The Facts:
McNabb has reportedly dropped 20 pounds this offseason. The 35-year-old has expressed a desire to continue his playing career. On Thursday night, the third overall pick of the 1999 NFL Draft told NBC SportsTalk that there's an 80-to-90 percent chance he'll be on an NFL roster at the start of the 2012 regular season. "I have about three teams that I'm looking at," McNabb said.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
McNabb has passed for 37,276 yards with 234 touchdowns. He's been to six Pro Bowls, most recently in 2009, and has led teams to six division titles and five conference championship games. Yet, he's not one of the 133 quarterbacks on current NFL rosters, which allow for up to 90 players. "I think teams are looking at what they have. They're evaluating their young QB, their backup situation," McNabb explained without identifying any of his potential suitors. Some believe the Cardinals might be on that list. Still, we'll go ahead and suggest that McNabb not hold his breath waiting. And even if somebody bites, McNabb's days of Fantasy relevancy are long over.
