I wouldn’t give him a job cleaning up bathrooms at the Chevron station.

He gets $130 million and uses it to torture dogs? What a low-life POS...put him back in jail for life.

Vick was always a second-rate QB. Lotta flash, made some big plays, but that’s it. And staying healthy was always a problem for him, as it is for all QBs that look to run before passing. He was touted by many the so-called experts as someone who’d “change the position (of QB) forever.” but non surprisingly that never happened.

Yes. Vick was persectuted by the new castrati in the media. To be sure, I think what he did was sick and twisted, and I’d never do it......but hosting dog fights doesn’t warrant two years in prison and a ruined reputation and means to make a living. Leonard Little killed a man in a drunk driving incident and he served no jail time, and never missed an NFL game.

I’d hire a dog before I hire that trash. A dog’s life is worth far more to me than his.

I would not hire him this year that is for sure. I would have to observe him for a few years and then see if he stays out of trouble. I am all for people who do their time and then get back to good graces. It is too soon though.

Depends on what my QB situation looked like.

If I had a couple of journeymen or an unproven rookie starting, yeah, I'd sign Vick in a heartbeat.

He's only 30 years old, no injuries, and is still in good physical shape. Plus he matured in prison. I really see Vick as coming back like Randall Cunningham did with the Vikings.

He’d raise the moral standards of several teams.

He’s a great athlete but not much of a QB. I don’t see much upside unless maybe he can return kickoffs.

I’d hire him just to piss off PETA.

I’m surprised Jerry Jones hasn’t traded away Tony Romo for Vick.

Yes. In a minute if his game skills were what they usd to be and he seemed to genuinely be over the crime thing.

If he fit a need, didn't kill my salary cap, didn't harm my bottom line, and was likely to help the team win more games... then yes, of course. No other considerations matter.

Unfortunately for MV, few teams will be able to see him meeting all of those criteria. Top teams won't risk their current chemistry, and he's not likely to help an 11-win team become a 13-win team. Most of the handful of teams with QB issues have already addressed those concerns in the off-season, and nobody wants to upset the (expensive) new guy they just brought in.

Also, hiring Vick means quickly rewriting the playbook, and basically tossing many of the plays they've already worked on in camp. Only Miami and New Orleans are likely to have enough "wildcat" style plays in their current playbooks, and the Saints are not about to upset both Brees and Bush by bringing in Vick. The Phish are probably still surprised at knocking the Patriots out of the playoffs, and don't want to mess around with whatever chemistry they found last season.

No way would I consider him. His sadistic treatment of animals revealed him to be a sociopath. Sociopaths do not change and will always remain dangerous.

No need to have play. It is not like the NFL lacks in recruits.
