Vick's Latest Team of Choice? The St. Louis Rams

PrintIt's been a busy day for Eagles quarterback Michael Vick. In addition to accepting the Ed Block Courage Award, Vick was also awarded a $1.5 million roster bonus, strengthening the team's commitment to keeping him around for a second season. Now, Vick has gone on the radio in St. Louis, hoping to spark some trade talks between the Rams and Eagles.
"I'm not saying it out of arrogance but out of confidence," Vick told ESPN Radio's local affiliate, via Mike Sando of ESPN.com. "I think I can be the difference maker on any team, especially a team like the St. Louis Rams, who need a lot of help and will get it based on their ownership and the General Manager they have who is a great guy and I know from Atlanta. I just think bringing the right pieces in, putting the right players in the proper positions and giving them the opportunity to win, I think premier players could turn any team around. Yeah I'm confident I could do that."
No word yet on whether the Rams are willing to trade anything for Vick. However, when your best options for starting quarterback are A.J. Feeley and Keith Null, chances are you do everything you can to acquire additional help. Vick's bonus payment tells you that the Eagles obviously haven't received any worthwhile offers for him yet, and are hanging on to him until one comes along. St. Louis has the coveted first pick in each round of the draft, so if they're willing to deal a third or fourth round pick, expect Philadelphia to jump at the chance. Don't hold your breath, though.

Funny you are!
May the force be with you.
Dreaming you are.
While I’d love a 2, there’s no chance that St. Louie gives up anything better than their 3, especially since their 2nd rounder is almost a 1st, but its a second. I’ll shut up.
Love the Yoda comment tho.
sorry, stupid me
that was supposed to be tabbed under dt3’s comment

It is short for a spanish term:
recostada en la cama, when translated to english means the brightness of the word. The brightness of the word or “Bible” basically stands for “The Truth”. Saying that he basically likes your post.
I don't know what it is about your face,

that's a pipe dream...
"Eagles fans are a passionate group who love their team," said McNabb, "if not the actual players. It's not like winning a Super Bowl before the first month of the season is the hardest thing they've ever asked of me. That'd be all those times they asked me to go kill myself."

If the Rams
take Bradford first they have no need for Vick as the pressure will be off for a couple of years whilst he plays and develops.
So who will Vick choose next?

Whoever interviews him, he’s going to say something to the effect of “I could help your team. As a starter. Act now! Operators are standing by.”

Vick would do
or say anything to start somewhere. Even if its with the Rams

How about
“I could start for one team that has a 34 year old QB whose skills are decling and an inexperienced backup and is a SB contender”
Oops sorry that is the team that could trade me!
