Cutler for McNabb Makes Sense

Many people are sending disgruntled Broncos QB around the league in prospective trades to various destinations that usually end with players like Brady Quinn or Trent Edwards heading back to Denver to fill Cutler's spot. However, we think that there's a much more interesting option for Denver to consider: Philadelphia. The Broncos should call the Eagles and offer Cutler for Donovan McNabb, straight up.

McNabb's relationship with team management for the past few years can be described as tenuous, at best. So it makes sense for the Eagles to make such a move if they get back a young, talented QB that they can both win now and move forward with. The Broncos, in return, get a QB that will be top-level productive for at least a few more years while head coach Josh McDaniels grooms his next QB of the future.

  1. Interesting, though I think you underestimate the relationship between McNabb and the Eagles' front office. They haven't stuck by him for 11 seasons without developing some comittment. That said, his trade value will very likely not be as high next offseason as it is now, so the smart money may be to pull the trigger. I still just don't see it, more because it just doesn't feel right than anything. It makes a certain amount of head sense, but it just doesn't feel right. Cutler's such a douche.
