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. |

Report: Kansas City Chiefs told Nick Foles unavailable
5 By Gregg Rosenthal Around The League Editor Published: Feb. 23, 2013 at 11:47 a.m. Updated: Feb. 23, 2013 at 12:44 p.m. INDIANAPOLIS -- The Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles both insisted Thursday that a trade involving quarterback Nick Foles was unlikely. Eagles coach Chip Kelly said that he wanted to coach Foles, and Chiefs coach Andy Reid believed the Eagles liked Foles too much to deal him. Behind the scenes, the Chiefs at least wanted to find out how serious the Eagles were about their Foles fever. Mike Garafolo of USA Today reported Saturday that the two teams spoke this week about Foles, but no progress was made toward a deal. The conversation took place after Reid publicly said Foles was "not available." It appears Reid is right. The Eagles reiterated to the Chiefs that Foles was not available at this time. That possibly could change in the coming weeks with the league year starting March 12. Either the Eagles are trying to gain leverage and not show their hand or they actually mean what they say. Our guess: Foles is unlikely to go anywhere. Follow Gregg Rosenthal on Twitter @greggros

Well maybe we can put this to bed now.
Which is fine. Several QBs in this draft who are at least as good. |

It'd take a 3rd to get Foles. If we throw Cassel in, it would take a 2nd rounder.

It's becoming crystal clear. The Chiefs are targeting Nick Foles,
The Kansas City Star considers the Chiefs "unlikely" to use the No. 1 overall pick on a quarterback. It's becoming crystal clear. The Chiefs are targeting Nick Foles, and Alex Smith as an apparent fallback option, and they're likely to use the No. 1 pick on free agent Branden Albert's replacement. The Star does anticipate Kansas City potentially taking a quarterback in the later rounds. Miami of Ohio's Zac Dysert and Arkansas' Tyler Wilson would fit Andy Reid's West Coast scheme. West Virginia's Geno Smith is likely to be available for Jacksonville at No. 2. Feb 23 - 12:48 PM |

What I couldn't get over is letting a good LT go when you have plenty of money only to spend the #1 overall pick to replace him. We're 2-14. Have plenty of needs and the Chiefs are going to create a need and use the #1 overall pick on that need? It just doesn't make sense... At all. That's stupid and would be bad management. |

I like trading for Foles and drafting a QB. That means it DEFINITELY won't happen.

Of course they are saying Foles isn't available. Trades don't even become possible until March 12th and you aren't technically suppose to discuss actual trade scenarios between GMs.
It would be stupid for the Eagles to say he is available this early.
