Kevin Curtis out for a while with a sports hernia
As if Donovan McNabb didn't have enough trouble finding a reliable wide receiver to throw to, today it was announced that Kevin Curtis will be out for an extended amount of time getting surgery for a sports hernia. There is no absolute time table on how long it will take Curtis to return, but my non-PHD guess would be that it will take a couple months for him to be back to top form. Obviously this hurts Curtis' draft rank, but it also has a negative affect on McNabb's, as well as a positive affect on the rookie, DeSean Jackson. The other starter in the offense, Reggie Brown, is already out with a hamstring injury for a short while (possibly back to start the season), so Jackson immediately jumps up to the #1 receiver in the offense for the remaining preseason games. Check back in a bit to see where this news affects our power rankings...
If you've already drafted Curtis in your league, we feel your pain. Especially when in one of my leagues I also have Brandon Marshall...looks like weeks one and two will be a bit weak at the WR position!

If the Eagles were serious about getting McNabb any help going into this season, they would look to trade for Antoine Bolden from the Cardinals. He's unhappy in Arizona, demanding a trade, and is a Pro-Bowl, veteran receiver. If the Eagles don't pick Bolden up, someone else will.
