I've stated in previous threads that IF we were to go for a QB in free agency, this would be the one I would want us to get.
If Stephen Ross and Jeff Ireland play their cards right...this might be an expensive free agent aquisition, but quite possibly one well worth it.
Thoughts?

Didn't learn your lesson from the A.J. trade. Kolb is not a good QB. Smoke and Andy Reid mirrors.

We can want someone all we want. How about we wish for a OC and then find a QB. We have plenty of time to debate QBs until we can actually court them but I want to know who is going to call the shots, as we can get them now, and that is going to narrow down the prospects at QB. And No to Kolb, I agree, it's Reid's system that makes him look good.

Mind you, I prefaced all of this with "IF" we went for a QB in free agency...IF. -
That's just how I see it.Georgia Fin likes this. -
I'll say Jerry Jones falls in love with Vince Young and uses the local boy to put butts in his expensive stadium seats and makes Romo available. Ireland and Sparano pull the trigger beause of their ties with him and we have Ray Sherman for OC. The Dallas/Miami Connection continues in 2011.

No more than a 5th. He hasn't shown anything in Philly.

Of the QBs available, I like Kolb the most

My guess is Philly will be asking for a 1st or two Seconds. It's such a risky move, and Kolb doesn't appear to be a high-reward guy.
Not to mention you have to extend him, in addition to those picks. I think the draft is a better option. -
Please stop any A.J.-Kolb comparisons! A.J was never drafted to be the QB of the future, and A.J. was never given the reigns to the starting job at any point, with McNabb being jetisoned. Never! Kolb was supposed to be the guy this year before he got hurt, and then Vick happened. Kolb can play!
I do think it is important to see what the new O.C. brings to the table first, and make sure that Kolb can fit into the system, but Kolb is probably as good as we can get this offseason. If we can, for Marino's sake, let's do it! -
I personally would not touch him, of all the QB's talked about, Orton would be the safest pickup -
I'm also thinking that, a year from now, we will be happy with both. Just a gut feeling. -
early as of yet to over speculate but Kolb is one of many possibilities that will/could emerge
without a doubt he has franchise potential & is ready to step up & start under center
personally, I think the QB issue is more important to resolve favorably than the OC position
priorities for 2011:
QB
OC
OffensiveLine
RB -
i think kolb would be our best option. i say we get him or give henne another year under a new offense. i still think we haven't given henne enough time. he only has one full season under his belt. minus 2 pennington plays and some thigpen plays and a bunch of wildcat crap. if henne doesn't do good next season i'll join the band wagon to get rid of him, but i need to see another year of henne first. if we bring someone in to compete and they win the job, i'm ok with that. i think kolb would be best.

Kolb has been in the league for four year, one more than Henne. To date, he was in 19 games, completed 61%, with 11 TDs, and 14 picks. His career rating is 73.2, and this year he is at 76.1. Now, he wants to be the starter or leave.
Be still my heart, he is the answer. Trade whatever it takes. LMAO.
Oh yeah, think Kolb had "just a bit" better coaching and talent?HardKoreXXX likes this. -
For whatever it's worth, AJ was actually "better" in five games, throwing for 8 TDs and 8 picks. His rating for the two games he played, before trading for him, was an astounding 122. Great move.
Who was better AJ or Pat White? -
Kevin Kolb, Carson Palmer, Kyle Orton
should all be considered
QB should be the #1 priority of 2011
got to step up in the draft or whatever & negotiate without hesitation
we go nowhere without the Franchise QB:butthead: -

Why do we think Kolb would be released when Philly was ready to start him at the beginning of the season? And, then, the only reason he was sent to the bench was injury. No way can Miami trade any more draft picks, period.
One of the flaws that has plagued Miami is they are trying to build a winner in one or two years. Or they think they are only 1-2 pieces away, so they trade draft choices. Thus, Miami has two picks in the first three rounds (while the Patriots have six). -
Friend Da 'Fins:
it is what it is: we need a QB & they are expensive
the Eagles & the Patriots have cleared that hurdle
unfair comparison, we cannot compete w/o the QB
Miami has to step up & go for the big brass ring this year
there are numerous possibilities arising in the NFL & draft
if Miami could attain a pro-bowl caliber Center & a Franchise QB
we could put a team together that could compete in 2011
not too much to ask, very doable. just focus on two positions
& the rest of the offense will step up, in both the run & the pass
only two positions & we could turn the corner -

And Philly is even more insane if they are gonna ask anything more then a number 3 for a guy who has more pics then TD's in his career
Please lord.....no
19 games played
194 completions

Oh look is it a bird, no its a plane, no its................
Chad Henne Reincarnated -

Orton can't stay with a team......hmmmm wonder why
Kolb is Chad Henne reincarnated
Palmer is........................ well Palmer 42-39
Agree with you on the QB.....just not those smhoooes -

If we can't trade because of the labor negotiations then it appears Henne is the way. I need to go cancel my NFL ticket for next year:wink2:
Palmer's being retained because there simply are no franchise QB's out there right now, and mediocre is better then in the cellar
Its ok......Cincinnati is used to status quo -
He isn't a big upgrade at this point from Henne. Both young, have a good arm and have limited success in games and some glaring holes to shore up in their games.
I agree with posters who believe a 5th or so pick would be a good trade for him but sending over a second or a first to get him doesn't give the team much advantage for what your giving up.
I would prefer we bring in Orton to compete with Henne -
