Brandon Lloyd Christmas Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 from Rotoworld: At his Tuesday press conference, Eagles coach Andy Reid refused to rule out a Kevin Kolb trade prior to the October NFL trade deadline. Reid reemphasized that Kolb has "a bright future," but the Eagles are perhaps the most aggressive team in the league, having become even more so since GM Howie Roseman took over this offseason. We have to believe they'll listen to any trade proposals. The Browns were reported to have strong interest in Kolb during draft weekend, and there is plenty of quarterback uncertainty throughout the league. The Eagles will definitely get offers. http://www.rotoworld.com/ hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Califan007 The Constipated Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 I don't see them trading Kolb AT ALL...at least not during this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onedrop Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 please trade him, them let the real vick show up (you know, highlight reel but nothing substantial to elevate the team to the next level) and philthy fans will burn that city to the ground.

TotalRecall Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 No way will they trade him this season. And nobody is going to propose ridiculous offers for him neither. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THEREALTOR1 Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Sal pal said on Mike & Mike this morning, that he guaranteed he would be reporting trade possibilities for Kolb by this afternoon. I'm not real familiar with his contract, but I think he's only got a one year deal, so he'd be a free agent after the season. :whoknows: EDIT: That's wrong. On March 26, Adam Schefter reported that the Eagles expected Kolb to be the starting quarterback for the 2010 season. On April 4, McNabb was traded to the Washington Redskins, making Kolb the starting quarterback. Kolb signed a one-year contract extension worth $12.25 million on April 29, keeping him under contract with the Eagles through the 2011 season.

Monte51Coleman Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 This shouldn't be a surprise considering that they traded away their franchise quarterback to take a chance on an unproven one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiingspadee Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 They know if they trade Kolb it is going to blow up in their face with them trading McNabb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Lloyd Christmas Posted September 22, 2010 Author Share Posted September 22, 2010 from rotoworld a few seconds ago: Anthony Gargano of WIP Radio in Philadelphia reports that Browns officials called the Eagles Tuesday night about the availability of Kevin Kolb. The Eagles said he wasn't available, but we can fully expect plenty of Kolb-to-Cleveland rumors leading up to the October 19 deadline. Browns GM Tom Heckert, the old Eagles GM, is a big-time believer in Kolb, and wanted to trade for him in April. Philadelphia will likely hold onto Kolb as long as possible in case the decision to start Michael Vick backfires. A trade isn't out of the question closer to the deadline, however, as coach Andy Reid all but acknowledged at his Tuesday press conference.

pjfootballer Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 And the Redskins are constantly berated by the media as impatient in their Owner, FO and fans. They gave this guy 3 starts. Jeez what a cluster**** of a FO Philly is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conn Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Wow.......McNabb must be smiling his ass off now. Come to his new team and instantly makes them a contender, and leaves behind....wreckage, and no franchise QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darc Requiem Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 I was hoping Kolb would still be the starter. I was looking forward seeing him twice a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PokerPacker Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 trade him after half a game? I don't think so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoskins Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 I can see how the Browns would have asked (why not), but I can't see the Eagles actually trading the guy. That would be ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianm23 Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Truthfully, if I'm Kolb, I bolt this organization after this year (unless they trade him prior). Even if he does get his starting job back and blows up, I would still leave the Eagles after how they **** on the guy. I'd force a franchise tag and tell them to trade me I'm not signing. No way I would have a coach **** on me the way Reid has and get away with it. Reid has lost all trust from his starting QB by this jackass move, and it's going to cost him dearly in the end. What can you expect from a guy who trades a Pro-Bowl QB to a division rival. Not the moves of a smart man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monte51Coleman Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 I was hoping Kolb would still be the starter. I was looking forward seeing him twice a year. I completely agree. The Eagles are a much more dangerous team with Vick behind center. I would also be surprised if there is any negativity in the locker room due to this decision. It sucks for Kolb but that's about it.

GhostofSparta Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Well let's see, McNabb went for this year's 2nd and next year's 3rd. JC got us a 4th in 2012. So I'd say Kolb is worth roughly a 5th next year after playing for 2 1/4 games (if they're serious). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Excuses Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 Doubt it... not enough sample size to put all your eggs in the Mike Vick basket. I hope they do though but I doubt it. Either way, their QB situation is totally ****ed. Vick is no the answer and apparently they don't think Kolb is either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HailToTheRedskins14 Posted September 22, 2010 Share Posted September 22, 2010 This is just hilarious. Philly is really looking like they're on the downswing. But what baffles me is that they seemed to initiate the whole process. You add that to my idea that Dallas is also on the downswing and will soon be closer to the 2009 Redskins than a Superbowl contender, and it's looking like Washington Vs. New York for the NFC East. How quick things can change in the NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
