McNabb traded to the Redskins for Draft Picks:

Donovan McNabb entered the NFL to a smear of boos and
general dislike from Philadelphia Eagles fans. 11 years later, the trade of
McNabb from the Eagles to the Washington Redskins is being praised for no
other reason that he couldn't win the Super Bowl. True, but he's still
better than what's left on the Eagle's roster. Kevin Kolb is truly unproven
and Michael Vick may be exciting to watch, but he's still the best high
school quarterback in the country, it can only get an NFL so far.
McNabb's been treated poorly by the Philadelphia fans because of his
injuries and inability to win the Super Bowl. Listen, Philly fans are
ungrateful, think of all the bottom dwelling teams that haven't had a
quality quarterback. They haven't been relevant since a quality quarterback
was under center. The successful teams have great quarterbacks, the rest of
the league plays catch up by drafting or re-treading veterans that had
success at one point.
The situation isn't as bad as national columnists state it is in Washington.
Malcolm Kelly and Devin Thomas will come into their own as wide outs and
Santana Moss will continue to draw the secondary. It also helps to have a
quality tight end in Chris Cooley. McNabb has always relied on Bryant
Westbrook as a safety valve and quality running back. Clinton Portis might
break down, but he's still dependable.
If the Redskins upgrade their offensive line, then look out because they'll
be a much better team with McNabb. It's amazing that the Eagles traded
within the division. Seeing McNabb twice a year, that's a risk because he
can help the defensive coaches prepare for the Eagles every day now.
Teams rush to get younger and more athletic also lead to another conclusion.
There's an inability to close games because younger guys get fatigued faster
because they burn so much energy early. They also don't know how to finish
off teams that hang around late in the game. The New England Patriots were
an example of that, they lost a few games because their young defense
couldn't hold leads against the better teams.
The race for the title in the NFC East got a little tighter as another team
got better with the addition of McNabb. The Cowboys made some moves and
dumped some long time veterans and the New York Giants are poised to have a
better season after winning the Super Bowl a few seasons ago. It's an
interesting move this offseason and it's another reason why the National
Football League continues to be the best sports product available, the
uncertainty and hope that one move can bring to an entire franchise.
