So you include yourself? Or you're just falling on your sword to show your fealty to the others. I love when people who aren't involved in something decide to jump right in with both feet. That really shows your I.Q.Quote:

I’m not rooting for Kenny to bomb. No more than any other backup QB to bomb.
Way to answer the question. All you seem to do on this board is insult people. So again…..why are you here?!?Quote:

I’m just sorry that lack of an OC worth a damn, and lack of a solid OL didn’t give us a realistic look at what his ceiling could be.Quote:

If Wilson plays lights out at least for a year maybe that’ll make up for letting KP go. Maybe the Steelers know something about him that we didnt get to see (Attitude, poor work ethic?). Guess we’ll see.Quote:

A number of people here were rooting for Kenny to bomb while he was still with Pittsburgh.Quote:

Economics matter.

Well, between McKee and Grier I think Kenny has an uphill battle. Grier a vet who will easily pick up the system and McKee a physically gifted QB who has a year in this system under his belt. Neither are huge obstacles for a true first round quality player but I’m not sure anyone would say Kenny was that.
It’s gotten to the point where the Pickett haters and lovers are now debating his Eagles career…
Talk about not being able to let something go…lol
This thread is going to be longer than the fire Canada thread or the fire Tomlin thread [emoji23]Quote:

Will Grier is not good. If he beats Kenny out then yes, he truly was a fail. I think Kenny wins that competition.Quote:

Its obvious some folks on here need Kenny to fail because if he succeeds and makes our FO look like fools it will show we suck at evaluating and developing QB’s.
Careful…the Kenny haters will punch up ample amount of numbers and statistics to prove you wrong likely never seeing Will Grier play one snap with any of those teams…lolQuote:

KDS. Same as Trump derangement syndrome. 3 or 4 people on here have it BAD. Kenny lives in their head every day. :rofl2::rofl2:
I watched him at WVU and live in Carolina so I’m familiar with the disappointment locally when he didn’t live up to expectations.Quote:

No way of knowing until he plays in an actual game for them.Quote:

Being able to have KP count for about 1/3 of that back-up QB cap number was likely more highly appealing than the specific player.
For instance, Drew Lock is hitting the NYG cap for $6 million in 2024. Jameis Winston is costing the Browns $4 million.
$1.9 million for KP is likely what the Eagles were most attracted to when the traded for him.
And if you look at this chart....they are still well stocked with draft picks: https://www.phillyvoice.com/philadel...-picks-future/
Cap math drove this deal. I suspect that the Eagles were in on Desmond Ridder as well. I also suspect that they sniffed around on Howell as well.
Ive nebbed around on some Eagle sites. It look's like a mojority of their fans like the deal they got for Kenny.
Perhaps you weren't around when I signed up genius. Ask all the people why they insult new members when you would assume they should encourage them to join. Secondly, you still haven't addressed the point that I wasn't talking about you. You must have some personality quirk to assume that every comment is about you. Either that, or perhaps you're the great defender of discussion forum members. You see yourself as kinda a hero to them? Mind your own business would be my suggestion. The people who I was referring to know who they are, except you I suppose. I can tutor you on how to tell if someone is talking to you if you wish. Message me privately and we can begin class.Quote:
