| Philadelphia Eagles head coach Andy Reid, free-agent QB Donovan McNabb's (Vikings) former head coach, said any team would be wise to take a chance on the quarterback. 'I still think he can play. I think the world of him, and we had some great years together here. I'm always wishing him the best and a fan of his. I got a chance to see him at Brian Dawkins' retirement (event),' Reid said. 'He looks good. He looks physically good. He looks like he could go out and play tomorrow. I would highly recommend (him).' |

| Free-agent QB Donovan McNabb (Vikings) said he'd 'absolutely' vote for himself to be in the Hall of Fame despite not winning a Super Bowl. 'What happens a lot of times is we look at what the list says, so we talk about the five NFC Championship Games, the six Pro Bowls and then we come to the end, 'Well, he never won the big game,'' McNabb said. 'Well, Peyton never won the big game until he won the Super Bowl. Dan Marino never won the big game. Does that mean his career is a failure? No, not at all.' |

| Free-agent QB Donovan McNabb (Vikings) said he does not believe Baylor QB Robert Griffin III will be successful if he lands with the Washington Redskins. 'No. I say that because a lot of the time ego gets too involved when it comes to being in Washington,' McNabb said. 'Here's a guy that's coming out who is very talented -mobile, strong arm. We've already heard he's intelligent, a football mind. Are you going to cater the offense around his talent and what he's able to do or are you going to bring the Houston offense with Matt Schaub over to him and have him kind of be embedded in that?' McNabb added, 'When you talk about RG3, you talk about his ability, you talk about how smart he is, his arm strength - what type of offense do you run with it? Is the the spread offense that you have him continue to flourish in. Or, are you just going to have him in a fox hole with a makeshift offensive line? You keep bringing in receivers. You have a solid tight end in Fred Davis that you need to feature. What are we going to see? I don't think it's a great fit.' |

| Chicago Bears WR Devin Hester said he is not in favor of the team signing free-agent QB Donovan McNabb (Vikings). Hester believes McNabb could not get up to speed fast enough with the Bears' offense to make a difference. And Hester even suggested that McNabb's arrival could be counterproductive, as any time spent working with McNabb would take away from time the rest of the offense needs to work with QB Caleb Hanie. 'It's going to be tough right now to pick up a quarterback that hasn't played in the Mike Martz offense,' Hester said. 'This is a difficult offense to run, so as far as a quarterback who hasn't played in the offense, right now it's going to be a waste of time.' |
