DWinzit Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 Vikings Interested In Eagles QB Donovan McNabb? Some people think today's Vikings-Eagles game at the Metrodome could end up being a tryout for Philadelphia quarterback Donovan McNabb. Vikings coach Brad Childress, in dire need of a QB, was McNabb's offensive coordinator and QB coach before coming to Minnesota. If Childress is back next year, as expected, it would make sense to trade with pal Andy Reid, the Eagles' coach, for the established McNabb, 30, who probably could use a change of scenery. A trade, which probably would cost the Vikings a second-round draft pick, makes more sense than drafting another QB in April and waiting two years for him to develop.

AKM311 Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 Interesting read! Personally, I don't think the Vikings will go for an old qb. I think if they make a trade it will be for a younger qb. Or maybe sign someone like JP Losman. McNabb, IMO, most likely will be traded to the Falcons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would make more sense for him to go to Minny imo Childress being there is one thing but the Viking have a great Oline, they have better talent at WR, and they have a great RB tandem The only thing missing in Minny is a QB If Mcnabb goes there they will be a instant playoff contender imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tr1 Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 I'd kinda be surprised if McNabb gets traded. Though, the Eagles' FO is a bunch of heartless ****s when it comes to older veterans who have played well for them. And if Laurie can save a dime, McNabb will go.

WizSkinsO's Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 They've given up on Jackson already? Funny; in the preseason, Childress seemed to think he'd be the next McNabb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DWinzit Posted October 28, 2007 Author Share Posted October 28, 2007 They could go the route of grabbing a top draft pick like Brohm, Woodson, Booty, Ryan etc..., but is Childress willing to wait on the learning curb! The NFL has a win now mentallity, especially for a newer unproven head coach. There would be a number of teams interested in McNabb if he was ever available!

Hunter_R Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 The Vikings would be greatly improved by even a decent qb. Speaking of those two teams, what are the chances we'll see the 'skins do an onsides kick after their first touchdown and recover it? That was an awesomeplay, though, it could have easily had people calling for the coache's head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred Jones Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 I just hope the Birds don't get a high draft pick to dump him. Interesting to see what happens and it will mean a step back for the Birds for a year to develop their new QB. If they think Kolb is the future I think it is a good move. Kolb has to learn sometime.

pointyfootball Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 I still think he's going to the bears next year. Personally, I think he's worth more than a 2nd round pick, and I have a hard time with the theory that trading a FRANCHISE qb for a potential non-critical position starter is a good deal. Especially when your replacement is unproven, at the most critical position on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
