    I’ve been waiting for him to make a deal with Philly since he became the Jets GM. I’d take any of them for the right price because even an average CB is better than what Maccagnan left the Jets with.

    Waiting for him to just wait it out and pick some garbage off the waiver wire.

    At this point I'm fully immersed in the irony and there is no going back.

    “Knowing” the per year amount without any details on length, bonuses, guarantees, etc... is nearly worthless. I’ll be interested in actual news once confirmed details are available, not Mike Lombardi start a tweet with “if” of all things...

    Also, a top five salary =/= top five player. I don’t get why people don’t understand this.

    It should though. That's the thing.

    It’s not possible for it to work though. Top five players can and do change nearly every year.

    Yeah but if you havent ever been and never will be then that's different haha. We arent talking about Brees or Mahomes, more like Stafford and, well, Dak haha

    The rivalry is back on

    It’ll never happen, because there are at least 2 or 3 teams every year who would be thrilled to have the opportunity to pay a top 15 QB like a top 5 QB (see: the Kirk Cousins FA saga). It’s not like it’s just isolated bad decisions on a few mediocre QBs

    Easy to say stuff like that in hindsight. He could end up being a top five QB. Maybe, maybe not. Signing a player to their first long term contract is nearly always a gamble.

    This was @CarpetElf to be clear.

    Honestly if Dak gets more than $30M AAV I can with a straight face say I’d rather have Foles for $26M

    It was said not in hindsight too haha. Stafford contact was mad dumb.

    I still need to see Foles play without the best roster in the league to see how he is now. How long is his contract? Guaranteed?

    I mean he didn’t exactly go to a bad roster. We lack WRs but he did in Philly too until his last year.

    4/88/50 basically...Id be stunned if he plays the 4th year on the deal though, either cause they'll hvae to pay him a top 5 deal or he'll get cut

    But yeah, Id rather have a top tier starting T or G for the money saved on Foles v Stafford.

    Sure, I wasn’t dissing the Jaguars at all. I’m curious to see how he does. I just know I’d rather have Dak, even at ~$4 million more a year.

    The Eagles were not the best roster in the league.

    I’m referring to 2017. If not #1, then at least top 3, right? Surely you can agree to that.

    The rivalry is back on

    The preseason is a good reminder of how much better Dak (or Stafford, etc) is than their team’s next best option, or the best QB you could reasonably expect to be available to replace him

    Yeah, that’s a whole other side to signing Dak now. Another option is to tag him, which removes our ability to use that on a different player we’re not as certain about. Another option is waiting for him to either hold out or play as well as we’re hoping and end up costing more. Or he walks and we pray we find someone as good as him. It’s not like there’s another QB as good as him available for the same or less money out there.

    Even in 2017, their secondary and linebackers stunk.
