Eagles are signing former Bills and Jaguars quarterback Trent Edwards to a one-year deal. |

The Eagles are expected to let current backup Vince Young go in the offseason and Edwards provides competition for the backup QB spot. |

I always thought that Edwards had it in him to become a quality QB with proper coaching. His mechanics and arm strength are solid. Footwork and decision making need work.
I doubt that he'll get that in Philly, though. _________________

Andy Reid has gotten a lot out of some pretty mediocre QB's throughout his career. |

Edwards will be TC competition for "Money" Mike Kafka and the other FA/draft pick QB we bring in during this offseason. He is not guaranteed a spot in any way on the Eagles' 2012 roster. _________________

Quick Miami, give up a 2nd round pick for Edwards. He could be your franchise guy.  _________________

Nice, now Kafka has some competition on his hands.
Seems like Philly fans love this 3rd string QB. Whats the deal? _________________

Funny thing is ... McCoy would make Edwards look like a pro bowler. _________________

Actually pretty happy with this signing. Gives us a legitimate backup QB that we don't waste $5M to play like absolute garbage. _________________
