Dave Spadaro, Philadelphia: Donovan, if you weren't a football player what do you think you would be doing?

SportsNation Donovan McNabb: I would be sports broadcasting.

[ice grillin you]

Mike (Manassas, VA): Donovan, Do you think you will be less inclined to run now after your injury or will you play the same way?

SportsNation Donovan McNabb: I'm rushing for 1,000 yards next year. I'm going to break Mike Vick's record next year. No, I'm not running at all. I'm just playing.

Nevermind. Please delete that post. I'm sorry I asked. Make it go away.

whats the chances of us going after a receiver in the draft, within the first 3 rounds? I would be more than okay with that. priorities first though I'd like to see FS or SS, LB, RB(Bucks replacement) and WR.

I hope they don't draft one at all, let alone early... unless hell freezes over and someone drops way more than they should.

They currently have a lot of young and/or unproven WR's.  Kevin Curtis is the "old guy", and Reggie Brown and Baskett are probably the only other absolute givens on the roster.  Then, you have Avant, Lewis, Bethel Johnson, and Bloom fighting for 2 or 3 more spots.  I don't see a draft pick at WR having a good chance of improving the team this year or in the near future.

they care and they care a lot

Let me rephrase... they certainly haven't used fan support to decide anything for the roster.

i think Avant is going to be a player! he just has that attitude that he wants to be the best and he goes out and plays every down

Except when he was sitting on the bench....which as it turns out, was 98% of the time.

Sarcasm detectors are on the fritz today?

[Magical_Retard]

There is love for Avant?

[rjs246]

The wide receivers are fine.

[ice grillin you]

There is love for Avant?

people had him penciled in as the #3 wr before curtis was signed and lots of them were fine with it...i guess it comes from heckert and andy always big upping him in interviews...for whatever reason there is a large segment of people out there who think a player is good for no other reason than that he was drafted by the eagles

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

The wide receivers are fine.

I agree.  Not spectacular.  Not awful.  Fine.
