From AP:Donovan McNabb had the same reaction most fans had when the Philadelphia Eagles selected quarterback Kevin Kolb with their first pick in last month’s NFL draft.”It was shocking,” McNabb said yesterday in an interview on WIP-AM radio.Speaking publicly for the first time since the draft on April 28-29, McNabb downplayed the perception he’s upset the Eagles selected his eventual successor.The five-time Pro Bowl quarterback also said his rehab is going well following surgery for a torn knee ligament and he expects to play in the pre-season.

“When you draft somebody at the position you’re in, of course you naturally have questions,” McNabb said.

“The most important thing for me is to make sure I’m healthy and 100% and get back out there competing and do the right thing on the field.”

McNabb met with coach Andy Reid soon after the draft, but wouldn’t reveal details of their conversation.

My Take: Watching the longest draft in fucking history, I’m on my last beer (Bud Light like my new idol Don Nelson ) and I realize that I need to send someone on a beer run. And here comes the Philadelphia Eagles in the 1st round to pick at 26 and they decide to trade down with the Cowboys (you trade with your division foe?) to the 2nd round 36th pick. So when the Eagles card comes to the podium I am expected them to take a DT or WR to help fill the hole of Stallworth leaving to the Patriots. But here it goes, they pick a QB, Kevin Kolb with their first pick of the day. A fucking QB and a system QB at that, a freaking QB from Houston! With all of the holes they needed to fill, you don’t take someone who can’t help you for a few years. I know McNabb has been hurt the last few years and they will need to get a QB soon, but not this year and this high.

Good job Eagles, you not only get rid of a very good proven QB in Jeff Garcia, but you allow the Cowboys to draft a pass rusher who will be on McNabb’s ass all season next year. Way to stab McNabb in the back. Next time, why don’t you give McNabb a chance to fully turn around before grabbing the butcher knife. Hey McNabb, why don’t you come out with me and my new bud ole Donny Nelson, he knows how to have a good time!
