    I personally find Vick to be overrated. That being said, now that the Falcons are open to trading him, who thinks he would be a good addition? Believe me, the deal is a bit pricey with 45M left on his contract with 9M in salary and 6.3 in bonuses, but if this is an all weather offense, a guy that's more inclined to run, might be the incarnation of the ultimate all-weather O.

    Personally I think he's a leg fracture waiting to happen.

    no one is going to trade for him without requiring that he rework that absurd contract. Hopefully it's not the Jet's that do it.

    shit...I wonder who won the "Call the next thread" contest from the TT forum. Whoever called "Michael Vick", is your champion.

    Only if we can keep him in a doggy cage between games.

    Yeah it would definitely take a massive rework. It's expensive right now, but as the OS progresses he may get cheaper, unless some fool is willing to pay that.

    But on the flip-side would you take him over Warner, Garcia, Wrongwich?

    No. Mostly because I don't like him as a person and I don't think he's a leader. I also believe Warner and Garcia are much better QB's than Vick ever was or will be.

    Not at any price - the bad publicity would kill the team and would overshadow anything the team did!!!

    Just tell the woman in your avatar to pull the shirt down another millimeter before the next photo shoot.

    Right, but if you put either one of those guys in a winter game, there is no passing game anymore. Neither is or was great, IMO. When THe Crying Dick was running the show with the Rams, they had that great window system that lead to the greatest show on turf, and he thrived. Regardless of SB appearances, he's not super.

    Garcia? Older Chad Pennington.

    Peronally, I hope not as well. I don't give a rats ass that he was running fights out of his house, I just don't think he's going to make a healthy run as a starting QB, mainly because of his greatest asset.

    I don't want the Jets to be on ESPN because some over-zealous dog-loving linebacker decided to make Michael Vick pay for his crimes on national TV.

    Why is there no passing game in the winter? That's news to me.

    Warner is a lock for the HOF. Garcia is a completely different QB than Penny, I don't get the comparison.

    In closing, fuck Vick.

    Totally different in the sense that one has hair the other doesn't? Garcia may be a little more mobile...ok this is Chad, maybe a LOT, but his arm is mediocre at best. Hell Chad might even be smarter!

    Do you really think with all the talent Warner had around him this past year, and in the SB winning year with the Rams, that Warner was that great?

    All the other years where he utterly sucked were just a fluke? Did he just wake up out of a fog and decide to be the Kurt of old? No, same old Kurt.

    The guy will be suspended by Roger for another season, sure he will be. Then i would rather go with well practically anyone. The guy is a bum, i don't want him anywhere near our team.

    They should spread peanut butter on his balls and feed him to the dogs.

    Bringing in Michael Vick would be a horrible decision. I hope the Jets stay far away from Michael Vick.
