Default Vick in Buffalo
He's visiting Buffalo today for the second time in two weeks which could very likely mean a contract signing. I don't like this move. T.O. will be undermining Edwards by Week 3 clamoring for Vick to start when his suspension ends. On the other hand if Edwards plays great off the bat and you could bring Vick in for Wildcat and 5 wide sets it could be an amazing addition. Vick under center with Evans, Owens, Josh Reed, Roscoe Parrish, and James Hardy in a spread formation is impossible to defend. If you rush six you have man to man on all five receivers and no ones fifth best cover guy can match up with any of those guys. If you rush four they can spread the field and Vick can take off and run.

If he signs here, I would guess he will be the starting Qb by week 3.

That'll be tough with the whole 6 week suspension thing. If he signs, Edwards sure as hell had better have a good first 6 weeks.

Looks like nothing is happening today. Most are suggesting Vick will make his decision by Monday so I guess we'll know shortly. I'm torn on whether I want him to wind up in Buffalo or not.

If it's what T.O. wants, they should pursue/sign him. Keeping him happy is key, if history has taught us anything about him. If he's not happy, you have a headache on your hands the size of his bank acct.. That would be a sick formation with those 5 lined up acrossed the field. Only team that's nickel/dime package could contain it, would be the Eagles, of course. ....Joselio Hansen will turn more heads this year, and i'm really high on this Ikegwuonu kid (x-box) if he can survive preseason and make the roster. (srry, im good for at least 1 spin into the Birds)...

Buffalo needs all the help they can get. Edwards is absolutely horrendous. He's like a statue in the pocket and will more than likely be crippled by 2012 if he doesn't learn that timing is everything.

If they were to toss every player in the league to fall under this category, there wouldnt BE a league. Simply put, he's a great teammate to have when things are going well. You just have to strike pre-emptively and dump his a$$ before the wheels fall off. I can see him flourishing in Buffalo, either by himself or opening the field up for the other guys.
