Vick will have many suitors

The Eagles are widely expected to trade quarterback Mike Vick before the fifth day of the 2010 league year, at which time he earns a $1.5 million roster bonus. And with the Eagles spending much of the latter portion of the season showcasing Vick, the unofficial auction likely will be starting soon.

Making a trade even more likely is the fact that Vick wants to be the starter, and he won't be the starter in Philly -- unless the Eagles trade both Donovan McNabb and Kevin Kolb.

So where will he go? According to Jason La Canfora of NFL.com, Vick will have "many suitors."

Per La Canfora, teams to watch include the Bills, Rams, Panthers, Raiders, and Jaguars.

Making Vick even more attractive is the fact that the top unrestricted free agent quarterback likely will be Daunte Culpepper.

So as the NFL's hot stove begins to warm up, Vick is one of the first guy's whose future will be decided sooner rather than later.

Florio forget 2 teams in Jason's article--> Oakland and Jacksonville.

I'll be the first to say, not a chance

Yep. The Eagles were giving Mike Vick a second chance. He even won the Ed Block award. Image is everything.

The FO is not dumb. Use him enough to give him exposure, don't hurt him(your assest) and add that award and you got yourself a nice chip.

Smart.

Id say Jacksonville. But then theres The Golden Calf of Bristol. (PS I think Garrard is a good QB) Oakland sounds right, but it also sounds like a mistake waiting to happen. Rams would be ideal. He and Steven Jackson would make a good fit. and the Bills would be alright I guess.

God sometimes it feels like Vick is even more over-rated now than when he was actually playing. He is second string QB material, player wise, stat wise all around. If he were to start somewhere it would only be because he fits a system/profile, and so Vick will go to Oakland. I am wondering what happens to Russell...

    • And once again I showed you it’s been pretty even. We spent 2nd and 3rd rounders this past draft on edge rushers. No one’s going to sit here and do the math on a draft value chart etc. the only reason I even entertained this was because you said we’ve spent nothing on defense when that simply isn’t true. It also didn’t help we traded our ONLY WR worth a damn to trade up for Bryce soo… And this is kind of the issue with the anti Bryce crowd. This crowd tends to blame him for the trade up. I was team Stroud. Had the panthers not taken Young the only other QB they were going to take was Richardson. So your issue should be with Tepper, Morgan, Fitterer not Bryce.  Bryce is who he is and it was pretty obvious who he was during the draft process. Bryce is slowly developing into that guy most thought he’d be. Give him a WR like Jamo and this offense as a whole would improve greatly.  Anyone thinking he was the next Pat Mahomes or Josh Allen is clearly slow. Bryce was always going to need pieces around him much like EVERY other QB Burrow has Chase and Higgins and they’ve done nothing. After losing in AFC Championship in 2022, Burrow is 17-15. QB’s need a team around them It’s why a Jalen Hurts led Eagles team dismantled a Pat Mahomes led KC team in the SB Imo the QB’s doing the most with the least up until this year have been Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson  This year it’s Drake Maye and Josh Allen  Outside of the 3-5 elite type QB’s I’m not really sure what people expect here. Is Bryce ever going to be in that elite category? Nope. Should we punt on Bryce and keep swinging? I don’t think so. Should we keep swinging while hanging onto Bryce? Yeah but I don’t know what that looks like This team as a whole isn’t very good. Offense and defense and that’s the simple truth  
    • I didn't move the goal posts. But anyone who follows football who wants to engage in a rational discussion can't argue that 10 7th round picks are equal to 10 1st rounders in value. The argument has always been we haven't spent as much on defense has we have on offense. Draft picks have value just like salary. We have not spent the same amount of draft pick salary cap on defense that we have on offense since drafting Bryce. It's not even close. Just the 2 1sts we used on Bryce, 2 overall 1sts have a value of 6000. That doesn’t even factor in DJ Moore or the 2 2nds. Bryce cost more than everything we've spent on defense in 6 damn years. 
    • We need to hope this scenario plays our next week he fails with pressure…what that means with Evero, is beyond me
