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...

    • 100%. But there are a lot of goofs in here that have so invested their entire supposed fandom on Bryce being trash that you can't even have a discourse with them. I'm glad there are still normies in this fanbase
    • I asked him for the last 5 weeks.
    • It matters because we're still not done paying for him and we've spent a ridiculous amount of resources to build around him. Granted, the FO hasn't been good at making picks, but what we've spent on offense while ignoring defense isn't sustainable. At some point Bryce has to be able to elevate the guys around him and work with what he's got.  I've made it no secret, I don't think he's a future franchise QB that takes this team to the SB. I think he gets you right on the cusp of playoff team, and maybe a weak division win or a WC, but serious deep runs aren't going to happen. I see him as the king of perpetual mediocrity. And in a couple of years we have to decide if we pay him like a franchise guy. We've paid lots of guys based on potential and it hasn't worked out well for us  We'll see if he has "it" and can lead the offense. But I think it's going to get interesting when we have to stop focusing on giving Bryce all the tools and put resources into the defense so that we don't have 3rd string and PS guys as our starters.  And as far as the Chiefs being 14-1, they've gotten more help from the refs this year than the Broncos in SB50.
