KC Joyner: Kolb Not Worth A 1st Rnd Pick - ESPN
"After running Kolb's metrics for the 2010 season, I'm beginning to be of the mindset that he isn't worth a first rounder. He's got talent and some experience but he's making bad decisions at a very high rate. If that happens in an Andy Reid offense, it is easy to imagine a total like that increasing in a more high-risk offense."

Lehigh University would like to know by around June 1 whether the Eagles are coming for training camp this year, dean of athletics Joe Sterrett said this week. Eagles president Joe Banner said yesterday that right now, the team is preparing for a normal spring and summer, including training camp, as unlikely as that might seem with the NFL in lockout limbo.

Again Joyner with this football scientist crap. I think he needs to get a real job.

Joyners a shmuck.

Give Kolb a decent O line and i believe he’ll be an ok QB somewhere,and definitely 1st round material as far as trading him goes.

The Eagles pass more than any team in the league. Hard to imagine there are a bunch of teams out there that are less conservative.

That's what I thought.

And the Eagles go downfield a lot more than average too.

And I hope like hell camp is in Lehigh, not at NovaCare. Lehigh is such an awesome venue. If you’ve never been there for camp, I highly, highly recommend.
