Geoff Mosher writing an NFL notes column for delawareonline with this among other notes:

* Multiple league sources have told me that they anticipate the Eagles paying Vick’s 1.5 roster bonus and holding onto Vick for as long as possible to get the best available offer. Shelling out $1.5 million is hardly unreasonable if the team gets a third-or fourth-round pick in return.

* League sources familiar with the Eagles’ thinking believe that the team will prioritize business over football in its quarterback decision – meaning they’ll deal McNabb for the offer, even if they believe he’s still a championship-caliber quarterback. One source said the Eagles’ front office is divided about its two QBs.

As for the 1.5 million to stay in the Mike Vick business, hey, it’s not my money. Burn away. It’s the last part that has me Lol’ing. If there is any truth to the Eagles front office being divided between Kolb being the best long-term option for the team and instead thinking Vick is, well, then the vast majority of teams that need quarterbacks should swoop in and try to talk Kolb off the Eagles. And if there is a scenario where the Eagles hitch their wagon for 2010 to Vick over Kolb I would be highly entertained by that decision-making. And then some.
