Peter King is reporting in his MMQB column that the Eagles already have one "respectable" trade offer for Nick Foles. That implies that someone has offered up at least a first round pick for Nick. (It could also be bait to try and lure more bidders into offering something for Nick.) We'll have to see what happens, but I expect to see Nick get moved.
I still think Denver is the most likely landing spot followed by Arizona. (Both Nick and his wife went to college in Arizona, so they're familiar with the area.) The Jets could be looking at him. Todd Bowles (the Jets head coach) was with the Eagles in 2012, so he may still have connections with the Philly front office and he spent 2012 (Nick's rookie season) in Philly. Nick was likely the scout team QB in 2012 going against Bowles defenders. Having a QB who has proven he can beat Tom Brady probably sounds good to Bowles.
Expect word of a trade to get out before the start of free agency. I'm guessing the asking price for Kirk Cousins has a lot of teams now looking for alternatives. A three year, $90 million deal, fully guaranteed, is pretty pricey. The Vikings don't seem to be flinching, but the Jets seem to be backing away. The Broncos just can't afford that price. The Cards seem to be out of the Cousins' race, so it looks like he's heading to Minnesota until proven otherwise. Someone else may jump into the hunt, but based on the posturing we're seeing now, it looks like Cousins will be a Viking.
If the Jets are the team with a "respectable " offer up for Nick, then it would likely include their first round pick which is sixth overall. That's not a bad pick to acquire.
Teams are going to want to have their QB picture firmed up as soon as possible, and then decide whether they have to move up in the draft, can sit tight, or move down in the draft, to get the guy they want. The pricetag on Kirk Cousins has some teams looking elsewhere now and Nick is the next best option. Nick may even be viewed as a better option based on his most recent play.
I think the Eagles would love a bidding war to break out for Nick. Having multiple teams decide he's their guy would be ideal. Leaking out that they've got a "respectable" offer already is likely them trying to add fuel to the fire. The teams that really need a QB (roughly seven of them) all are likely looking at one another and trying to figure out who made the offer, what it could be, and wondering if they should counter? This week could be kind of interesting.
Fly!!! Eagles!!! Fly!!!
