The Philadelphia Eagles have traded starting quarterback Sam Bradford to the Minnesota Vikings for a 2017 1st-round selection and a 2018 2nd-round selection. This trade comes after Teddy Bridgewater's ACL tear this week in practice.
The Eagles are expected to start Chase Daniel, who is familiar in Pederson's system from Kansas City. Carson Wentz, the number 2 pick from this draft, is expected to be the backup after he's done nursing a rib injury. Philadelphia was named the host of the 2017 NFL Draft this week without a 1st-round pick, giving their own up in a trade, but they took care of things.
The Vikings, of course, are expected to start Sam Bradford with veteran Shaun Hill also being an option. Bradford signed a 2-year deal this offseason, which transitions to Minnesota.

Correction... The Eagles will start Carson Wentz if healthy. That's dumb, in my opinion at least. Chosen One What's your thoughts on all this? The trade and all?

I am absolutely ecstatic! Basically got Wentz for free now. A potential franchise qb and a free 1st round pick plus a little extra? Sign me up!

He only had like 24 pass attempts in the preseason and now is gonna start his first game coming off of rib injuries? I don't know man... If this was Dallas I'd be disappointed with the decision. The trade was a steal, but at least start Chase Daniel for 4-6 weeks.
