As a Vick owner, this is the first trade mentioned in this thread that I'd even consider so far.I traded him for Forte, before the Jax game, wish I would have waited.
Then why post in this thread? Hell, why even click on it? It's labeled pretty clearly. Did you think the entire SP was anxiously awaiting the word of Multiple Scores and his personal opinion of Michael Vick?I wouldn't give a piece of used bubblegum that snails pooped on for him, he won't be on any of my teams.
Kinda short sighted to completely ignore the #2QB overall isn't it?I wouldn't give a piece of used bubblegum that snails pooped on for him, he won't be on any of my teams.

Who can you expect in return for Vick?
I think the whole point of the "sell high" principle is to get MORE value for your player than you think he'll ultimately be worth. If you ask for less than the perceived value simply because you think the perceived value is too high, you're doing it wrong.The only reason you'd look to move Vick is because you think he won't keep it up and/or will lose his job...and if you really think that your asking price shouldn't be as high as a top 15 wr.![]()
This is the conundrum. Do you trust he starts all season, and potentially beyond for dynasty, or not? He's certainly looked good in the Reid offense. Is this just an anomaly, and he'll 'regress to the mean' of his career, or is he having some kind of crazy 'Steve Young/Randall Cunningham' moment where the switch has flipped and he's going to become more of a passer with elite mobility, instead of a running back that sometimes throws, for the remainder of his career? I can't say I trust 100% that Reid won't flip-flop again at the first sign of trouble, but with each big game I expect he's buying himself more and more rope, that is for certain.In redraft, given how the Panthers have performed so far, if I felt Vick was a lock to start at least 15 games this year I'd probably have to consider doing that deal long and hard if I owned Williams and the Vick owner was willing to accept him. Dynasty it may make me pause more, but I still may consider it if I were 'a QB away' for this year.It simply comes down to whether you expect him to keep the job. If the gaining owner does, in a normal league I'd probably seek a WR like Jennings or maybe Nicks, or a RB like Forte or maybe DWill. Just try to find the owner who needs a QB and thinks Vick starts all year. I hope he does, but I'm far from certain.
Right...because if somebody said give me Sebastian Janikowski for Michael Vick I'm sure he'd say no.![]()
I don't see how Vick isn't a top 3 qb moving forward...so I'm not sure how you'd be getting more than he's ultimately worth. But fair point. I'm honestly shocked at how little he's going for per this thread.I think the whole point of the "sell high" principle is to get MORE value for your player than you think he'll ultimately be worth.

In the leagues I'm in where I'm seeing him shopped, it's typically teams that had him as a third(or fourth) QB behind one of the big 3-4. I'd wager very few owners are going to have the nuts to move Brady, Brees, Manning or Rodgers to play Vick the rest of the way.For those looking to sell - why are you moving the guy? He's been the best qb the last two weeks. Wouldn't it make more sense to sell your other qb?

Clearly you are a great fantasy football mind.I wouldn't give a piece of used bubblegum that snails pooped on for him, he won't be on any of my teams.
Perhaps, but he also looked dynamite against Green Bay and both of those games vs. the Lions and Jaguars were on the road. What is he supposed to do to impress you? 4 total TD's and over 300 total yards is an unbelievable game against anyone. Outside of the Top 5-6 QB's, there's no one I'd rather have going forward. He's on par w/ Rivers and Schaub.I would not be too greedy if you can get something.
Entirely too much Kool-Aid being drank for a player who's major triumphs have been wins over the lowly Lions & Jaguars. I also wonder just how much game planning Green Bay did for him prior to the week 1 game. Sorry folks, I chased this one too many times to come up empty.
Show a little remorse for hanging, drowning, and electrocuting dogs.What is he supposed to do to impress you?
Combination of upcoming schedule and years of inconsistency are what leaves me un-impressed. We have seen Vick play like this before - only to fall off the map. Don't get me wrong, I want him to succeed. He paid his debt to society. I just think that if you could get a Top 15 WR for him - run don't walk to get that trade done.Perhaps, but he also looked dynamite against Green Bay and both of those games vs. the Lions and Jaguars were on the road.

this is what I was scared of, him losing the job down the roadFUBAR said:It simply comes down to whether you expect him to keep the job.
Well, whether you think he will keep the job or not really boils down to whether or not you think his hot start is legit. If you think it's legit, and he will continue to play at an elite level, then you need not worry about his job security. However, if you believe his hot start is a bit of smoke and mirrors, then his job security should be a concern. If you're considering trading for him in the first place, it's likely that you believe his hot start is legit, and therefore you should not worry about his job security.this is what I was scared of, him losing the job down the roadFUBAR said:It simply comes down to whether you expect him to keep the job.
What reason do we have to think he doesn't? I can think of a handful of QBs who have performed better but that's it.FUBAR said:It simply comes down to whether you expect him to keep the job.

I'm thinking of doing exactly this. Getting rid of Brady for a top 5 WR and rolling with Vick the rest of the way. Food for thought, based on the strength of schedule, the eagles have the 3rd best for QB's. If you play in a league that awards more for rushing than passing, this should be a no brainer.5-ish Finkle said:In the leagues I'm in where I'm seeing him shopped, it's typically teams that had him as a third(or fourth) QB behind one of the big 3-4.

If he struggles at all, Reid might feel compelled to put the guy they expected to be their franchise guy back in.What reason do we have to think he doesn't?

Actually... we haven't seen him play like this before. Never in his career had he put up back to back 100 QB rating games. And now he has three.We've seen exciting things from Vick before, but we've NEVER seen him throw the ball like this.NCPanthersFan said:Combination of upcoming schedule and years of inconsistency are what leaves me un-impressed.
