Philadelphia has agreed to trade Carson Wentz to the Indianapolis Colts in exchange for a 2021 3rd round pick and a conditional second round pick in 22 that could turn into a first that is reporting from Adam.
Chef.
I think we have been anticipating It is certainly not a surprise.
It is exactly what I think whence wanted.
It is the best case scenario for him again.
I will read it again.
Adam Schefter tweeting.
Philadelphia has agreed to trade.
Carson went to the Colts for a 2021 3rd round pick and a conditional to in 2022.
They could turn into a first.
So we start with the details from the indie side.
I love it.
Love it.
If we're gonna look at this from three different sides, let me to organize my thoughts again.
This is just happening kind of.
As we go.
There's three sides to look at this from There's the went side, the Eagles side, the cold side, the biggest winner.
It all is Wentz.
This is exactly what he wanted.
This this is the best case scenario for him.
He goes to ah, great team, that is 100% championship ready.
He's gonna play behind a great offensive line with really good weapons and outstanding offensive coach.
His games will be in a dome.
They have a championship caliber defense.
Can I say again how great his offensive line is?
That is a tailor made situation.
Add water, and that's a Super Bowl contender.
So if Carson Wentz can recapture any semblance of what he was at his best, the Colts are absolutely a Super Bowl contender today.
So the biggest winner in this is once next is Indie.
I do believe this is what they wanted.
Reich knows.
And so if Reich want, there's no way they do this.
If Reich doesn't want it to happen, so right obviously believes I can make Carson Wentz that guy we saw in 17.
So I believe the Colts are a winner in this, and they're a big winner because of how little they give up.
The overwhelming loser in this is the Eagles.
It's hard to put into words how much the Eagles lose here.
The Eagles had what they thought was a franchise quarterback.
They paid him a trillion dollars.
They basically sat by and watched him tear apart their entire franchise.
They fire the coach.
They create a ridiculously bad situation.
They win a Super Bowl without him.
And now when they finally trade him, they thought they were going to get a Matthew Stafford like package.
They get a third round pick this year, and a conditional to that could turn into a one that is so much less then I have to believe they anticipated and that the world anticipated.
And I'm now going toe enter into the area of conjecture.
This is no longer Adam Schefter is reporting.
This is me.
Supposing I think that went, made it clear through intermediaries, however, that stuff works that India is where he wanted to go.
I have to believe that there are teams out there that would have given up Mawr than the Eagles got for Carson Wentz.
But you don't want to get a disgruntled Carson Wentz.
We've all seen what a disgruntled Carson Wentz looks like, and it's not pretty you want when says Gruntal does, you could get him, and I think that his his three way he's grunt old is to go to Indianapolis.
So the Eagles are unimaginable losers in this scenario.
Look, just getting rid of him, I think to some degree is addition by subtraction.
They had to do it.
But if you had told me when I woke up this morning, what do the Eagle is going to get for?
Carson went, and the answer came back.
Ah, three and a conditional, too.
I would have said, That's a disaster, A disaster.
So is Jalen hurts their quarterback Now we'll see again.
The Colts, I think, aren't absolute contender bordering on favorite when you list the favorites in the A F.
C.
As of this moment, and we'll see where everything shakes out.
There's a lot of moves left to make and a fellow by the name of the show on who could rewrite a lot of this.
But as currently constituted, I put the Colts right there.
It's Kansas City, it's Buffalo, maybe Baltimore and then on the come Cleveland.
And I love everything about this move for the Colts.
I think the culture that good, they have elite coaching elite.
Their general manager is a stud.
That guy Chris Ballot is also they still have money to spend.
Well, I don't know that they do now with Wednesday's contract.
His contract actually is pretty reasonable now.
If he recaptures himself, what's left on his contract isn't that bad.
So here's the first.
Well, I guess Stafford was the first.
Here's the second huge domino to fall in this game of quarterback musical chairs in this in this quarterback carousel, Carson Wentz is an Indianapolis colt Boy, that's really remarkable.
So obviously, the coverage of this will continue all day long here, on ESPN radio and across all of ESPN TV SportsCenter will go on the air in just a few minutes on TV, and you can sort of catch up with what they're doing there.
This is enormous enormous news, whence gets what he wants.
The Eagles, I think, at borderline fleeced and the Indianapolis Colts, I think vault right at or near the top of the list of contenders in the A F.
