I have to think the cost would be pretty high. Philly would likely use the compensation to go get Mariotta.

I hope the #10 pick is out of the question - unless we are getting Foles and the Eagles #1 pick (#20 overall) - and I can't see the Eagles going that route.

He'd be good competition. I wouldn't be upset with that acquisition.
He's young and talented and has had some success. Sounds like there are plenty worse options.

Consider that Alex Smith's pricetag was 2 #2s.

Sure, Mallett and Schaub were had for day 3 picks - but Nick Foles is a lot closer to Alex Smith than Ryan Mallett or Matt Schaub.
 
will trade for a 3rd round pick. The dude was unbelievable in 2013. Let Foles and Bradford compete for a starting job. The winner get's the spoils and other stays backup!

Edit: May be even a 2nd round pick since Rams can get the 2nd round pick back by trading out of #10 draft spot and regain 2nd pick.
 
I'd send our 2nd and 5th round for him. Me thinks they are looking for chips to trade up for Mariota
Heck, throw in Maclin and we can sweeten the deal
 
Shouldn't cost more than a third. Young and had an inconsistent second year. No where near what Alex smith has achieved before his trade (NFC championship game). Would do it.

A few thoughts:
1] The asking price will likely be pretty high
2] Prior to the injury last year, his numbers were off by quite a bit over the previous year
3] The injury

He's had one good year.

Boy, I dunno... certainly wouldn't "reach" to get him.

Oh... and he's not very mobile and really struggled behind a bad Oline... that sound familiar?
 
Call me crazy, but I'd give up two no.2s for him. He's young, got all the size and arm strength you could ever ask for, and pretty good deep and overall accuracy as well. His decision making gets shaky at times, but Foles can easily be a top 10 QB in this league in the right environment, imo. He works the pocket well, makes plays under pressure, has good athleticism, and is accurate from all types of launch angles, an underrated asset.

We'll probably never be able to get him and O-line and set of weapons like he had with the Eagles in '13, so don't expect a 27-2 TD-Int ratio, but that's a ridiculous expectation anyway.

I wouldn't mind trading for Foles, in fact I'd love it, but by no means do I think we should give up a lot for him.
 
I would take Foles in a heartbeat now what to give up is the question, but he's better than what the Rams have now a healthy Sam Bradford notwithstanding and has not been standing for two years.

If this went down, it would almost have to be a 3 team deal.

#1 overall to the Eagles
#10 overall to TB (plus who knows what else)
#20 overall to STL (plus Foles)

How can Philly deal their QB unless they know for sure they have their replacement in hand?

I'm not crazy about it at all. I'd rather just run Sam out there again.

How in the world could the Rams keep Foles and Bradford ??? I don't think even Demoff is that much of a cap wizard...To me Foles would be an expensive backup, too expensive..Unless the plan would be to cut Bradford..You can't wait too long or the salaries become too expensive to cut at some point...I/m not rally sure what I think about this...I doubt that a trade is viable...

I would be okay w/ Foles, but he tends to hold the ball too long. Just another reason we need to get 2-3 new starters along the OL. JMO
