The GM for philly Howie Roseman just stated in an interview that he feels teams aren't going to give them fair compensation for Wentz, he pointed out that Wentz is a proven winner, still has great physical tools and is a great leader in the locker room.

If he's all that, why you trying to get rid of him?

Cause Wentz is refusing to play there and disgruntled per Eagles fans.

Heard he was also upset that his GME stock purchased last week for $450/share is now trading below $50. He doesn't think he is being fairly compensated for a stock he pointed out was such a big winner just a week ago.

Well yeah, because the Eagles have publicly been desperate to trade him. Roseman really fucked this whole thing up in a big way.

Maybe if he stomps his feet and holds his breath.

Yeah, he's so good, they drafted a QB last year who then replaced him in the midst of a playoff race.

They're clearly desperate and going against time with that $10M bonus due soon. Their best bet would've been to fix the relationship if they didn't want to be in this situation, but it's a little too late for that.

If he want 2 1sts, throw in Fletcher Cox , Goddert along with Wentz I’ll give him 2 1sts for that.

I think roseman is finding out no one is buying his schtick.

In addition to making a mess of the eagles, we should also congratulate roseman on doing something else that we all thought would be nigh impossible:

Make Ryan Pace look good and patient by comparison...?

Good. This means that Pace is finally playing the game and not be played.

He was bad last season.

He wants out.

You need the cap relief.

Howie, that is why no one is meeting your price. If I was Pace I would lower my offer.

This fiasco reminds me of how Belicheck could’ve gotten more instead of a 2nd round pick for Jimmy G. Bird in a hand is better than 2 of a feather.
