Vikings tops on McNabb's trade wish list
3/26/2010 6:24:01 AM
Jeff McLane of the Philadelphia Inquirer reports if Donovan McNabb had his say, and he may very well have it, he would prefer to be traded to Minnesota.
After Andy Reid announced Wednesday that the Eagles were "entertaining offers" for all three of their quarterbacks, McNabb reiterated that he wants to remain in Philadelphia. But if the team were to ship its franchise quarterback elsewhere, the Vikings would be his first choice, according to sources close to the situation.
There are obstacles to this even remotely happening.
For one, the Vikings technically already have a starting quarterback in Brett Favre, and indications are that the 40-year-old is coming back for another season.
And even if Favre were to retire, a decision on his replacement isn't likely to be made until training camp - and the Eagles probably can't wait that long.
So in the meantime, the Eagles will solicit offers from other teams, most of whom McNabb has no desire to play for.
