Adam Caplan of FOXSports.com reports Kolb is headed to Arizona in exchange for a second-round pick and 2009 Pro Bowl cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie.
That’s a ton to give up for an unproven quarterback, but the Cardinals were only getting started betting their future on Kolb. Caplan reports Kolb will sign a five-year, $63 million contract with $20 million guaranteed.

lol, that's what I'm sayin...for an unproven inconsistent QB, they give up a 2nd rounder and a starting CB?

Hell, at least we only gave up a 2nd rounder for an unproven player and got a LB for free.

Why not? Because he's in the vicious NFC West?

I'm not saying he'll succeed, but he's got a better shot there than he did in Philly.

Well they don't have much talent out there and just lost 2 of their best players...sub par o-line, crap D...He's got Fitz but that's about it. A vet QB would be hard pressed to do much with that team. Good point about the division but still...

Also for all the hype about Kolb he wasn't all that impressive when he got his shot in Philly

Yeah, he was very underwhelming in Philly. Still, free agency isn't over with. I wouldn't be shocked to see them go snag a dude or two, even if they have to kidnap them.
