2008 Projections

Best Case

The best case for Kevin Kolb would probably be the worst case for the Eagles. While the team thinks highly of last year's second round pick, for him to see the field would mean that Donovan McNabb got hurt and that the Eagles are effectively eliminated from playoff contention in 2008. In the event Kolb does see the field, a strong showing under center would go a long way toward establishing himself as the possible full-time starter in 2009.

Worst Case

The simplest answer is that Kolb, as the Eagles' QB3, may not see the field. But, in reality, the worst case scenario would instead by if Kevin got playing time and looked horrible in the process. At that juncture, it would call into question whether he is a viable alternative to Donovan McNabb in a season or two.

Outlook

There is a very good chance that Kolb doesn't see the field in 2008, because he is third in line. Expect him to continue to hold a clipboard and learn the intricacies of the Eagles complicated West Coast system, readying himself for a potential opportunity in a season or two. He's not a fantasy consideration in redraft leagues.
