The plan was always to try to get a pick for Foles if they could. This is nothing new. The question is can the Eagles work their cap to be able to hold him long enough to trade him. They have to be under the cap by the start of the league year.
And people are making way too much out of this Wentz story. A large number of players backed him after this story broke so it's not like he's en enemy in that locker room.
The bigger issue facing the Eagles is their cap. They are going to have to make some really tough decisions and then with 4 picks in the Top 90, gonna have to nail them.
No way of knowing what the plan always was. What we do know is that the team loves Foles. They play better for him. They’re really cap-strapped but are reportedly going to franchise him and let other contributors walk as a result, amid stories that there are issues with a Wentz in the locker room that are at least significant enough for Wentz to publicly address them.
They’re listening to offers for both guys right now.
