Just saw he plans to pay 2mm to eagles to be free agent.
 
Smart move. If your not willing to bet on yourself then why should anyone?

I think he took his lumps early in his career, and is ready to finish among the top at his position.


yeah easy decision. i would venture to guess he will get somewhere around 25 per year with 50-60 guaranteed.

not a bad return on a 2mm "investment".
 
Its a pretty good idea to get off that sinking ship. With their Salary Cap situation and some aging players, I think the Eagles "window" closed when we beat them.
 
Didn't they inform him right after that they were going to be putting the franchise tag on him and attempting to trade him though?

I just had an alert... Hmmmm idk

Which team, in their right mind, would give anything of value to Eagles for Foles if they do tag him? I mean, if the Eagles are dumb enough to play Russian Roulette with their salary cap by allocating $25mil to Foles on the hopes they trade him? If I'm another team, I'm like - here, take a 7th round pick in 2040 for him; otherwise, enjoy your cap hell and we'll pick him up next year when he's a free agent.

That would be really risky for the Eagles to do.

I hope they try it. :hihi:
