vike daddy Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 The moment General Manager Howie Roseman announced the Eagles wouldn’t use the franchise tag on Nick Foles, the Jaguars became the favorites to land the quarterback in free agency. Alas, it appears Foles is headed to Jacksonville. Les Bowen of philly.com reports a market for Foles “outside of Jacksonville has not developed” and the Jaguars “absolutely expect” to sign the former Super Bowl MVP when free agency opens March 13. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2019/03/03/report-jaguars-expected-to-sign-nick-foles/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calvert28 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 Honest to God I was afraid the Giants were gonna try for a surprise move and sign him. I'm glad he's out of the East. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean he is better than Eli...... Bit really it’s not about being “scared” of him but we just don’t want our Super Bowl hero wearing a Giants or Redskins jersey. That is just wrong.....

kingseanjohn Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 Good for Nick. But I don't see this working out like the Jags hope. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If true, that seems pretty weird, doesn't it? I mean...I can see the Giants wanting a rookie for Eli to mentor, but the Redskins didn't want Foles? Huh. 6 minutes ago, kingseanjohn said: Good for Nick. But I don't see this working out like the Jags hope. I don't know. Don't you think he helps to immediately turn that team around? I realize they're going to be forced to cut some guys, but there's still a lot of talent there. Plus, they get a starter without having to draft one.

They're missing the most important piece and that's Andy Reid or Doug Pederson. I don't have faith that Marrone/DeFilippo can put him in a position to succeed.

pwny Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 Can’t wait for the new front office and coaching staff next year. They’ll probably suck too, but at least they won’t be these idiots again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't give that credit to DeFilippo. While a half-season and a year here and there isn't a big sample size, his track record doesn't look good atm.

Kiwibrown Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 Foles should be better for them. They will need more guys on offense though. Dede Westbrook is probably their best wr going into next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
