Donovan McNabb Trade Countdown Day #38

All the signs are out there that the Eagles are going to make a move at the quarterback position. SI.com’s Peter King says¬† Donovan McNabb has no assurances that they won’t be traded this offseason.

He makes the argument that there are a number of teams who should be willing to ante up a first round pick for McNabb.

He also points out some of the Eagles interest in quaterback prospects to further show that they’re probably gonig to be getting rid of some of their quarterbacks.

Check out this passage by King in his Monday Morning Quarterback.

“I think one of the quarterbacks is going. Where, I don’t know. When, I don’t know. But one last note about the Eagles and quarterbacks: Fordham University, not exactly a football hotbed, had its pro day for NFL coaches and scouts Friday in the Bronx. Fordham has a late-round quarterback prospect, John McNabb throwing the ball Skelton. The Eagles were at the workout with not one coach but two — quarterback coach James Urban and offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg. Maybe it means nothing, but it’s pretty rare for two coaches to be looking at a late-round quarterback — especially when you’re as packed at quarterback as the Eagles are. Unless, of course, you’re planning to jettison one of your quarterbacks before the draft.”

King makes an excellent point because coaches value every second of their days most of the year but especially during this time of year.¬† If Mornhinweg and Urban are up at Fordham looking at a quarterback, there’s a good reason for it.

McNabb’s days as an Eagle are numbered?
