McNabb is reportedly close to getting his new deal. Brookover said this today on his Philadelphia Inquirer blog:
Are you kidding me? Franchise QB with 2 years (one essentially) left on his contract vs. dependable but replaceable #2 CB with 4 years left on his contract… no comparison.
And with Sheldon not showing up to voluntary workouts, expect Hobbs to get a legit shot at winning his job. They are comparable players, Brown is more physical and much better in press coverage, while Hobbs is quicker and has better hands… their overall coverage skills are similar, however. Brown should be careful what he wishes for.

If this report is true, cornerback Sheldon Brown has every right to be seething in South Carolina right now, because he is underpaid by cornerback standards.
