darin3 Posted February 4, 2021 Share Posted February 4, 2021 Heard on NFLN this morning that the QB carousel continues to spin and the latest name being thrown out there is Carson Wentz. A lot of folks think that the hiring of Nick Sirriani meant that Wentz was likely to stay, but who knows. I am going to throw out a dark horse here.... New Orleans. Saints claim that Winston is "in the conversation" and we all know how much they "love" Hill, but I think Sean Payton would welcome a talent like Wentz into the room. I dunno, just a thought.

He'd be way better off there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Coaches aren't commiting to anything. I just don't know how it's going to happen with all the dead money involved. They'd have to get a ton for Wentz for it to make any sense for them.

darin3 Posted February 4, 2021 Author Share Posted February 4, 2021 With Trey Hendrickson exploding for the Saints, one time hot prospect Marcus Davenport could be available. Eagles love their stud DL and he needs a fresh start himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

League_Champion Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 I'm a Wentz fan and still think he has a ton of football left in him. But dam, I'd have a hard time passing up a first rounder if they can get it, especially if they are in full rebuild mode. I'm still not sure how the dead money is going to work though. Sometimes it's cheaper to keep her. https://www.bleedinggreennation.com/2021/2/5/22267980/eagles-news-philadelphia-received-aggressive-trade-offers-carson-wentz-news-quarterback-rumors-nfl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not at all. there's been some discussion on the boards about other QBs & possible trade prospects. Davenport has woefully underperformed though, so I don't know how much value he still holds. Winston is also a free agent, so he wouldn't be included in a trade. Honestly, I think it's mutually beneficial if Winston stays put and I think he starts for us next year. I would personally much rather have Wentz, I just don't see anything happening with the Saints though given the bar that's been set with the Stafford trade.

Wolverines Fan Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Don't know how reliable this guy is. Could just be a rumor. Wentz to Chicago? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Def. Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 A Colts landing would make me feel a little more hopeful about my RFA $ investment in Wentz last offseason for my QB-less dynasty team. Wentz going to Chicago would be a disaster for both sides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

League_Champion Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Ouch! That's gonna suck. "The Eagles would incur an NFL-record $33.8 million dead cap charge if they traded Wentz, but their cap picture beyond 2021 would look much better than it looks now, and Wentz’s cost to the acquiring team wouldn’t be terribly expensive for a starting QB. The new team could opt out after two more years and about $47.4 million". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whomper Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 I would love if he got traded. I have both of them in my dynasty league Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gopher Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 Maybe they could swap DL's Davenport and Barnett in the deal. Both have sucked and could use a "fresh start." Hell, now that I think of it, let's throw in Tre'Quan Smith while we're at it. That dude is about to win the annual "Jermichael Finley" (about to break out) award for about the third year running.

tazinib1 Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 If Roseman thinks he can get anything remotely CLOSE to what Detroit got for Stafford, he's been smok'n some serious crack. He'll be LUCKY to get 1 1st. Personally, I like Wentz but it's clear he's not wanted in Philly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially since the team taking his contract will owe NO guaranteed money and can release him at anytime. The Eagles will be eating all the dead money. That alone will cost someone's a first rounder. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
