Kolb Wants Out Of Philly?

[Ricky Spanish]

nah, I'm good. Andy Reid's system allows all QBs to do well

[mav1234]

But hows do we lose out and takes teh Luckz ifn we haves the quarterback this year?!

The idea of "just letting Clausen" start makes me ill. If he wins the job against some competition, good, but were those of you who just want us go into the season with him as our designated starter with no real competition even watching last year??

Also, the idea of letting Clausen another year or half a year risk literally throwing two straight seasons in the can. This fan base should be going berserk at that idea. Everyone assumes that you have to either be terrible or great. Sometimes progress takes a middle ground.

If Kolb ends up being the best acquisition for what we have to offer, be it money or what is on the draft board, he makes sense to take. Personally I would rather find someone else, because I'm not convinced Kolb is a long-term answer... but that may be due to my skepticism of Andy Reid's offense.

Philly will never get what they really want for Kolb.

1. No players can be traded without a new CBA, so the draft for this yr will be probably be finished before a new CBA is complete.

2. Any draft picks given away for a player will be next yrs draft after the CBA gets done. I dont see any team give up next yrs Number 1 for any player.

3. Makes me think without a CBA this yrs draft will be boring because team may not be able to trade future drafts.

the only team that has enough picks for trading power would be New England, 2 picks in each of the first 3 rounds.

I wonder if we get any compensation picks without a CBA?

[mav1234]

teams can trade current and future draft picks but not players. We will receive compensation picks for this year based on this year's CBA as far as I know.

[Mr. Scot]

How many of you guys remember how A J Feeley looked before he was traded away from Philly as opposed to after?

If we get Childress as OC or QB coach, I could see us being interested due to system familiarity (they did not work together) but there's no way I'd give up anything significant.

I wouldn't go higher than a fourth rounder, and I'd be willing to bet some other team will offer more than that.

[KDawg004]

If fans want Clausen out as much as they do. Why not offer them Clausen & a 5th or something? Not very likely since Clausen is young, cheap and can still develop into a good QB in the future. But with all the skeptism that he is garbage and done in Carolina it might be worth entertaining. Not a fan of Kolb btw.

[CatMan72]

I'm glad he wants out, no thanks...

[c0r]

matt moore is better than kevin kolb!!1!!1

Bingo. And in it, he's been serviceable and that's about it.

For the people interested in acquiring him: Philly is in need of linebackers, so I would see if they'd want Connor for him, but that's about it. No more major draft pick trades

Then again, if we get a guy like Childress, I wouldn't be opposed to giving Moore another 1 year deal just to see if there's anyway he could improve himself with a new OC/Qb Coach also.

Kolb as a starter... per NFL.com

170/274 1915yds 11td 10 int

81.1 QB Rating

Bradford...

76.5 QB Rating

Again not advocating for Kolb to the Panthers

just wanted to make a point about draft value. :banghead:

Kolb's entire offensive system, from style to coordinator to receivers to playbook, is built for QB success.

Bradford doesn't even have a true #1 in STL, so that argument is a little weak.

I think all our guys could conceivably get the benefit of a doubt like that.

[Pox 08]

I think all our guys could conceivably get the benefit of a doubt like that.

Yep. Because in no way would I even trade Anderson for Kolb. Anderson was one of the very, very few bright spots on this team. Kolb, aside from being in a very qb friendly system, hasn't really done anything worthy of.......well, anything.

[Cat'sGrowl]

If you can get Kolb for a relatively friendly asking price, you have to pull the trigger.

Hands down, undeniable.

I really don't think some people have grasped yet that Andrew Luck isn't coming out..
