You have no way of knowing that. You’re just throwing darts at a board too man. Unless you happen to be in an NFL front office.

I do assume bias. We are all biased after all. I’m
Supposed to think banner doesn’t have some bias towards the eagles, an organization he worked for and city he lived in for a long time?

Either way, I stand by my opinion. Saying that Dak’a value is nowhere close to Wentz’s is nonsense. You can’t overstate the injury risks that Wentz presents. Major knee surgery and a back injury. We aren’t talking about minor injuries. That affects his value a ton.
It doesn’t take Sherlock Holmes to figure out that sydla nailed this one.

1. That’s not the point of my post. At all. But the fact you struggle to understand that is no surprise to me.

2. You don’t know that. Wentz hast accomplished any more than Dak at this point. And that is a 100% fact. So what exactly would he be paying more for? Wentz is so damn awesome, his team hasn’t skipped a beat when he was out, in either college or the pros.

He must be the only QB in history that his college program made a national title game without him and his nfl team won a Super Bowl without him. Yet people are still calling him a top MVP candidate.

Just laughable.
Lol. Yea right.

Yep. Most fans don’t call a player’s first MVP campaign “another” MVP campaign, though.

Campaign, because he’s campaigned for it before, through his play on the field. Hilary Clinton wasn’t on a presidential campaign because she lost?

He didn’t campaign for anything. You guys just started saying he was an MVP candidate, only he didn’t win anything.

Your right so far he has only Won the East getting HFA and setting up the team for the SB run. Philly winters have advantages and that year was rough all through December. Not so much temp wise but winds were insane. So you could actually say Wentz has taken the team as far as Dak has without even throwing a ball in the postseason.

*You’re.

You could say that, sure, if you were kinda stupid. Since Dak did the same thing without managing to hurt himself in his rookie season where he clowned the imaginary MVP-to-be you traded up most of your draft to acquire.

There you're wrong, he ended up costing us a 3rd round pick after all trades were said and done... even saved us from horrid contracts while saving cap. I know that you know better ... trades are not always one dimensional and there are always reasons for everything. Don't get upset over semantics, it's not untrue or the whole truth at the same time :D

Not sure how you e managed to convince yourself that’s true, but whatever Philly math you want to use, he cost you a lot more than a late fourth round pick, which was the point.

Well since you seem to know, can you enlighting me on what it cost? Because of shrewd trading from an amazing GM the actual cost was next to nothing. You do understand that there was more than one move involved in all this right?

You traded the 2016 #8 overall pick along with picks #77 and 100 along with a 2017 1st Round pick and a 2018 2nd Round pick. Whatever great moves your GM made subsequently to address the talent shortfall moving up for Wentz created is irrelevant to the argument over what he cost you in the first place.

No its offsets them is what its does. Its a chain of events that all started from one thing and purpose. Who, what, why, where, and when can be used to make it simple. I prefer to use Newtons 3rd law as its more fitting. Can you tell me how even before moving down to 8 was not all one series of events?


Edit: also if they traded their draft away .... How after chip kelly destroying the team year before with trades and bad contracts .... did they win a SB 2 years into the trade. Its supposed to be a 10 year plan right ?

Don’t forget they also gave up Kiko Alonso and Byron Maxwell to Miami in order to move up from #13 to #8.

Wentz was super costly.

Dont forget getting rid of Murray and no it was not costly. Chip gave some bad contracts ... Im sure Howie was loving it as he could see the end was near for Chipper. People liked to make it seem like it was a huge cost ..... but tell me what year did it affect the Eagles in either draft or season? Dont say 2016 same year he was drafted because of new Coaching staff "Rookie HC" and QB. They cleaned up Chips mess by 2nd draft, which was in Philly.
