What the worse that can happen, If Vick doesn't work out we can use him like the Eagles are now. Just look at what Tennessee is doing with Vince Young and Chris Johnson. We could easily have that to, QB options, rollouts, Vick scrambling. He would go wild in the Georgia dome and Metrodome

What it comes down to is what do we have to lose? Vick on the Panthers would only open up our options. Hey, it might not work out, but we also won't be saying "What if?" On the contrary, Vick is still explosive and knowing his ability and competitiveness, I'm willing to bet that deep down he is itching for another chance as a starter. You would be surprised what a man who has been held down for so long can do once he is unleashed. Aside from the Vick matter, I'm all for Tony Pike or some QB with big upsides like size and arm strength. Whether he will be ready for week 1 is too hard to tell at this point, regardless, having competition in training camp is the best thing this team could ask for. Vick, Pike, Moore, Delhomme (hate to say it), all fighting for a starting job gives us the best chance to win and provides depth.

Didn't the Panthers cut a player a couple of years ago for lying to a cop? So why would JR really think about bringing a

CONVICTED FELON onto his team??????

      ESPN's Top 10 Impact Rookies(non-1st Round)

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Scourton's interviews are telling to me that it's only a matter of time before he could really put it together.  His limitation tool-wise that I see is in his bend, but at the leaner size, it looks like it wasn't a problem at Purdue.   He has a good moveset and reads leverages very well (vet level well).  Plays both the speed/quickness (great change of direction) and has a power game with good hand usage.  Moves from what I've seen in my digs: I'm seeing cross-chop, fake crossers into bull, bull rush, spin (his preferred move of choice), hand shuck.  He's not unrefined by any means.   If he can do 2 things---I'm feeling confident from seeing his interviews that we have a real dude on our hands: 1) Diversifying his moveset/how it's deployed - Over-reliant on some, but again, he has a growing palette.  And is already great with his hands so things are in-place to coach up. 2) Developing a counter moveset and starting to play the chess game with an OT - He's very good at reading leverage, knowing when to change things up during a play.  But NFL coaching should start to teach him how to really create a plan based on an opponent.  What to throw at a guy first, how to confuse with fakes/counters, etc.  How to play against these tackles as a game progresses.   Overall, he has some things that give me serious optimism: Run Defense, speed moves, power moves, he's super young and has the size/length.  When you really spell it all out, I think we should get excited.  Temper expectations from a stat sheet standpoint, but he should be able to go in and make an impact.

      Scourton may not get double digit sacks, but he won't be a liability on every other down
