A perfect fit for Kevin Kolb?
Following Donovan McNabb's new deal, Kevin Kolb is left to twist in the wind. His contract, like McNabb's, expires after the 2010 season, which means he's bench-bound for the duration -- barring injury to #5.
I was giving some thought to possible landing spots for Kolb when Gregg pointed out the unlikeliness of a trade happening at this point in the offseason. With the Eagles in win-now mode, what's the point of dealing Kolb when they could probably get the same draft pick for him next offseason?
The motivation would have to come from another team, one willing to surrender at least a second-round pick for the No. 36 overall pick in the 2007 draft. In which case, Philly may be willing to go with A.J. Feely as McNabb's backup for 2009.
The perfect storm may be coming from St. Louis. No longer considered the long-term answer at quarterback, it's not inconceivable that Marc Bulger's August work may have the new Rams regime questioning whether he's even the short-term answer. Even more conveniently, new OC Pat Shurmur was Kolb's QBs coach in Philly, so he already knows the offense. If Bulger struggles out the gates, the Rams could then turn to "QB of the Future" Kolb instead of a retread like Kyle Boller.
The Rams may be the only fit as a Kevin Kolb dance partner this summer. In fact, they're almost a perfect fit.
