ChickenMonkey 07-23-2009, 11:29 PM Id love to see Vic as a redskin, he already knows the WestCoast Offense.
For everyone saying no to Vic!!! Then who takes the reins if Campbell doesnt
show he's worthy??? Todd Collins(NOT..the offense has changed and he isnt a West Coast guy) Colt Brennan(If he was ready he'd be atleast the primary backup already)
Bring in VIC, hes a vet (at minimum hes the cheapest starting caliber backup QB out there),

Got to be honest, if Vick came to Washington I might have to look for another team to pull for. I have been a Skins fan since I was five years old, but I do not know if I could support them if Vick came aboard.

I love that idea
RedBar 07-24-2009, 12:07 AM Definitely a fair deal for him.
I am not so sure about that Matty. I know of people who have done things more serious, people in the league ,who have not spent the better part of three years of their life incarcerated and lost potentially more than a hundred million dollars. I DO NOT CONDONE WHAT HE DID ONE IOTA, but sentiments aside, human life is the most precious thing. There are people in many cities and rural communities that are obviously neglecting, beating, fighting, and abusing their animals and we are lucky if they are given a summons and the animals are taken away. I know this. This guy did something very wrong, he HAD to pay a price, it was a very high price, the highest price anybody has ever paid for that enterprise. If he is remorseful, I think he should be allowed to try to repair his life, his name, and his conscience...just not in Washington.

Your thoughts on where Vick lands and will he start at some point this season? Good timing for him he can get on before camps start.
For the record, I'm not a Vick fan at all.
On the Dan Patrick show today they spent a lot of time talking about how the Skins were the most likely team to take him. One of the comments was, "They don't have any players that can take it to the house. The need a play-maker". The only other team they mentioned was the Raiders. Sucks that the Skins are mentioned in the same sentence with the Raiders when it comes to flashy free agent signings.
GMScud 07-24-2009, 12:16 AM As far as I am concerned Vick can go anywhere but Washington.
Wherever he goes he will bring a media circus. I don't know if you want that in a backup. Therefore someone who wants him to start may take him. Maybe someone like Tampa.
However, he hasn't played a down in some time. I'm not sure that he would be effective, at least at first, even in the Wildcat. I'd make the same argument regarding his shift to another position, etc.
I'm surprised that he only got 4 weeks suspension.
Really? I don't get the 4 game suspension at all. Vick already lost his credibility and reputation, his fortune, and two years of freedom. He's missed 32 regular season games over that span as well. He committed some horrible crimes, and suffered some horrible consequences.
I think the 4 game suspension is stupid. What metric did Goodell use to determine 4 games was appropriate? Did he look at everything that's happened to Vick since his conviction and say, yeah, that's about right, but I think we should throw on 4 more weeks just because. Obviously, his jail sentence aside, a 4 week suspension is waaay too light for Vick's crimes. But he's been put through the wringer over the past 2 years. Why a 4 game suspension at this point? Makes no sense to me.

I did not catch the show, and am not doubting what you overheard. But I would take that as nothing but a cheap rumor at best.
The SKINS have stated there position (No Interest) on Vick before and I see no reason for that to change. And I certainly hope nothing has changed from the clubs point of view.
I guess time will tell. But I think his chances of landing in DC are slim and none.

I agree. Wholeheartedly.

Which one is it? Slim or none? :)
Anyway, all 32 teams right now are not expressing any interest publicly. They're all waiting to get the official ruling from Goodell. Methinks that may change once he's officially reinstated.

I think the 4 game suspension was for public relations only. As you've stated, Vick has already lost a LOT.
