It's mind bottling.



Roseman can work the salary cap, but drafting talent is far from his strong suit.


Exactly - this is what I've been trying to tell all of you.


Andy Reid chose who we drafted.

BOOM!

Andy Reid is the one drafting these bums, once he's gone you'll see how good of a GM Roseman is.

Yeah that's right. Either way, we waste too much time trying to acquire FA/trade talent, rather than grooming our own home grown kids. Another testament to how bad all of our coaching staff is.

Based on recommendations passed to him by his GM

There is no proof that Reid chooses every pick.

Why do you think the Browns have so many former Eagles? Because they were Heckert guys and Heckert took them with.

Heckert era drafts are distinctly different from Howie era drafts. And final say doesn't mean he exercises complete authority.

Yeh, Reid might have the final say if they are discussing two close prospects

Yeh - he's due like $19m. At the moment he isn't even worth $19.

I will say the only reason I want Foles to get some time is because the way we are going we most likely will be in position to get one of the top QBs next year....and I want to see what the kids got.


Agreed, need to see him for us not to almost for sure reaching for a QB in the 1st round.

17 and he's a goner for sure. Not worth of his contract at all.

Sanchez, Tebow and Vick - that still doesn't make one full quarterback

The contract has a kill switch after the Super Bowl.
YES.
