He would be stupid to want out. Nobody else is going to pay him 12.5 million this season and a possible 22 million next year. Let the Eagles cut him and he collects 22 mil guaranteed.

From what I read, his salary for 2016 is $7M and for 2017 is $13M with a $4M roster bonus for 2017. His signing bonus was $11M which was already paid to him this year. So, he has a very good contract if someone would like to trade. It is a 2 year deal for $24M, with a small base of $7M for 2016. Depending on how much the Eagles are willing to eat of his $11M signing bonus, he can have good trade value. If the Eagles eat all $11M signing bonus he may generate a 2nd round pick. If the Eagles want Bradford to pay back the bonus money, or have the new team pick up some of the signing bonus (if allowed) then his trade value goes down.

Not only we have to pay for Bradford's contract, we also have to give up players/and or draft picks too? lol.

None. I think the Cowboys laughed when the Eagles traded Bradford for that other guy. Sorry the Eagles traded that guy for Bradford*

Can Rod develop him into an edge rusher and give him a cool nickname before the season starts? If so, sign me up!

No chance... we already have the suck box checked at the b/u position.

Hardly no chance. Bradford wants to start.

Plus, there are plenty of Cowboys fans who think Tony Romo is going to shatter into a thousand pieces the next time he falls down. (This despite the fact he played in 62 of a possible 64 games in the four seasons prior to last year). I doubt many want a QB in Bradford who blew out the same ACL twice in 2013-14.

He's apparently pissed and wants out and rumors are he would even restructure his deal to get out.

But he wants to start so it's a non-starter for us.

Further, the Eagles would have to swallow an $11MM cap hit this year if they trade him now. Might as well keep him and let him play while Wentz holds a clipboard.

That dude has nothing to be pissed about. He continues to make ridiculous amounts of money and I still can't figure out why.

If the Eagles come to him and say Denver wants him, would he be stupid?

Of course not. He'd go from starting for a loser to being an instant SB contender.

Other than the Cowboys i would love to see Denver win a SB with Bradford. The feeling watching Eagles fans jumping off of buildings afterwards would make for some good entertainment.

Bradford is the guy who persuaded murray to go to philly, so I hope he has to stay in philly!

The same odds as the Eagles trading the 2nd overall pick to the Cowboys, lol.

Exactly. He has a mighty big contract and the Eagles aren't starting a rookie the first season. They look to have planned this out pretty well. They have Bradford signed till they can get a rookie developed

The Philly FO would be considered filled with geniuses if they managed to offload Bradford and that contract to us.

Chip will offer Philly a first round for him

Oh, and I love that Philly got fleeced in the deal for the #2 pick
