The 2011 NFL Quarterback Swap-Meet: Where will they land?

One of the biggest questions surrounding this post-lockout free agent frenzy is how dominos will fall at the quarterback position. You know the names, but where should/will they end up? Here are the remaining free agent/on the trading block QB’s and their potential suitors.

Clearly the most intriguing/mysterious QB on the market, Kolb’s the really hot girl at the party you know nothing about. The situation is thus: Do you ditch the safe (but perhaps not as attractive) girl with the quirky and fun personality or do you risk it all with the super-hot woman that could turn out to be a total psycho? Arizona is staring that problem in the face right now with the Orton/Kolb conundrum. With Seattle signing Tarvaris Jackson, the Cardinals are clearly the spot for Kolb to land.

He should be a Viking. ‘Nuff said. I’m not sure what happened in Washington and I don’t think anyone else does either. Minnesota should jump in with a third or conditional second round pick and get this done.

***Late Breaking: This deal is reported as nearing completion by Jay Glazer. The Vikings will send a pair of sixth round (2012 and 2013) picks to Washington for McNabb, provided McNabb restructures his current contract. Wow. That cost way less than I thought it would. Shows how much the 'Skins think of McNabb.

Just walk away man.

For the only veteran with any legitimate success that’s a true free agent, the fact that Hasselbeck is definitely leaving Seattle adds a new level to these QB swaps. I could see him heading to Tennessee or Miami and becoming to starter right away. My money’s on the Titans.

Oh Kyle. Why does no one love you? All I hear is “All Kyle Orton does is win.” Well, that and peter out down the stretch. And fail to complete a single pass for more than six yards. And never manage to cut that ridiculous hair. For whatever reason, Denver isn’t sold on Orton, so he’ll likely end up shipping out. Whoever loses the Kevin Kolb sweepstakes may make a push for Orton. He’s certainly on Arizona’s radar as the cheaper alternative.

Gross.

Young’s on this list because of his past draft status and untapped potential. He obviously needs to be a back-up, but where? It’s easy: Philadelphia. If the Eagles can trade Kolb for the value they think he’s worth, they should sign Young as the perfect back-up to Michael Vick. Philly’s problem last year is that the offense completely changed depending on whatever QB was in the game. With Young and Vick, that will never happen.

Once thought to be a lock for the starter’s job in Arizona, Bulger might be left in the wind thanks to Kolb. That jerk. Still, he could easily take a role in Cleveland or Minnesota as a veteran back-up.
