I haven't watched a lot of Kolb, not that there's a lot to watch, but "arm strength" and "deep ball" are two different
Which sort of leads back to Whis' presser where he said that he watched the tape and Andy Reid told him Kolb was good. Kind of cringe-worthy for a head coach to say with so little "tape". Not to mention taking Reid's word for anything in that particular situation.
SMEL?Brayon is freak in the to mold. Lol @ him just being a speed guy.

DeSean Jackson would have to disagree. So would Maclin.

Don't rule out Braylon Edwards to the Cardinals but I have been told it is a LONG Shot
Two catch-and-run guys? I'm not sure why that would be the case? Kolb has the arm to complete the deep out, but he's not a deep ball passer on the magnitude of someone like Rodgers, Roethlisberger, Rivers, or McNabb--or even Derek Anderson. Kolb has an NFL arm, but he's not a deep ball passer that can highlight Braylon Edwards's skill set.
As I said, what Braylon is good at is body control and leaping ability. He's a young Plaxico Burress. That's what he was asked to do in New York, and what he was asked to do in Cleveland before that. Fitz has more run-after-catch ability, but not a ton more.
As for eye level, his 6.3 YPA last year speaks for itself, doesn't it? Doesn't mean that he can't get the ball to a deeper level; it just means that he's not trying to very much.
I'll draw my conclusions on Kevin Kolb once I see him play in the Cardinals offense.
Definitely have to wait to see what we got but I'm a bit more positive on Kolb.
If you look at last year he really only had consistent PT for 4 games in a row, a stretch where he came off the bench in a loss to Wash and then started the next 3. in those 4 games 92-143 1011 yards 6 TD 4 INT's. That's 64.3% comp and 7.06 YPA, not HOF of course but not bad at all against Was, SF, ATL, and Ten.
In the loss to Was the score was 14-3 Was when Kolb came in, and 9-3 Philly the rest of the way so hard to blame him for the loss.
His stats look a lot worse because he didn't play again after Ten until 10 weeks later in the season finale loss to Dallas. I mean not at all save one very short mopup where he essentially took a knee.
We need to see him play, he averaged 7.7 YPA the season before.
I think the main thing is he's MUCH more accurate than DA was, much more polished than Skelton and much more talented than Hall was so I'd be pretty surprised if he doesn't make us a better football team.

There's no question for me that Kolb is better than the clowns we had last season. I love the contract that we signed him to because he'll either be a big bargain in three years or he'll be on the street. I still hate the trade and nothing short of Top 12 in most statistical categories in 2011 is going to change my mind.
But there's no reason that he shouldn't be at least below-average in this offense if he can stay healthy this year. My argument isn't about Kolb as much as it is about where the best place for Braylon Edwards to play a one-year deal would be. I think he'd be better off going to San Diego, Oakland (maybe), New England (maybe), Miami, Tampa Bay (maybe)... and Minnesota. Team him with Bernard Berrian and have play action with Adrian Peterson and he's not going to have to run more than fly and flag routes all day long.
Of course, the defenses he faced were Washington (31st in the NFL), San Francisco (13th), Atlanta (16th), and Tennessee (26th). Not exactly a murderers' row.
As for the second stretch: you've been in the offense four years, Kev. Figure it out.
According to NFL Network's Jason La Canfora, free agent Braylon Edwards may have to settle for a "one-year, prove-it deal" on the open market.
We've noted previously that no teams are considering locking up Edwards long term, and this is more evidence. One Monday report from a Phoenix radio station claimed Edwards "lowered" his demands to $25 million over five seasons -- the Steve Breaston range -- but Braylon won't even get that. No team is going to risk dumping guaranteed money into a player they consider a "diva" with off-field issues and questions about his passion for the game.
Jackson consistently gets behind defenses and, IIRC, caught more than one deep bomb from Kolb. Granted, I could be wrong because I didn't look it up--I'm just relying on my swiss-cheese memories.Two catch-and-run guys?
Terry McCormick of Titan Insider cautions not to buy speculation of free agent Braylon Edwards landing in Nashville.
The Washington Post recently cited the Titans as one of four teams "rumored" to be interested in Edwards, and that gossip picked up steam on the internet Monday. We've seen nothing solid on Edwards-to-Tennessee. The Titans already have a more talented headache at wide receiver in Kenny Britt.
