While earlier reports said that the St. Louis Rams had already offered a second-round draft pick along with safety Oshiomoghe Atogwe for acquiring the Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Donovan McNabb, the latest reports said it was definitely untrue.
Per the new reports, Atogwe is coming off shoulder surgery and ended the season on injured reserve, and would have to sign a tender offer before the Rams could trade him. He had made 60 consecutive starts and was the team’s second-leading tackler before getting hurt in early December. Instead of being interested in McNabb, the reports said the Rams actually are planning to take Oklahoma quarterback Sam Bradford with the first pick of the draft.
Well, by so far, there has not been any confirmation of either report from the Rams general manager Billy Devaney. But it’s just reasonable for this kind of thing to happen as the Rams, who ended last season 1-15, indeed need a big-name quarterback to improve their offense line, while the Eagles are believed to get rid of at least one of their three quarterbacks remaining on roster. McNabb is the oldest and thus unsurprisingly surfaced in such trade rumors.
