Salary wise KK will be expensive. He is by his own account looking for a big jump in contract salary. For the privelege of paying that salary we would need to give Philli a Starter(often Identified as DRC + next years 1st Rd. pick) Damage to Whisenhunt's perceived ability to evaluate talent could be just as expensive to the Cards. I think, when you look at Kevin Kolbs Stats compared to Matt Leinarts stats the case can be made that Kolb is not an upgrade to Matt leinart; who we released.
There's always a stupid team that overpays. The cards have always been that team... they looked like they started to break that cycle by picking peterson. The cards are in a tough position because Fitz is in his last yr. Not having an established QB could scare him into the arms of another team that is established. What if u get kk for him and but then he decides to leave? It takes 2 to tango. Fitz needs a partner who will deliver. Who will it be?
