I hate Kolb. But give him credit. He is the first QB in history to have his first two starts be back to back 300 yard passing games. Not to mention he has won offensive player of the week twice in the NFC in 6 or 7 starts. That is impressive. I think whichever team trades their first for Kolb will get an average starter, but I give him credit for his production when the team needed him to hold the fort until Vick (and McNabb in 2009) came back. He was a good soldier about being the backup. I’m pretty sure Kolb has outplayed the two big name QBs in his draft class already (Quinn and JaWalrus). And this coming from an Eagles fan who hates Kolb. Don’t be ignorant and compare him to Brady Quinn. I know I’d take Kolb over the “golden boy” in a heartbeat

Kolb has played more, obviously, but he’s already rung up a concussion as well as a few poor starts. Flynn only has the one start but played very well, has a winning track record from college and has backed up one of the better QBs in the league. I think they’re both worth a 2nd rounder at best.

Thought the same thing. And I’ve been a Vikings fan for 34 years.

All the same, it might be a while now before we can do better than Kolb. Save me, Jeebus.

Think about it. No team is going to advertise to the media that they are going to give their first round pick up for a player they want. That doesnt make any sense.

So, I’m betting in the end that the Eagles get nothing more than a second round pick for Kolb, and that this story is a bunch of bull.

I don’t see any other reason why a team would trade a 1st rounder for a guy who has literally proven nothing; unless you count losing his job to Michael Vick as proving something

he came in for mop up duty his first two years and threw a couple pics. and he threw 4 hail mary pics last season, plus the last game against dallas we rested all our starters and played kolb vs dallas first team, he obviouls played poorly in that game. so his stats look bad. but go back and look at his stats for the games he started and finished, exclude the dallas game. you give this guy time to practice with teh first team and SHOULD be a pretty good qb.

Yes, Fat Andy needs to get a better pick, so he can draft another defensive lineman, sign him to a Banner loving long term deal after 2 years, and when he turns out to be rotation player, say, we need to do a better job there…..

Dude…relax. Do you remember Kotite & Rhodes eras? Andy’s a pretty good coach.
————————————–
No he isn’t, hell Rhodes and Kotite have the same resume as Reid….They won a playoff game as eagles HC…..And nothing more, same as Reid…He’s a horrible game day coach, who the next time he makes halftime adjustments as to how the other team is defending his offense, will be the first, he can’t draft first round playmakers any better than Paris Hilton can. All Andy Reid, Banner, and Lurie….Better known as Moe Larry and Curly are content with is the status quo, and filling their pockets…..This Andy Reid is a good coach crap is getting old….If it wasn’t for TO, he would have never made it to a Super Bowl…13 years and it will always always end the same……

Seriously? You can’t admit that Reid has been more successful than Kotite/Rhodes? He consistently wins 10 to 12 games every year. And here are some first round playmakers for you: McNabb, Corey Simon, Lito Sheppard, Shawn Andrews, Mike Patterson, Brodrick Bunkley. Some fizzled out, some got hurt, but they all contributed and played very well at one point. Plus, when you can find guys like Celek, D. Jackson, and Cole after round 1, you’re doing ok in the draft.

then a CB thats above 5’9 & an LB that is above 23olbs.. then a DT thats not 6ft. doubt any of this will happen.
