Rumor: Eagles and Rams Finalizing Trade Involving McNabb

The rumor has been heating up all day

great news! Screw PHILLY

I STILL dont want Bradford. What good is a QB if he cant be protected? He may be the "sexy" pick but a LT would do better in the long run imo. Plus if they did bring in SB what would they do with JC? Grossman was brought in because he knows the O and we all know if they do go with a QB that high chances are he would start day one. JC would be the odd man out imo due to his salary. end rant

Make sense so, Spago could take Suh and have his defensive darling.

I think he might take McCoy before Suh

and I still think Okung goes to the Lions

and I could be wrong on both counts

Ben won the SB without being protected.

Aaron Rodgers took GB deep with terrible protection.

We have had one of the best LTs in the entire league for ten years now. It hasn't taken us anywhere.

We also had a terrible front office that made terrible decisions. One of the main reasons we haven't been successful.

Due to our glaring holes in many areas, I think the best course of action would be to trade down if Bradford falls to us. There should be plenty of teams lining up to take him at #4, if Tampa Bay doesn't trade down with someone first.

St. Louis has determined that McNabb and one of the DT's is the best way to improve their club. Even though he is in his early 30's, McNabb is better than any QB in the draft and the Rams don't have to pass on Suh or McCoy (likely Suh). No one at #33 is going to be as talented as McNabb and the Eagles want to move onto Kolb and get something in value for Donovan before his performance diminishes. For the Skins, it improves our choices at number four. Everyone wins with this trade.

Cleveland could still jump us to get to Bradford. Holmgren has publicly said he doesn't care for Clausen...

If true this means that the Rams aren't 1000% sold on Bradford's shoulder and they are definitely trying to make a playoff run sooner rather than later.
And the possibility of Bradford falling to us just increased, but it still doesn't mean we'll draft him.

I tend to agree but wonder how soon the Rams think the playoffs are feasible, and whether McNabb will still be the right guy to be the starting QB when they have the right playoff pieces together. At first glance, I'm not seeing the advantage for them. No doubt, they'd be getting a talented QB, but the Rams are a team that I'd peg as one that, if it was inclined to trade a second round pick, would want in exchange an established player that is a little younger than McNabb.
