Vick is not a top fifteen QB. I don't think he's top 20. I would take all of the following QBs, in no particular order, without a second though over Vick.
Rodgers, Manning, Manning, Brady, Brees, Cutler, Ryan, Schaub, Dalton, Flacco, Luck, Wilson, RG3, Romo, Rivers, Roethlisberger, Newton, Freeman, Bradford, Smith and Stafford.

That doesn't even mention guys like Kaepernick or Foles who I would take over him as well but still have things to prove. In all, that's 24 QBs I would take over Vick without even thinking about it. There are QBs in the draft I would take over Vick as well.

I think I'd pay him the league veteran Minimum to be the Back up QB.... since he will only continue to regress from here.

Otherwise I am drafting one to bring along, Edwards and or Foles or another F/A can esily be the back up.

VICK is DONE as a starter
Just like we all thought he was done when he signed with the Eagles right?  God you guys let your hatred effect your bain.  Sure he very well might not get back to decent QB level but I sure wouldnt bet on it one way or the other till I see him with Kelly

In Vick's case, it should be a heavily incentive-laden contract, with him only guaranteed the league minimum and the rest based on time with the team, whether he's a backup, starter, etc., with if he did wind up having a big season then getting the big bucks.  This would be good for both sides.

Foles is better he outplayed Vick this year

I can easily name 20 QB's better WITHOUT naming Foles

Brady

Flacco
Rodgers
Brees

Russell Wilson
Kapernack

Alex Smith
Matt Flynn
Cam Newton
Matt Ryan

Matt Stafford

Kirk Cousins

and there are more I would take over Vick today!!!!!   I'd take 3 maybe 4 of the QB's coming out in the draft over VICK.... because at least they have UPSIDE.... there is NONE with Vick

So the past two years has taught you NOTHING... and you say I hate him. I dont .... I think you silly TATERHEADS are blind and dumb...

He clearl;y is NOT the QB he was and will never be again. YOu thinking he will is just plain pathetic..... and wishful thinking. IF he couldn't get it done on THIS team in the past two years.. why do you think he still can play again?  I mean you are thinking he will turn back the clock on his body? AInt happening.

I expect you to be on of those fans that will follow him to his new team this year

Vick will get to start somewhere, but I can say with 97% certainty it wont be for the Eagles this year.

WTF are you talking about? He WAS done when he signed with the Eagles. He had like 6 good games in 2010 and that's all you morons hold onto. So 6 games in 2010 is the "real Vick" despite how bad he's been through the rest of his 10 year career?

Please don't turn this into another Vick vs. Foles thread ... there are plenty of those already.  For the record, I am in favor of moving on from Vick but I acknowledge that there is at least the possibility, with Chip Kelly now here, that he restructures and stays.

So, my question here is ... assuming that Kelly decides that he can work with Vick, what do you think would be an appropriate pay reduction for him?  What is a reasonable salary for a starting QB with his history?  One that works for both Vick and the Eagles cap-wise.
$10 an hour without benefits

one thing is for certain neither vick nor alex smith is gonna agree to come in here and compete and possibly sit behind foles. no way its not happening when they know they can go elsewhere and start. they will have to decide if they want foles to start or not and if they want competition it would have to be with a rookie or another benchwarmer going against foles

So, you are admitting that Foles could beat out Vick or Alex Smith and that neither will be in Philly unles they are handed the starting job.  I didn't realize that you had that much faith in Foles.  All  this time I thought that you were just another Vick nutthugger. :roll:

He should be paid same hourly rate he got in Leavenworth.

That would be awful generous on the part of the Eagles.  I actually think that Vick should pay the Eagles.  There is no way that the Eagles have gotten their money worth out of Vick.  Vick stole over 40 million from the Eagles the past 2 seasons plus.  Those turnovers and whirlpool time were mighty expensive.

hard to say, mainly because there is gonna be teams out there that will want vick and we be willing to pay him. he will be one of the hottest FA on the market. just wait and see. anybody who says differently hasnt watched the crap thats at qb around the league on alot of teams plus teams also saw the beating that vick has been subjected to over the last 2 season and will think they can do better
All due to Vicks inability to do pre snap reads, and make the necessary adjustments.  Holding onto the ball too long.  These are Vicks inefficientcies...not the O lines. These things they will also see!   Any owner or GM  with a lick of sense will be hard pressed to want to take a chance on him with those issues and his injury history.

Then  there is the  personal issue that many fans ( of other teams)  that say  they  want no part of Vick on their team. So  contrary to what you  believe, not everyone is in concert with your admiration or  opinion of Vick.

As to what he should be paid? I don't know, what is the minimum they offer under the new CBA for aging , injury prone, veteran QB's? Whatever it is, that is what he is worth today.
