Should we take Foles' $10 mill option this offseason?

Unless Foles makes a huge a progression in Reid's offense this year (which is highly unlikely, IMO), no one is going to give Foles a starting job, let alone a "Premium" back up job.

His best bet, IMO, is continue to work with Reid as a backup QB and maybe get a chance to start somewhere in 2018 or 2019.

I just don't think there's going to be a market for Foles.

I agree, he hasn't shown me that he's anything more than a backup. With Bray still on the roster, paying $10M for Foles is foolish, especially when we have better uses for that money.

I'm going to assume you watched a game from his 2013 season yesterday, not the game against the Jaguars.

Chip Kelly and the 49ers are bound to be desperate. They restructured Kaep's contract so that both sides will walk away next offseason.. in which they then have zero QBs on the roster.

I'd have to expect some interest in Foles there.

No one knows if Chip Kelly and the 49ers front office even survive past this season.

Secondly, why would Kelly sign a guy a he traded away, expecially when he was a failure in St. Louis and replaced by Case Keenum? But hell, if they want him, they can have him if they're going to overpay.

I'd rather have Blaine Gabbert as a back up.
