Andy Reid, now head coach of the Chiefs Meanwhile, the Chiefs haven't (yet) asked QB Matt Cassel to take a pay cut from his $7.5 million 2013 salary INDIANAPOLIS – The Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles spoke this week about a possible trade involving Eagles quarterback Nick Foles, but no progress has been made toward a deal, according to a person informed of the talks between the teams. The person, who spoke to USA TODAY Sports on condition of anonymity because the conversations weren't to be discussed publicly, said the Eagles conveyed to the Chiefs what they've been saying through the media – they like Foles and plan on giving him a chance to compete with Michael Vick for the starting job. YAWN! Elway unimpressed with Combine QBs 'WAY AHEAD OF SCHEDULE': Doc amazed by RGIII's rehab BARKLEY VIDEO: USC QB on his draft value Former Eagles coach Andy Reid was asked about Foles during his press conference at the scouting combine. The new Chiefs coach said, "He's not available. You just had (Eagles GM) Howie (Roseman) up here (on the podium), so I think you know that." However, the conversation between the teams about Foles nonetheless occurred later that day. The Eagles reiterated what Reid already knew – Foles is not on the market at this point. There's always a chance things could change in the next few weeks or months. In fact, there's no urgency at this point because, while teams are free to discuss potential trades right now, no deals can occur before the start of the league year on March 12. For now, talks between the Eagles and Chiefs are going nowhere on the Foles front. Meanwhile, a person briefed on the Chiefs' thinking in regard to Matt Cassel said the veteran quarterback has not been offered a pay cut from his slated salary of $7.5 million. The person, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the team hasn't talked about Cassel's contract situation in detail, said it seems Cassel is destined to be released soon. |

Those that get excited that every QB trade that looks like it won't happen, doesn't mean we're one step closer to a QB in the first. It means we're one step closer to Cassel being on the team. So, I wouldn't get too excited.

So by "discuss" we mean:
KC: Is Foles available? PHI: No. KC: OK, thanks. |

Perhaps...but it kind of gives some insight on where they stand on drafting a qb with the overall pick at the moment...

How soon can a trade like this occur if it were to happen? Someone yesterday said the 12th?
