| Based on how the offseason has gone so far, https://www.sdpadresstore.com/san-diego-padres/wil-myers-jersey I thought we were going to be talking about trade scenarios every day for the next month, but that's not going to happen, because the trade went down today!The and that will reunite Wentz with former Eagles offensive coordinator Frank Reich, who's now the head coach in Indianapolis. For the past few weeks, there was no movement on the trade front because the Eagles overestimated Wentz's value by about as much as someone could po sibly overestimate someone's value.The Eagles originally wanted two first-round picks for Wentz, but it seems they finally got hit in the face by reality, because they shipped him off to Indianapolis for zero first-round picks, although I should probably point out that the Eagles could end up getting a first-round pick out of the deal if Wentz ends up playing well in Indy.Is this trade good for the Eagles? Are the Colts the new favorites in the AFC South? Who won the trade? We'll answer all those questions and more in today's newsletter. With that in mind, let's get to the rundown. As always, here's your weekly reminder to tell all your friends to sign up for the newsletter. All you have to do is . 1. Today's Show: Deep dive into the NFC EastIf there's one division that was an absolute disaster in 2020, it was the NFC East. I mean, the Eagles finished 4-11-1 and they were in title contention until the second-to-last week of the season. Nothing screams, "Our division is horrible!" quite like a four-win team being in contention until the penultimate week of the season.The reason I'm bringing up the NFC East right now is because that was the main focus of today's podcast. Over the next four weeks, we'll be going one division at a time to cover the offseason priorities for each team and today, we hit the NFC East. Since Ryan Wilson and I have already repre sed every memory we had of the NFC East in 2020 (it was too painful), Will Brinson decided to ditch us to bring in Cody Benjamin and Jared Dubin.Over the course of the episode, the three guys broke https://www.sdpadresstore.com/san-diego-padres/tyson-ross-jersey down the top needs for the Eagles, , and Washington. The first thing you'll notice is that 75% of the teams are in the middle of some drama with their quarterback situation. The Eagles don't know who their starting quarterback is yet, the Cowboys don't have their starting quarterback under contract https://www.sdpadresstore.com/san-diego-padres/cory-spangenberg-jersey and Washington has no idea who its quarterback is going to be. I never thought I'd say this, but the Giants might be the most competent team in the division. To listen to today's episode -- and if you're a fan of a team in the NFC East, you're definitely going to want to -- . We also have an emergency podcast about the Carson Wentz trade, so be sure check our pod feed today.2. Carson Wentz finally gets tradedAfter nearly two months of drama, the Eagles have finally unloaded Carson Wentz. For the past few days, it seemed like the Colts were the only team really interested in Wentz and not surprisingly, that's where the quarterback is headed after Indianapolis and Philadelphia pulled off a blockbuster deal on Thursday.Here are four quick things to know about the trade:The terms:The Colts will be getting Wentz and in exchange, the Eagles will be getting a 2021 third-round pick and a conditional 2022 second-round pick that could turn into a first-rounder if Wentz plays 75% of the snaps next season. The pick could also become a first-rounder if Wentz plays 70% and the Colts make the playoffs.Eagles financial ramifications: With the trade, the Eagles will now take on a $33.8 million dead-cap hit, which is the largest dead-cap hit in history. If the salary cap is set at $180 million, that means 18.7% of the Eagles' cap will be taken up by someone who's not even on the team.Colts financial ramifications: The Colts are basically getting Wentz of the deal, which means they now have their starting quarterback under contract for just $24.5 million per year. https://www.sdpadresstore.com/san-diego-padres/eric-hosmer-jersey If Wentz can turn things around in Indy, that price is a bargain and sets the Colts up for the future. If Wentz struggles, the Colts can get out of the deal after just two seasons with almost zero cap repercu sions.Wentz reunited with Frank Reich: Wentz and Reich were together for two seasons in Philadelphia (2016-17) and if you're wondering why Reich would take a risk on the Eagles quarterback, it's because the best season of Wentz's career (2017) came while playing for the Colts coach.The clear winner in this trade is the Colts and I don't think it's close. If Wentz is bad, the Colts can bench him and they don't have to worry about losing a first-rounder in the deal. If Wentz is good, then Indy has their quarterback of the future and they only gave up a one first-rounder and one third-rounder to land him. The Colts are also getting a bargain if you consider that they paid Philip River $25 million last year, but only have to pay Wentz an average of $24.5 million over the next four years. For the Eagles, this allows them to move on from their disgruntled quarterback, but it likely means they're in for a long season in 2021 since they'll be dealing with Wentz's cap hit.This trade also (out of 22) quarterbacks drafted in the first round between 2009 and 2016 who are still with their original team. That's a mind-blowing stat that tells you how fast life moves in the NFL.3. NFL Insider Notes: to Carolina not as crazy as you'd thinkI love rumors and one of the most interesting ones that I saw floating around the internet this week is the idea that Deshaun Watson might get traded to the . As it turns out, that idea isn't as crazy as it https://www.sdpadresstore.com/san-diego-padres/rickey-henderson-jersey sounds, and CBS Sports NFL Insider Jason La Canfora explained why in his weekly "Insider Notes." Basically, what this all boils down to is that Panthers owner David Tepper really, really wants Watson and it sounds like he's willing to do https://www.sdpadresstore.com/san-diego-padres/randy-jones-jersey whatever it takes to land the quarterback. Tepper views Watson as a monstrous upgrade over , who led the Panthers to a 5-11 season last year.From JLC: Despite Tepper's interest, JLC doesn't see a trade going down anytime soon. The Texans have been insisting all offseason that they're not going to trade Watson, but that doesn't mean a trade won't happen. If someone blows them away with an offer or if the team realizes that Watson is actually willing to sit out the year, they'd almost be forced to trade him. In both of those instances, a trade would likely get done closer to the draft. To check out .4. GM noncommittal on 's futureIt's not often that you see a two-time winning quarterback get kicked to the curb, but it kind of feels like that's what's starting to happen in Pittsburgh. During an interview on Wednesday, Steelers general manager Kevin Colbert was about Roethlisberger's future with the team. " Ben reiterated that to us that he wants to continue to play, and we told him quite frankly we ," Colbert said.Um. That doesn't sou |
