Michael Vick signed a two-year deal with the Eagles in August. The second year is a team option at right over 5 million. Unless they cut him, Carolina could not sign him.

The Panthers could try to trade for him, but that is highly unlikely.

With McNabb and Kolb on the roster NO WAY do the Eagles give 5 mill next season to Vick to play 3rd string. And its become pretty evident to the NFL world that Vick (givin his popularity and ability) SHOULD BE and will start next season. Philly will look to unload him this offseason, the Panthers once again will have a chance at him (as well as other teams).

The more I think about Vick at QB in Charlotte, the more I am actually warming up to it.

We are a run first team. Add Vicks rushing ability to DWill and Stew and our run game would be nasty. My only concern is can he make enough plays in the passing game. He has never been an accurate passer and had difficulty making quick reads.

However, given the play of Jake and Moore....combined with the lack of any decent QB's in FA, it might just be one of the best options.

God, I can't believe I actually wrote that I would support Vick here.

Yeah, you can't sign Vick. If there's any interest at all the Eagles will exercise the 2nd year on his contract and trade him. They will end up looking like geniuses if they can net a 2nd or 3rd after picking him up as a FA only a year earlier.

As for Pike, the guy is going to be terrible in the pros. Bad decision making, absolutely horrendous timing with his WRs. Half of his completed passes in college would be INTs in the NFL.

I'm hoping we can get Mallett or Bradford in the 2nd but other than those two I don't see any QB available there being worth the pick. At that point, I'd take a WR or Cody if he's there and get a QB on day 2 like Hiller or LeFevour.

i dont see teams trading for vick and he wants out. he said he cant see hisself being a "wildcat" or other positions besides being a starting qb. hes in a situation like peppers where nfl teams knows he wants out and will just wait for there team to let him walk.

Peppers and Vick are different. Vick is actually under contract and can be traded. Peppers is not until after he signs a tender.

The Eagles will not just cut Vick. They took a gamble and it worked for them. They'll get something in return.

it is alot alike because the eagles are not gonna give vick 6 million next season to be 3rd string qb what im stating is neither team is gonna get much trade value and will end up releasing each one.

      How is Charlotte FC doing?

      By DeSim · Posted

      You wanted to be educated, get prepared… What @MillionDollarCam said about Kahlina and the defense, we’re currently tied for 2nd for fewest goals allowed, with a current streak of 4 straight shutouts.  Positional thoughts… GK - Already mentioned Kahlina DEFENDERS - Back four have been solid, even more the central defenders, Malanda and Privett.  We knew Malanda had potential and he’s living up to it so far this season.  Privett, even though solid last year, his potential was never clear, but this season he’s showing his true potential.   Fullbacks, Byrne and Uronen also solid.  Uronen currently injured (not sure how long) and hopefully not too long cause the current backup, Joao Pedro has been a liability these last 2 games when filling in.  Byrne’s backup, we still have Lindsey who fills in nicely as a sub or whenever starts to give Byrne some light rest.   Other backups, Diop and Tuiloma. Diop has yet to play this season I believe and Tuiloma, below average to average.  MIDFIELDERS - Ashley Westwood is top notch, nothing bad at all to say about the guy, imo.  Box to box midfielder, takes ownership of the defensive midfield area when opposition has the ball and support upfield when Charlotte is in control.  Diani seems like a similar player as Westwood, but obviously not as good.  Petkovic,  Bronico play a bit more upfield but Bronico being more defense focused.  Same as Arfield and Urso, Urso a bit more defense focused.  Then there’s Djaegere, who even though he’s the no. 10 and should be the playmaking outfielder, just looks lost out there most of the time, and unfortunately he’s been out there plenty.  Cambridge and Bender (injury) have to played so far this year. WINGERS - Because of injuries, Djaegere has been asked to play there plenty and I already mentioned my thoughts about him.  Maybe playing out of position is why he looks lost but he makes the simplest mistakes and awful passes at times.  Main guys are Vargas and Abada.  Abada has been bc of injury almost 2 months I think? I believe returns next game against Philly.  But when he’s in, oh man the attack level picks up a lotttt.  He knows how to time his runs perfectly to get open.  Vargas is a threat to get into the box and get open as well but sometimes he misses the easy passes (idk if it’s bc selfish or just doesn’t see it) and decides to shoot, needs to work on his vision.   FORWARDS - Swiderski is currently out on loan in Italy, but Italy could buy him at the end of the loan, which may happen. Iuri Tavares, back up, his natural position is forward but has been playing this season mostly on the wing since we lack players there and injuries.  Below average to average, has his moments winning one-on-one.  Even though he’s no longer on the team, he needs to be mentioned  Enzo Copetti…brought in as a DP who never played to that form last year but not really “bad” either. but oh man this year… Horrible, I don’t even know how else to put it.  After 2-3 horrible games to start the season, Dean Smith started to played the back up more and more   And that leads me to Patrick Agyemang.  When he started subbed in for Copetti, such a difference.  Easily better than Copetti, which is insane if you think about that he came through CLT through the draft last year (which usually doesn’t yield good players quick) and Copetti was a DP.  So that led to Charlotte selling Copetti, he went bye bye and now it’s Agyemang’s spot and deserved. So in summary: Defense: STRONG Midfield: Outside of Westwood, needs work..starting with getting Djaegere out and finding a true playmaker   Wings: Solid when healthy, need depth Forward: Agyemang average but still growing, and is just going to get better. With Jozwiak out during the past transfer window and now Copetti, there’s 2 DP slots open for Charlotte to get some real good players. And seeing how Dean Smith has evaluated players this season, I trust they’ll get the right guys. Dean Smith, he’s done amazing for what he’s been dealt with and he’s not afraid of playing younger players over experienced ones.
