QuoteESPN's Adam Schefter considers the Cardinals the clear favorites to trade for Kevin Kolb.

Schefter believes there's "no doubt" the Eagles will deal Kolb, almost certainly to the Cardinals or Seahawks. "Right now, all signs point to Kevin Kolb somehow finding his way to Arizona," said Schefter, "which would make Larry Fitzgerald very happy, which would make the Cardinals an instant contender in the NFC West." This has been our read on the Kolb situation for some time. The return package figures to be a 2012 first-rounder plus another mid-round pick.

Couldn't they just hold onto him until after the seasons over and still get a 1st for him? They can still franchise him so it's not like he can just leave via free agency.

Yeah, it wouldn't make any sense to trade him now since the payoff isn't until next April. Might as well keep him as insurance if/when Vick goes down. Then again, there's a possibility this line will get him killed, in which case the Eagles would get nothing for him.

I have to think if the Eagles are going to move him before the season it either has to be for more than just a first...or maybe Arizona gives up a player like Dominque Rodgers Cromartie plus a 1st.

the risk is that vick gets hurt and kolb comes in and doesnt play well because he either isnt that good or the line sucks and his current all time high value drops

MDS · May 03, 2011, 08:21:06 PM

yea i mean if they can get a 1 for kolb now go on and get it

you can find insurance for vick in the form of matt hasselbeck or something. and insurance means like 1-2 fill-in starts hold the fort down. not take over permanently. if vick is gone for an extended period of time the season goes along with him

Well it seems obvious to me that they should trade the backup that would come in and play well if Vick gets hurt.

Absolutely. Hassleback, Bulger, there's a shtein load of guys out there that could fill in.

You fools do know that no such thing will be happening, right? Get used to the "Eagles are high on Kafka," line.

I heard Henery can throw.

Diomedes · May 03, 2011, 08:59:13 PM

Sweet, he can free up two slots.

im fine with that...whats it matter....the eagles cant win the superbowl with vick at qb...not sure why anyone would think not having kolb as a #2 would somehow jeopardize the season in any sort of meaningful way

Diomedes · May 03, 2011, 09:07:32 PM

So what you're saying is that you like Kafka?

Sucker.
