Re: Cardinals give up huge bounty to acquire Kolb
I'm guessing the Eagles have a decent backup plan if they are willing to move Kolb. I know they got a nice haul in return for him, but there is no way Vick plays all 16 games. They must have a Vince Young or someone else in mind that can be a capable backup, because betting on Vick for a full season is crazy.
On the Cardinals end, they had to do something. They are in a very winnable division and there quarterback play was pretty bad last year. And while they had to give and good young player and a high pick to get him, this is the state that the NFL is in right now. Teams are going to overpay for any kind of quarterback that has any chance of being a solid starter.
