That's the price of getting a QB who will play well for the most part but choke at some point.

I'd actually be careful about McNabb, he's had to battle injuries since 2005 IIRC...

Hello? It's Snyder... Duh?

And Campbell looks quite average to me.

First rumbles of McNabb-to-Raiders trade terms emerge

Posted by Mike Florio on March 25, 2010 6:37 PM ET
Every once in a while, we develop a tipster who builds a track record of providing tips that end up being true.

And one of our latest tipsters who has been accurate with past tips (for the most part) has now given us a tip regarding the trade terms that possibly would send Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb to the Raiders.

Per the tip -- uncorroborated but nevertheless intriguing -- McNabb and cornerback Asante Samuel would go to Oakland, and cornerback Nnamdi Asomugha would go to Philadelphia.

We don't know whether an offer of this nature has been made. We suspect that the Eagles would, at a minimum, want to replace Samuel with Sheldon Brown.

Anyway, stay tuned. This is all uncorroborated, but we know that our friends in Philly are desperate for information, and that our friends in Oakland are desperate for hope.

Rumor is now McNabb and Samuel for Asomunga. Which would be a steal for the Raiders, so I can't believe that's accurate.

Dear Jesus,

Please Baby Jesus do not send me to Oakland.

Your friend,

Donovan.

Steal? Really?

The Eagles get 28 year old Nnamdi Asomugha, possibly the best cornerback in the league, for an aging QB that's no longer welcome in Philly with one year left on his contract plus Assante Samuel?

I think the Eagles win this one.

Jason La Confora also just said on NFL Network the other team with the most interest is the Bills

If I'm the Eagles.....I'll take a 4th or 5th round pick as well.

Honestly....I don't know if they'd go for it....but I'd give up McNabb, Sheldon Brown and a 5th round pick for Nnamdi Asomugha.

I disagree Asomugha set his contract up so he can bail with Oakland getting nothing when his contract is up. They need to move him for somthing while they can IMO~

This is the rare example of a trade that would be pretty good for both teams.

Ultimately, Philly wins this deal, but Oakland gets a 2-3 window to put together a couple of legit runs.

I expect McNabb will be an Eagle this year.

Well, it's a win-win for Asomugha and a lose-lose for Oakland.

Asomugha wants out of Oakland. Whether it's this year via trade or next year via free agency, he's gone.

McNabb has one year left on his contract and isn't likely to return to Philly after 2010. He'll hold the Raiders hostage or walk.

So either way, the Raiders are looking at two players holding them hostage. McNabb needs a job and is 34 years old. Asomugha is 28 years old and would be closer to his home in the South. He'd also be closer to a major media market (New York) and as sharp as he is, he's likely to move to broadcasting after he retires.

The bottom line is that the Raiders could make the trade and still only have McNabb for a year AND lose maybe the best cornerback in the game.
