No surprise at all that Kolb gets traded to Arizona.

Very surprised at how much Philadelphia got in return.

Arizona got ripped off! Kolb isn't even that good!

Just had a quick look on a Cards forum, and some were saying how they got ripped on the trade

That's an awful lot to give up in a trade and contract for a guy who is really not much more proven than a rookie.

Suddenly I feel ripped off again on our Cassel trade, lol.

I think Kolb can be a good player, especially that he has Fitz to throw to, but I can't see him worth that much!

So Eagles in 2 off-seasons have traded 2 QBs for 2 2nds and Rogers-Cromartie! Not bad business!

They always say that you never trade franchise QB's. Tells me Kolb isn't a franchise QB.

I don't think DRC is that great, he relies too much on his speed and gets burnt more than he should. That 2nd should be pretty valuable.

I have to give Reid alot of credit. He also has a solid team and has good players. Just can't seem to get over the hump. Never sure why.
