Damn, and Matt Flynn is better than Kolb. GB should be able to get a first out of him easy.

It's funny how the first time the Eagles played the Redskins some people were saying the reason the Eagles and Kolb were throwing nothing but passes five yards and shorter was to keep the ball away from DeAngelo Hall and Laron Landry. Kolb led the Eagles to 12 points against one of the worst defenses in the league. 6 of those points came off a two minute drill when the Redskins were backed up.
Then the next game Michael Vick tore that up throwing right in the area of Landry and Hall. Kolb's only really good game against the Falcons I credit Andy Reid and the offensive staff for their amazing gameplan. Kolb is trash.

http://mynorthwest.com/?nid=292&sid=474512Considering the team and division, I wouldn't be furious about losing a 2012 1st for Kolb. He can't be worse than Matt Schaub.ESPN NFL reporter Adam Schefter thinks the Cardinals -- and to a lesser extent the Seahawks -- are the favorites to land Eagles quarterback Kevin Kolb in a trade once the NFL's lockout ends.
Schefter said on NFL Live on Tuesday that both teams discussed a trade after last season, as did the Bengals and 49ers, who filled their quarterback vacancies in the draft. The Seahawks and Cardinals, of course, passed on drafting quarterbacks.
Here's what Schefter said on NFL Live on Tuesday:
"I think that when the lockout is lifted, there's no doubt that the Philadelphia Eagles are going to trade Kevin Kolb. I think at this point in time, it's fairly certain that he's going to wind up in the NFC West. Right now, all signs point to Kevin Kolb somehow finding his way to Arizona, which would make Larry Fitzgerald very happy, which would make the Cardinals an instant contender in the NFC West, and it would make them the team that they were a couple of years ago when Kurt Warner was playing quarterback, rather than last year when they had the quarterback carousel.
"Kevin Kolb is going to get dealt from Philadelphia, most likely going to be to the NFC West, and right now all signs point to Arizona."

Im sure this is all speculation to get a team to pay more. BUT I honestly dont feel its ridiculous to give up a first rounder for him.
Say it is Arizona, they'll have a top ten pick next year, draft some unproven guy, pay him 80 million dollars and find out he's a bust.
Kolb you get a "veteran" somewhat but a good QB who can come in and start right away and produce for you in. Dont get me wrong, the skins are giving up their first, we will have Beck QB go 2-15 and draft Luck with the first pick.Comment

what is so bad about giving up a 1st roudner for a proven starter? The draft being such a gamble as it is and with the win now type attitude the L has, is this such a bad trade?
Is this more about kolb not being a quality QB then the fact a 1st round pick is being offered?Comment

agree 110% with you.
Id much rather trade for a proven player then draft a huge question mark.
There was talk the Skins were going to move their second rounder for Ocho a few years ago, wish they would have, we draft Kelly and Thomas. How's that work out for us? One doesnt play and the other is with theGiants.Comment

I call bullshit. Reeks of a story planted by the Eagles to jack the price up.
All I have to say is :proveit:

Exactly. I would be happy if we got this guy, even if it means giving up a first rounder. He isnt gonna light up the scoreboard or skyrocket jersey sales for the team, but as it was mentioned before, it will be a major improvement for this team in a very winnable division.
