Re: Prospects for McNabb in Minny
Why do we need a new thread about a player who is no longer here?

Re: Prospects for McNabb in Minny
I'd rather read about John Beck's prospects here in Washington. No offense but nobody is going to give much of a crap about McNabb's prospects in Minny, most of us have already moved on.

Here you go...

Re: Prospects for McNabb in Minny
I like McNabb and wish him well in Minn. I believe the offensive system there is more similar than dissimilar to Reid's so maybe he'll feel more comfortable right off the bat?

Re: Prospects for McNabb in Minny
Just a guess here - - but I think he would prefer never to think of his season as a Redskin too.

I will admit I'm still curious to know if that tidbit I read about Kyle Shanahan warning his dad not to trade for him is true. But then again we'll probably never know.

There are more than a few "sources who refuse to be identified" who say that Kyle Shanahan did NOT want to trade for Donovan McNabb before the trade was made and that he was convinced that McNabb was not going to play QB the way he wanted it played after the first or second practice with McNabb. That is not "proof" but there are enough of these "anonymous sources" that I believe that Kyle Shanahan was against the trade from the time it was first proposed. Just my opinion...

Re: Prospects for McNabb in Minny
Wow, look at how depressed he looks. What did we do to him?
