Not sure what good a move like this is for the Rams. It's not as if they are close to a playoff team and McNabb is not exactly young.

 

I am guessing its his team for two years until Bradford is ready to roll, assuming they do indeed draft him.

 

Besides, having McNabb and SJax in the backfield isn't all that bad.

puzzling move for both teams, if you ask me

 

How so for the Eagles?

 

They grab, basically, a #1 pick, and a Pro Bowl-caliber safety to fill a glaring hole and replace Dawkins....for a QB who's time had passed here in this city, who they would have lost for nothing after this coming season, and who was blocking the development of their future, Kevin Kolb.

Yahoo report says nothing has been agreed to and that offer is only for the pick, no mention of Atogwe. Also says that reports have the Raiders and Bills also possibly making offers.

and there is this:

Devaney on Philly trade rumors: “Absolutely false.”

By Jim Thomas

St. Louis Post-Dispatch

 

ORLANDO, Fla. _ St. Louis Rams general manager Billy Devaney said reports Wednesday by the Philadelphia media that St. Louis was offering its second-round pick and safety Oshiomogho Atogwe for Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb: “Absolutely false.”

 

Devaney added: “It’s utterly ridiculous. I haven’t talked to Philadelphia about any of their players.”

 

Another Rams source said of the Eagles, “They may have a trade offer, but not from us. Why would we trade for McNabb and then go watch Bradford throw on Monday?”

 

Oklahoma quarterback Sam Bradford, whom the Rams are considering with the No. 1 overall pick in the draft, has his pro day on Monday.

 

Atogwe currently cannot be traded since he’s not under contract. He was given the lowest possible tender as a restricted free agent, but has not signed that tender.

McNabb doesn't want to go to Oakland or Buffalo....but maybe Kolb will..

What a joke.

 

I'm listening to the NFL on Sirius on my way to work at 8:15 and Peter King is talking about what the Eagles could do with their QBs. He suggests this exact trade. Word for word.

 

So either some Philly writer is taking something and running with it or King knew something no one else did and accidentally let the cat out of the bag. I'm guessing the former, not the latter. :wacko:

King has become synonymous with bullsh1t and i'll add PHI radio to the list.

 

agree

 

King was just speculating. Philly radio on the other hand is a joke. I would never report anything I hear them say unless its a fact

Its not just Philly radio. A lot of the media now are no-talent hacks who throw out endless speculation in hopes they will eventually hit. Being reputable and accurate have taken a back seat to being first and it sickens me. And its not limited to just bloggers and small-timers. ESPN is as bad(or worse) than anyone. Ed Werder (in particular) should be ashamed of himself :wacko:

Why? because they report the same rumors we report (and enjoy discussing) here? because it makes good radio to talk about all the potential deals that are being discussed? who wants to hear "just the facts"?

 

I'd rather know about every single trade talk that might have gone down, rather than just listen to them report the outcome.

 

makes life a lot more interesting when we can discuss the "what ifs", dontcha think?

What if the Eagles actually had a Lombardi trophy, how annoying would their fans be then ?

 

You're right, that is fun !!!!! :D:wacko:

The Eagles should trade the bum. He is no more good there anyhow. On the second thought keep him, it will make winning the division that much easier.

 

Eagles are on the down swing and I can't think of a better way to get the ball rolling faster then to create some confusion with the fans and brass while shaking up the locker room a bit.

 

Go Philly, Go shake that tree.......... :wacko:

Imagine the hoopla if we had a rapist as a QB :wacko:

 

O.k., now it isn't quite as fun. :D

 

It did make me think of a funny sequence from Jeopardy on SNL:

 

Alex Trebek: "Sean Connery, please pick a category"

Sean Connery: "It looks like the day is mine. I'll take the Rapists for 200"

Trebek: "That is 'Therapists', not 'The Rapists'

 

:D

Joke was stolen from a Three's Company episode.
