How many NFL coaches or GMs would have traded Foles for Bradford?

HOW MANY other NFL coaches or general managers would have been willing to do what Chip Kelly did in March?

How many other coaches or general managers would've had the cojones to trade a 26-year-old, Pro Bowl quarterback only two seasons removed from a 27-touchdown, two-interception season for a guy who was coming off back-to-back ACL tears in his left knee?

Zero, that's how many.

But Kelly wasn't interested in what other NFL people would or wouldn't do. After missing the playoffs despite a second straight 10-win season, he thought he needed a franchise quarterback to help the Eagles go to the next level.
