edrendell.jpg Ed Rendell back in 1999 was critical of the Eagles draft pick of McNabb over Ricky Williams. I guess he’s ate those words many times over. McNabb is still here and have at least been to the Super Bowl and Ricky, well, lets just say that he’s got Mary Jane on his mind since testing positive back in April, a month before trying to get back into the league.

Now he is giving the Eagles and Andy Reid shit about their current draft pick in Kevin Kolb.

“It boggles the entire mind,” Rendell told Bloomberg Television when asked about the Eagles’ decision to use their top draft pick on University of Houston quarterback Kevin Kolb. “It was stunning to all of us.”

Rendell said the Eagles should have used their top draft choice on Southern Cal wide receiver Dwayne Jarrett, who was taken nine picks after Kolb by the Carolina Panthers.

“I think we are going to rue the day we didn’t pick him,” Rendell said.

I myself questioned why they would take a QB this high when they had needs everywhere else. No one is saying that they should be looking towards the future, but this year this high may not be the best for the team.
