The Eagles dismissed any idea of trading their Super Bowl MVP during the offseason when his stock was at its peak. Then it made sense. He still offered them major value as Carson Wentz continued to work his way back from his knee injury. Now with Wentz about to return though, they have a decision to make. The Eagles are going to be in a major salary cap crunch next year with estimates being over $25 million in the red. They may have to unload Foles anyway along with his $18.8 million cap hit. Trading him by the deadline with Wentz back and his value still high should net them something good.
