    Should We Pick Up Foles???

    Should we pick up Nick Foles?? Vick is out this week cuz of his concussion... I didn't watch last weeks eagles game but heard Foles did pretty shitty...

    My other option this week is Ryan Fitzpatrick vs Miami. Washington gives up the most fantasy points to QBs in the league

    It's a pretty big risk though..

    I'd probably go with Fitzpatrick over Foles at first glance

    I think I'd go Fitzpatrick. I wouldn't be surprised to see the Eagles continue to self destruct the rest of the way.

    Given those two choices I think I'd go with Fitzpatrick.

    I would go with Fitzpatrick too. He's decent, and Foles is unproven.

    I'd go with Colin Kaepernick over Foles. Just go with Fitzpatrick.

    Either one will give you Fitz, but go with Ryan.

    If you need Foles at all, then you have alot more problems in your league

    He looks to have INT probs. Unless your really down and out I wouldn't bother.

    Foles will be the starter for the rest of the year, his line sucks but he might be OK in deeper leagues, I think he will be throwing often.

    Im in a 12 team league guys so there aren't many options that aren't taken. I was actually offered a trade a few days ago that I'm pretty sure I can still get, which is Romo Sproles and Ingram for Rice. Rice's next 2/3 games are vs Pitt. I also don't have a decent QB lol

    here's my team if anyone wants to give input:

    Vick
    Fitzpatrick
    Ray Rice
    Richardson
    Hillis
    Battle
    Mike Wallace
    Miles Austin
    Stevie Johnson
    Dwayne Bowe
    Owen Daniels
    Jason Hanson
    Houston D
    Miami D

    currently sitting in 1st at 9-1, don't wanna fukk up my season by giving away my good rbs for a qb but im kinda stuck here..

    Nick Foles is a stiff. Did anybody ever watch him at AZ when he got pressured?

    I wouldn't bother now that bye weeks are almost done with. The only was that I would even consider Foles would be if you are required to carry 2 QBs, and even there, there could be better guys available

    He didn't look too good, even on his td pass. Only play him if he's going up against KC!

    No. Waste of space on your roster. Much better options. Id take Tannehill or Fitzpatrick over this guy.

    if your considering picking up foles even as your backup you were probably out of contention by week 5

    Pick up Foles only if you were stupid enough to have Vick in the first place.

    Looked at all available players, and there is literally no one available. The only decent ones are on byes this week or injured. I'm going to stick with Fitzy this week and hope he does something vs the Miami D on Thursday

    Go get Foles, he plays vs the terrible redskin secondary. He has good weapons in Maclin and Jackson. I picked up Foles even though I have Romo, Brady, Ryan, and Freeman. In the league we have to start 3 qbs and with all these concussion issues the more the better.

    Foles didnt play that bad. The matchup looks nice. I wouldnt play any Eagles offensive players in fantasy until Andy Reid isnt calling the plays anymore

    Fitz is a better option over Foles. At least Fitzgerald has a solid o line to protect him and buffalo defense is bad enough to force them to throw passes all game.
