Re: Philadelphia Eagles

I think the Eagles just used the Inquirer guy to leak a story to get the word out on about what kind of value they are looking for in regards to McNabb. lol if that actually ends up costing him his job but its his fault for being so gullible.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles

I still think (hope) 5 is back next season. They're just not gonna get that much in a trade for him it seems.

This seems to be the most likely scenario.

Box although I don't hope they keep 5 around I'd have to agree with you in that it doesn't look like they are going to get much in return. Wouldn't something have already happened by now if they were getting big time offers?

Re: Philadelphia Eagles

I've been against trading McNabb but I just read that the Raiders have apparently offered us Nnamdi for him! That would be hard to turn down (although not sure who else would have to be involved in the deal). A secondary with Asante/Nnamdi at corner and Brown/Mikell at safety would be beastly. How awful would it be for 5 to have to finish his career in Oakland though?

Re: Philadelphia Eagles

apparently his contract is iffy...1 year for big money and then some condition saying that he has to be paid top-5 money to follow it up? IDK I heard it on ESPN.com and I was really tired.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles

Lol nnamdi for Mcnabb is like the Pujols for Howard rumor for the Phillies. Can't see how it would ever happen but it's obv the snap call of all snap calls.

The one thing we have going for us is that we are talking about Al Davis and the Raiders, so I suppose all manner of stupidity is at least somewhat possible. But still, not even getting my hopes up for this one, as unbelievably awesome as it'd be.

Re: Philadelphia Eagles

Fun hypothetical question:

Would you rather have the #33 pick in the draft (Rams 2nd rounder) or Nnamdi Awesomeua for one year (assume 100% chance he leaves after one year for some reason)?

Re: Philadelphia Eagles

What are the odds the #33 pick in the draft ever even becomes capable of being close to playing at the level of nnamdi for 1 year?

Re: Philadelphia Eagles

Awesomeua for McNabb is a snap trade on a team with a decent enough prospect to take over at QB.

The hypothetical 1 year Awesomeua for the #33... I'd have to go with no, unless you really believe your team is exactly one awesome CB short of winning the Lombardi.

Low, but the #33 is high enough to give you a reasonable chance to get a solid player or a raw talent with huge upside, that you can keep 3-5 years for relatively cheap. Is one year with an elite CB worth passing on the chance to fortify your team for a good while with, say, a DeMeco Ryans or a Karlos Dansby? How about a Drew Brees? It's just too high a pick for a one year guy, unless you know he's the missing piece. imo
