The Facts:
McNabb took part in the first practice of Eagles training camp Saturday, more than eight months after he tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee against Tennessee. "I'd say it's still about 75 percent," McNabb said of his knee. "I haven't tested it yet, but I can do everything I need to do in order to be successful. At 75 percent, I personally feel I can be one of the best quarterbacks in the league."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
It's worth noting that McNabb said during a mini-camp in June -- about six weeks ago, that his knee was at 70-75 percent. Although he doesn't appear hindered in practice, the Eagles do not plan to rush his return and have not decided whether he will play in their pr-eseason opener against Baltimore on Aug. 13. McNabb is wearing a protective brace on the knee, although he did not use one in mini-camp or in his annual workouts in Arizona. ... Stay tuned. We'll be following McNabb's progress closely.
