Brandon Weeden and the Age controversy

[Hawks Nest 12th Man]

considering the recent success of rookie qbs Weeden has to be considered in 2nd round. You just wish he had someone to throw to that's put up good numbers or been to a pro bowl.

What's the highest draft pick you would trade for Kevin Kolb? Because Kolb is better than Weeden right now and he's a year younger.

I wouldn't say he's better than Weeden at all, but probably both players are worth a 2nd round pick

As a fantasy player it's not even close. Kolb is probably the better football player and is throwing to Larry Fitzgerald and Michael Floyd against the NFC West. Not close.

Considering Kolb did absolutely nothing last year and hasn't locked down the starting spot in AZ, not sure I would say it's not even close! Throwing to Fitzgerald, Roberts, Doucet, and Floyd isn't a bad situation, but Weeden seems to have just as good of shot to be an opening day starter as Kolb.

I would only trade a 3rd rounder for Kolb, but that is irrelevant. I like Weeden better than Kolb. Who cares how young Kolb is? Kolb will probably be a career backup by the time he is Weeden's age.
