My Eagles don't need a QB and we don't need Vick.

It's funny that the 2 teams that would be interested in Vick are teams with animals in them (Lions and Bears). Now only if there was the Pittbuls or something like that. Vick will go to a team but I don't see the Steelers, Panthers, Eagles, Pats, Raiders, Dolphins, Giants, Colts, Saints, Chargers, Packers, Titans and Bronco's interested. There are more but those are the ones off the top of my head and I am at work and don't want to look it up.

No. Not because of his legal history. Because he can't pass.

Nope. We already dealt with Cheddar Bob, DMX doesn't need to come into town, too.

Those PETA fools will try their hardest to keep him out of the league, but i think some team will take a chance on him. Probably bring him in somewhere as a backup then work him up to a starter when the heat is off. He's done his time so I don't see why it would be wrong to have him back in the league (probably after some sort of league suspension).

The Bears will not be interested in him. Angelo got rid of Tank Johnson and Cedric Benson for less.

That was just a stupid article by a stupid writer.

Hell yeah I would. And I'd trade Cassel to the Vikes for the #23 pick. Trade #23, #24 and the Chargers 2nd round pick to the Seahawks for #4.

Draft Crabtree, sign Vick for the minimum. Convert Vick to running back and call halfback passes to Moss/Crabtree/Welker all day. Also, have Brady roll out, throw a lateral back across the field to Vick who throws it deep to Moss. And set up Brady in the shotgun with Vick and Kevin O'Connell (QB with a 4.5 forty time) in the backfield with him...Crabtree and Moss on the outside, Welker in the slot. YOU CANNOT STOP IT.

he can be a cowboy only if he agrees to the role as willis as jerry jones recreates different strokes (w/jerry as conrad bain, pacman as arnold) also jason witten can be dana plato (or to be tasteless, the corpse of mark tuinei, to go along w/the whole the character of plato becomes a crack whore)

tank johnson or TO can be there friend who gets molested by the bike owner and tony romo can be that little white kid

If he hasn't lost his elite athleticism in jail he'll be a valuable piece for some team. He just needs to go in with the right mindset. More than him being an exciting player, I hope he gets back into the league just to piss off the PETA wackos.

We have Flacco, but if he's happy to make the minimum and be part of trick plays, why not?

A team will take a flyer with him?!?!
What about Dolphins??!?!..Imagine the WIldcat Possibilities?!?!

But I think a team like Titans could be useful..a team used to a scrammbling qb so it has a similar system(assuming collins will be out and VY will start)

It’s got to be karmic justice that Wildcat/Pistol offenses caught on in a season without Vick.

Could possibly turn out to be a complete cancer and it may lead to team chemistry issues. I'm not saying Mike's that type of guy, but you never know how one player can dramatically change a team for the bad, and the guy doesn't even have to play one down for it to happen. I'm assuming the media drama once he's out and signs with a team is also going to get annoying to his teammates.

THe niners will keep Alex Smith, trade for Vince Young, draft Tebow, and pick up Vick and run the triple option from the A11 formation, replacing QB's at will and playing 2-3 at a time.
