Yes. We've only had McNabb for a week. Chill people, smart extensions take time to work out.

Absolutely. Allen and Shanahan are not stupid enough to give a 2nd and 3rd/4th for a 1-year rental QB.

He'll be extended and will play at least 4 good seasons here. Remember, Donovan WANTED to come here. He won't settle for a one-and-done either.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't McNabb deny this during the press conference, saying that it was something you people (the media) dreamed up. That is what I got out of watching it, but I may have heard it wrong. ???

I hope I'm wrong or an extension may be harder than if he chose to be here.

It's a sign of respect to the other ball clubs that were looking to trade for him. Apparently our conditional pick was more than most people were offering so that helped us, but you'd better believe he'd rather play here than Buffalo or Oakland.
