mufdvr3669 Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 ummm, vick is getting $2 million more for 3 more years. It's not more than Manning's deal, just more years. Really don't care for either quarterback, just don't see how you can pay a quarterback this much when he can't pass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't understand the point of being the highest paid, leaving your team ZERO chance at free agent signings. Especially when you aren't even the best player at your position; maybe Vick can pull a KG and become MVP and actually earn some of that money. Oh well, I've got more problems here in the Bay Area (49ers) to worry about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laughing-Man Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 McNabb got a 12-year $115 million contract. That beats them both. Link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatnipOligarchy Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 well, we already locked up Alge Crumpler for a while, and we were in good cap shape to begin with. If anyone's worth it, its him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceDogg Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 He's fun to watch, I'll give him that. But If I was building a team, he's not in the top five QB's currently playing that I'd pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BroChaos Veteran Posted December 24, 2004 Veteran Share Posted December 24, 2004 i hate vick, he sucks. so overrated. what is he averaging? somewhere around 2 picks and 2 fumbles a game. i'm sorry, but there are at least 5 other qb's i'd rather have than him. waste of money if you ask me. i'll guarantee you right now they will never win the super bowl with him. write that down.

DreAming in DigITal Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 The reason he throws picks and doesn't pass well in the NFL is because he has NO TARGETS!!!! I watched him through college and he has great touch and accuracy passing the ball, but he has nobody that hangs onto the ball in Atlanta....it doesn't matter though, becuase even without any recievers he can still put the entire team on his back and take them into the playoffs. Doesn't matter how it gets done.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imtoomuch Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 This is a big gamble on the Falcon's part. Vick is way too unreliable. He gets hurt a lot. If he couldn't run the way he did he wouldn't be half the quarterback he is now. He has great arm strength, but he needs to work on his accuracy and patience. When he's on he is amazing, but when he is off he is horrible. Personally, I don't think he's one of the top 3 QBs in the league. I like Vick, but I think sometimes he gets too much credit because he makes dazzling plays on occasion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adcmarti Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 10 years is just way to long :whistle: . Not real sure why they would sign that long of deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Circaflex Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 am i the only one that thinks he isnt that great? he scrambles so much hes bound to get blasted by some safety. If anyone should be paid that much i think mcnabb is the best all around qb in todays game manning might be the most consistent, but mcnabb is all around the best.

mattmatik Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 Being my team also, at least we locked up #1 pick. 585154788[/snapback] #1 picks in the NFL are highly overrated and in about 98.6% of the time they never amount to much. I'd rather the 49ers trade down a few notches to stock-pile some draft picks. We need so much help on the offensive line it's not even funny anymore. Back to Vick...he won't win a Super Bowl. I am confident you all have paid attention the past 15 years or so - not one Super Bowl champion was led by one single player. I hate the Falcons but if I'm a fan I'm pretty angry right now and I'd point all of it back to the Peerless Price signing. The guy hasn't done anything and they have so much money tied up in him. Also Warrick Dunn. TJ Duckett is proving himself to be a quality running back. Trust me, 49er fans are going through the same garbage with Kevan Barlow right now - one big season and they hand him a multi-year deal while Skip Hicks is on the sideline as a free agent making the minimum and has done alot more this year than Barlow.
