Just watching SportsCenter and Coach Payton says:

As it pertains to Drew, we feel like we've got one of the best quarterbacks in football. Uhhh, we're definitely...uhhh looking at this 2015 season. We're not...we're not... uhhhh by any means looking at completely overhauling our roster or any of those things...

Do you want him Mc? Or do you think Chip really does?

If he fell far enough, sure. But I wouldn't want Chip to use Bradford as the part of the deal. No one knows what Chip is really thinking (he's quite different obviously), but my gut tells me he really likes Bradford. My gut also tells me he'd love to have Mariota, he just won't give up too much to get him. He wouldn't have to start him from day one.

So basically Chip wants him but, he is willing for him to sit under Bradford's tutelage for several seasons?

Doesn't have to be several seasons. As of now, Bradford is only an Eagle for 2015. Of course if he restructured prior to the draft, that would pretty much take the Eagles out of the Mariota picture.

If Mariota fell far enough and the Eagles could trade up without it costing them too much, then sure. Have him sit for a year as insurance to Bradford's health. Have him watch and learn. If Bradford lights it up in 2015, and the Eagles wish to extend him...so be it. Mariota would then be trade bait a couple years down the road.

This is a far-fetched scenario though. I really don't see it happening.

I'm surprised y'all got id of McCoy but it makes sense though...

It was a bold move for sure. But Chip wants a more of a one cut and go type of running back. He wants power backs. Mathews and Murray are just that. Add in Alonzo at LB all for about the same money as McCoy, and it does makes sense.
