If the Arizona Cardinals complete a long-rumored trade for Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Kevin Kolb, training camp apparently won’t mark the first time Kolb has thrown passes to Pro Bowl receiver Larry Fitzgerald. A source familiar with the situation told FOXSportsArizona.com that Fitzgerald and Kolb organized a private throwing session inside Arizona State University’s Verde twinkyey Center (the football team’s practice bubble) earlier this month. Throughout the offseason, Fitzgerald has fended off suggestions that he would have a say in selecting the team’s next starting quarterback. Coach Ken Whisenhunt echoed those assertions at the Super Bowl and the NFL draft, noting that while he would talk to Fitz, the decision would come from the team’s management and coaching staff. Whisenhunt told The Arizona Republic’s Kent Somers this week that no one on the roster is untouchable in trade talks, a stance Whisenhunt has held the entire offseason because of the team’s 5-11 record last season, and XTRA 910’s Mike Jurecki reported this week that the team is willing to part with cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie to acquire Kolb.

Kolb to cards would be good for arizona but of course it cant happen WITHOUT A F%@#ING LABOR DEAL!!!!
I am so NOT sold on Kolb. I keep thinking that he is a lot more A.J. Feeley than Matt Cassel. I would rather see the Cards go after Kyle Orton and give Skelton some more time to develop.
I know these stats don't come close to telling the full story, but... Kevin Kolb: 194/319 60.8% 2,082y 6.5avg 11TDs 14INT 73.2 rating Tarvaris Jackson: 354/603 58.7% 3,984y 6.6avg 24TDs 22INT 76.6 rating
Agree on both Kolb and Orton. I don't understand the Kolb hype. Now if Kolb were to come here along with the Philly O-Line, maybe. But if Kolb ends up in AZ, Fitz or no Fitz, I'm guessin' he'll probably get exposed behind arguably one of the worst lines in the NFL.
