Exactly. Any team who gives up more than a 5th for Kolb is wasting a pick. No way Arizona pays him that bonus, and I'm pretty sure the only place he has left to go is Cleveland but the Browns aren't desperate for him.

EDIT: That being said, I would take him back on the Eagles as a backup in a heartbeat. He's certainly an upgrade over Kafka or Edwards.
