G08 Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 Foles does not fit this offense whatsoever. If we can flip him for a 7th I'd be thrilled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a damn solid deal from the team side for an experienced backup. Especially to lock in that low rate for 2 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Statistically, Siemian sucks more. He's not noticeably more athletic or mobile than Foles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually like Siemian as a backup QB. He doesn't turn the ball over and can be a maintenance man if Fields is hurt for a game or two. He reminds me of a Chase Daniels signing.

And realistically, if either Siemien or Foles is playing significant snaps for us we’re probably screwed anyway, just like pretty much every team whose starting QB is out for an extended period of time. In 4 starts last year Siemien led the Saints to 25, 21, 29 and 6 points (6 was against BUF, who had the league’s #1 defense, in a game in which Kamara, Hill and Calloway (plus Michael Thomas) did not play). For a backup QB asking much more than 20 ppg is a probably unrealistic. By comparison, in Foles’ last extended run as a starter (7 games in 2020) we averaged 16.7 ppg, and that was with Allen Robinson in his best Bears season.

WindyCity Posted March 25, 2022 Share Posted March 25, 2022 The fact Siemian is making nothing and has experience is a huge win. We only net 1 million in savings, 2 million if an unrealistic trade happens, but that is something for an essential push on ability. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To qualify for a comp pick, or cancelling a comp pick, your deal has to be for more than 3 million/season. Cheaper than that free agents do not factor in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foles’ career completion percentage is a little higher (62.4 to 58.9), but excluding Foles’ extreme outlier season (27 TD, 2 INT), which was nine years ago, Siemien has the better TD-INT ratio. Their career yards per game are essentially the same (207 for Siemien and 205 for Foles) and career yards per attempt are identical (6.7).

What happens to this comparison after you exclude Siemian's outlier year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
