7. Nick Foles, St. Louis Rams
It wasn’t too long ago that Nick Foles had the second-best season of any quarterback in the league.
Back in 2013 with the Philadelphia Eagles, Foles led the team to a division title and posted the best touchdown-to-interception ratio in NFL history while also leading the league in passer rating. If not for Peyton Manning’s 55 touchdowns, Foles would have received a lot more attention for his excellent season.
To everyone’s amazement, Eagles head coach Chip Kelly traded Foles to the St. Louis Rams earlier this offseason.
While he had an extremely underwhelming 2014 season which ended halfway through the season, he is still an intriguing option as he enters just his fourth NFL season.
He has 46 touchdowns to just 17 interceptions in his three-year NFL career. Though he won’t have the stacked supporting cast he had in Philly, he faces lower expectations and a change of scenery.
Foles is worth stashing away as your No. 2 quarterback, with the potential to develop into an occasional starter if the offensive line can keep him standing in St. Louis.
Next: Sam Bradford, Philadelphia Eagles
