Guest Need4Sheed Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 Key points: 1. Reid finally changed his stance and said they are listening to offers for McNabb. 2. Teams that offers have been discussed with are the Bills, Raiders, and Rams. 3. Rams apparently are offering the 33rd first round pick. 4. McNabb said he still wants to play in Philly but if something is going to happen he is asking that it happens sooner than later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phightins Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 Sounds like the McNabb-to-Rams trade has a very good chance of happening. Donovan McNabb could be in a Rams uniform by the end of the day, possibly by the end of the week. The Eagles have an offer on the table that would give them St. Louis' second-round draft pick (33d overall) in exchange for McNabb. That deal, however, is "not yet completed," according to a league source. McNabb would be willing to go to the Rams if he was given a contract extension, according to a source close to the situation. He would not be willing to play for Buffalo or Oakland, two moribund franchises that might be willing to take McNabb without an extension. http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/inq-eagles/McNabb_to_the_Rams_on_the_table.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smitty Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 I'm probably gonna get LOLed at for this, but....what if Reid decided to select Tebow with that pick? How would the rest of my fellow Eagles fans feel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smitty Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 In all seriousness, though...I'd rather see what they could get out of the 49ers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Need4Sheed Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 I'd be pissed. Really pissed. They need to package that pick and their 1st rounder to get higher in the draft. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phightins Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 (edited) If St. Louis accepts that I'd be very happy from a football standpoint (obviously I will miss Donovan a lot). I really don't see them getting anything more than that. And St. Louis's 2nd round pick is essentially a first round pick, haha. What I don't understand is why Donovan would want to go to St. Louis, although he has a past with their offensive coordinator, and of course Spagnuolo.

Guest Need4Sheed Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 If he goes there is has to be somewhat pissed because it's obvious that teams is at least 5 years out of being a contender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fly3rs18 Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 The Eagles have an offer on the table that would give them St. Louis' second-round draft pick (33d overall) and free safety Oshiomogho Atogwe in exchange for McNabb. That deal, however, is "not yet completed," according to a league source. same article as before, i guess they added in the safety late but really hope this goes through, i would be very happy with it. they would get essentially a first round pick as well as a starting safety. i dont know a lot about atogwe, but i think he is supposed to be a very good safety and is only 28 i love this trade, but i want to see reid talking to other teams like san fran also and try to get them to offer something better and compete with st louis. reid is usually pretty good with that, so we can only hope he makes the right decision and pulls the trigger at the right time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fly3rs18 Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 and there is a poll on the site with that article that asks if the eagles should do that trade and right now it is at 76% yes and 24% no Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smitty Posted March 24, 2010 Report Share Posted March 24, 2010 DO IT. Been wanting Atogwe in Eagles green since he was put on the block. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Artesticle Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 The St. Louis rumor is basically BS. McLane made something out of nothing. That being said, I definitely feel better about Donovan's chances of being traded now, than I did before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Need4Sheed Posted March 25, 2010 Report Share Posted March 25, 2010 ESPN's Sal Paolantonio believes the situation in Philadelphia has reached the point where Donovan McNabb "can't possibly succeed" in 2010. Sal Pal pointed out that the Eagles made McNabb "the lamest of lame duck quarterbacks," alienated him, and "undermined his moral authority in the locker room" by not extending him beyond 2010 while entertaining trade talks. The situation appears to be beyond fixing, and McNabb's comments indicate that he's ready to move on to a new team. The 49ers may be emerging as a "darkhorse" candidate.http://espn.go.com/blog/nfceast/post/_/id/12317/podcast-paolantonio-on-donovan-mcnabb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Need4Sheed Posted March 26, 2010 Report Share Posted March 26, 2010 Now the Eagles are stating they want a top 42 draft pick for him. Ya know, this just shows how desperate they are at this point. They really burned all bridges at this point with him and waited too long IMO.
