Super shuffle? McNabb, Briggs swap makes sense
Quote:
Was the recent drafting of quarterback Kevin Kolb a sign that the Philadelphia Eagles might trade Donovan McNabb before the 2007 season?
That's one theory, anyway. As for a possible destination, the Chicago Bears are ready to win the Super Bowl. They might have won it last year except for a glaring weakness at quarterback.
The key to this scenario is Bears linebacker Lance Briggs, who has said publicly that he will never play for Chicago again and who refused to report to minicamp on Friday.
Briggs is, arguably, the best weakside linebacker in the game and is only 26. He could help Philly rebuild its defense while Kolb gets ready to take control of the offense.

Kolb WAS NOT the best player on the board, I don't care what Reid says about that subject. That being said, there's no way in hell that there will be a swap for McNabb and Briggs. |

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA, only the redskins would trade someone or a draft pick of that value for a weakside LB that may or may not be good because of the system and players around him.

Probably because the guy reminded him of Corn. That was my first thought anyway... |

He might turn out to be good but they did not have to draft him there. They more than likely could have gotten him with their other second round pick. At the very worst they could have traded back a couple of spots.

I did'nt say that Kolb can't be a good or great player, But he's an ill fit for the Eagles offense. It'll take a few years for him to adjust to the system. And the Eagles had other needs to address at round two than a QB. |
