Let's keep the discussion to Vick. We already have a thread regarding Ponder and discussion about the QB and what to do with him. _________________

One reason I wouldn't be totally against bringing Vick in next season is that there aren't any Luck/RGIII caliber prospects in next year's draft. Why not just go with a guy like Vick, use the draft to continue rebuilding the rest of the team, and then when a Luck/RGIII is available in the draft, you sell the farm to go and get him. In the meantime, Vick could win us some games, sell a bunch of jerseys, and create some excitement. _________________

or get his 15th concussion, be on IR, take up salary space, and then make us scramble (get it...?) for a replacement who never got reps. _________________

I'd rather have this team go to an open competition between Ponder and Webb in training camp, and let who ever wins start the season. Let the two prove why the deserve to remain on this beyond 2013, or let them play themselves out of a job. _________________

Very possible. That's why Vick is not the guy in my sig. I like a QB who gives concussions, not one who gets them.
Wouldn't it be great if we could add Tebow and then unleash that offense on the rest of the league? _________________

UB, that sig pic makes Tebow look like Sgt. Rock! _________________ However, you're right that it did improve a bit. I'm just not sure I trust our coaching staff to develop offensive lineman. |

Vick is washed up, no thanks. _________________
Prediction: Derek Carr = next Brandon Weeden; Zach Mett will be a good starter; Manziel will be a STAR.

That's what I'm saying right about now. Only QB I wouldn't take is the Jags QB |
Really? Because Chad Henne is lighting it up. |
I was talking more about there injured young QB but Henne has not been doing bad in his starts recently _________________ Don't even know what to think about the vikings anymore. |
