#14 Sam Bradford – Philadelphia Eagles

Newly acquired Sam Bradford will battle for the starting job in Philadelphia this offseason, but based on the talent around him and the price paid in trade he will most likely be the starter. Bradford was yet another high draft pick to find the bottom of our rankings. The first overall selection in 2010 to the St. Louis Rams, the organization had high hopes for the Oklahoma product. However, injuries, lack of impact players and a questionable offensive strategy left Bradford without much to show for his efforts. Tack on his inability to stay healthy and you have a bad combination. Eventually the Rams soured of his poor production and shipped him out for another starting quarterback, Nick Foles. Bradford will look to get his career back on track with the Eagles, but until he proves otherwise, will stay at the bottom of the NFC food chain.

#13 Nick Foles – St. Louis Rams

Nick Foles, the return piece in the trade with the Eagles for Sam Bradford, will slide nicely into the starting quarterback position for the Rams in 2015. Foles was a virtual unknown in Philadelphia until head coach Chip Kelly let him loose in 2013 when he passed for almost 3,000 yards in 13 games and tossed an eye popping 27 touchdowns and only two interceptions. Foles came back to earth last year and was slowed by injuries. He barely broke 2,000 yards passing and his touchdown to interception ratio was closer to even at 13/10. Playing in just eight games, his averages say he would’ve come closer to his 2013 marks had he been able to finish the season. Unfortunately, he fell out of liking in Philly and was shipped out for Bradford as the biggest trade of the offseason. Foles will need to stay healthy and prove 2013 was no fluke as St. Louis has attached their future securely to his arm.
