Hope it works out as well for them as our $100 million guy worked for us!

Seriously huge risk for the iggles when it comes to injury and guaranteed money.

Hope they shell out to Jackson too, then there system goes kaboom

I don't think it's even remotely fair to compare McNabb to Vick. McNabb was already aging, banged up, and past his prime when he arrived here.

Vick is still a young man that is playing like a young man and is just starting to hit his stride as a pro, if he continues at the pace he did last year. Vick is easily worth the money if he can keep performing like he did last year. I doubt he disappoints.

I see the negative firestorm around the net. Haters are gonna come out of the woodwork now. Factor away Vick's time in Prison, and you have the same situation as Peyton Manning; a 100 million dollar contract.

Not trying to open the Michael Vick Prison debate again, but i seriously think thats the only reason why people are bitching about his contract now....If he would have never went to prison, would people think he is worth the money? I think so.

For the last time, 31 is not young.

especially for an undersized guy who likes to get out and run, and has a porous offensive line. We shall see. I like redemption stories. BUT I still have apprehensions about his game.

Sitting out two years does make you comparably young. Plus outside of Chris Johnson no one worth a damn will be faster than him.

I think he's referring to Albert Haynesworth, fyi.
