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. |

This draft is these guys chance to show that things will be done differently than in the past.
If we trade for a backup, nothing has changed. Foles is to Reid/Dorsey as Cassel is to Pioli. |

the new guy shows up and wants 'his' backup instead of going to the one ****ing place you should for a QB: the first round of the draft...it's the same stupid shit, doesn't matter who is doing it foles wouldn't be a first round pick this year...it's embarrassing

But the new regime doesn't. What the previous one did, likely has no bearing on them. |

What a difference four years make. Pioli was defended to the death for a pulling a Carl-lite, since Pioli isn't even worthy of sniffing early-90s Carl's jock.

IMO, trading for Foles is a last resort option.
I'd rather see the Chiefs acquire Smith or Flynn along with a developmental prospect because if they trade for Foles, he gets two years to prove he doesn't suck ass. And that's most likely, two years too many. |

If I'm being frank, I don't really want any of the three. But if I'm forced, I'd probably rather go with Smith for these reasons, but I think whoever we bring in is gonna get 2 years.

Face it, if they bring in somebody with a name, that person is most likely going to be "the man" for the foreseeable future. |

We have no idea what Reid and Dorsey will do. He has been known to do a 360 in every draft.

To me Alex Smith for a 4th is great if Geno Smith is the #1 pick. We know the odds of a 4th round QB producing like Alex Smith arent great. |

I dont think this is a fair statement to make. For starters Foles has more upside. If they trade for Foles and draft a Qb in the draft its different. If they hit on free agents and draft picks its different too.
