Marcus Vick, i'm not saying draft him but if he gets undrafted i think we should nab him.

I wouldn't touch him.  This guy probably wants to start, and seems like a cancer and a problem.

It's only worth taking a risk on guys that are great talents (Ricky, T.O).  Like them or hate them, these guys have the possibility of really helping your team.  I just don't see an upside with Marcus Vick.  I think that even if he does straighten up,(which I don't expect) that he still sucks.  He's not half as good as his brother, and I don't think he's that good either.

If we can get him at the price of an undrafted free agent, it's worth the gamble.  The kid's got some talent and could develop into something special.  His off-field issues are a major concern, which is why he'll go on Day 2 if he goes at all.

What makes you think this?  (I'm not busting on you.  Seriously, I'm just curious what you've seen from him.)  Everything I've seen is that he's not that good on the field, not to mention he's a headcase.  He doesn't seem to make good decisions in the game.

He's got a much stronger arm than his brother and is just as fast on his feet.  He's the type who needs a lot of developmental work.  I can see Saban signing him as an undrafted free agent and him spending 2006 on the practice squad before going to NFL Europe..... if he can stay out of trouble.

Reports from the combine were that Marcus Vick scored even lower than Young on the Wonderlic. So not only is he arrogant and a total jerk, he's also monumentally stupid.

I don't think he'll go undrafted, though. Too much arm strength and too much in the Vick name for someone not to take a chance on him, probably early day 2.

This is true.  He had the lowest score of all the QBs.

I would not say his arm is as strong. He is a better passer though.

No way do I want anyone with the overrated, and thug life name of Vick on this team. I would really think Saban is smarter than that!!!!!  Angry

How about Marcus Vick as a backup?

How about we get someone who has talent instead of a below average QB with an IQ score that matches his jersey number?
