Kevin Kolb, Philadelphia Eagle

probably not....but it also cant get superbowl contender good in one offseason either

The Eagles were one ill-advised pass to Riley Cooper from beating the eventual Superbowl Champion.

The Arizona Cardinals remain the favorite to land Kevin Kolb, with conventional wisdom saying they will send at least one veteran player to Philly (and presumably a draft pick) in return.

There has been plenty of speculation about that player, ranging from the highly improbable (Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie) to the totally illogical (Patrick Peterson.)

Jim Trotter of Sports Illustrated has an idea on who the Eagles would like to get, and writes on Twitter that the name "will surprise" you.

So who could that be?  (It's Fourth of July weekend. We could use some random holiday speculation.)

Well, the Eagles are thin at running back and the Cardinals could spare one.  Our best guess is that the Eagles could be interested in Beanie Wells as a powerful complement to LeSean McCoy or Tim Hightower as a guy who could replace McCoy without changing the play calls.

Arizona has a great special-teamer/third-down back in LaRod Stephens-Howling.  Rookie Ryan Williams figures to have a big role.

Looking at the rest of their roster, the team just doesn't have depth elsewhere they could easily trade away.  The Cardinals could afford to give up one of their veteran backs.

hmmmm

My guess is he's traded for a pick (hopefully a 1st) and a backup defensive player.

[Sgt PSN]

Instead of that scenerio, would you rather see them take a 2nd and DRC instead?  This defense has such a surplus of back up players that half of them are starters. 

[DH]

Trade him for a 1st, sign nnamdi, end of story. No DRC needed.

That would be a dream scenario. I wouldn't mind a 2nd and DRC. DRC isn't a shutdown CB but he's still a solid corner. I didn't realize Ike Taylor was 31, that being the case I'm against signing him. If they're going to go that route then they should have just kept Sheldon on the team. And yeah, I realize Nmandi is 30 but he's on a different level.

Mr. Mouthpiece on Sports Final last night said Kolb for DRC and a 2nd
