It didn't take long for major news to break at the start of free agency, when a bombshell was released that Eagles QB Nick Foles is being dealt to the Rams for QB Sam Bradford.
The draft pick details:
| Eagles get | Rams get |
| Sam Bradford | Nick Foles |
| 5th round pick in 2015 | 4th round pick in 2015 |
| 2nd round pick in 2016 |

Foles had a breakout season in 2013, throwing for 27 touchdowns and 2 interceptions, leading the Eagles to an NFC East title. In 2014, the Eagles went 6-2 in games Foles started but his play fell off, as we noted in detail back in January.
Bradford has a cap number of $12,985,000 in 2015, according to overthecap.com. The Eagles would not suffer any cap hit whatsoever if they traded or cut him.
We'll update as we learn more. And yes, I'm just as confused as you.
