Chip Kelly

This week the Philadelphia Eagles made a huge trade for arguably their best player. The Eagles traded running back Lesean Mccoy to the Buffalo Bills for line back Kiki Alonso. In six seasons with the NFL, Lesean Mccoy is third in total rushing yards with 6,792 and fourth in rushing touchdowns with 44. As for Kiki Alonso, he may be a no name to most people, but not for head coach Chip Kelly. Kiki played for Chip Kelly at Oregon where Chip was the head coach for many years. Kiki had a key interception in his junior year in the Rose Bowl against Russell Wilson and the Wisconsin Badgers to ultimately win the game for him and then head coach Chip Kelly. Many Philadelphia fans are upset about this trade. Mccoy, or Shady as Philly fans called him, was a huge part of the Philadelphia Eagles and a very exciting player to watch. As far as the trade goes, I believe that Chip Kelly knows what he is doing and made a smart choice. I believe the ultimate end goal is to get quarterback Marcus Mariota, who also played for Chip Kelly at Oregon for a few years and won the Heisman Trophy last year with a very impressive season. He has wowed fans and NFL scouts for years now and he could be the perfect fit to run Chip Kelly's offense. Kiki Alonso was injured last year with a torn ACL but he put up very impressive numbers his rookie year. It is hard to say who really won this trade. As of now it seems the Buffalo Bills came out on top but I'm sure Chip Kelly has some tricks up his sleeve that he will pull out later on in this offseason.
