Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie, Philadelphia Eagle

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

...almost twice as much, in fact.

Also, get ready for the new company line:
-the Eagles value DE and CB more than any other positions on defense
-the Eagles are starting Pro Bowlers at both DE spots and both CB spots
-you can shut the farg up if that isn't good enough, because they farging say so

[General_Failure]

Even if he's average, that's still a hell of an improvement over last year. Not the best they could have done for that position, but the best they could do for unloading Kolb. If they wind up using that draft pick on a corner because DRC isn't playing well enough, then it was still probably a good deal.

Awesome haul for Kolb.  Now find another safety and some linebackers and we might have a defense.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

The thing that really gives me pause on this deal is that the Eagles could have signed Asomugha or Johnathan Joseph without trading anybody. DRC is younger and cheaper than either of them, but they could have filled the need with arguably a better player on the open market.

BUT WAIT!! You all think that Reid and Roseman are idiots. So, which is it? Does DRC suck worse than last years corners. did 2 idiots get lucky on a deal or maybe they aren't so dumb after all?

Shut up.

If you think Joseph is better than DRC, you need a better vision plan.

Shut up.

Seriously. Getting ANYTHING for Kolb was a win. Wow.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

I'll have to cool it on the schtick. Even the natives can't read it anymore.

But seriously, are the Eagles still in the mix for Asomugha?

[SD]

They should have traded Kolb to Cleveland for Sheldon Brown

[SunMo]

not really, everyone knew he was being traded and it was going to be multiple picks or a player and a pick

[Drunkmasterflex]

  @ getting anything for Kolb, so you would have traded him for a 7th rounder?
