1st, thank Darryl that rumor is BS. (Mort said today its not true)

2nd, thank Darryl the Falcons released a memo to all teams saying they aren't trading or cutting Vick.

3rd, I honestly would have found a new team if that deal had happened.

Yep,Falcons are stuck with Vick for cap reasons

BtownBeers · January 24th, 2007, 08:28 AM

I found it hilarious, and honestly can't imagine how you would stay a fan of the Raiders if it ever happened.

Schaub would have been thrilled.

I heard that and let out a few four letter words and called Davis a few names. Then Mort made me feel a bit better inside. No, i would root against them.

In all honesty though, this can be discredited and anyone can say that this is not true but in fact could happen, maybe not this deal and maybe not the Raiders, but nothing can be ruled out. These types of rumors always start and get discredited and then come true.

Case in point, TO and Kearse becoming Eagles.

The Falcons would take a $23 mil hit on next years cap if they do anything with Vick. Thats a whole lot of cutting players and not being able to sign new ones. He's not going anywhere.

Wow, I didn't realize it was that big of a cap hit and don't care enough about vick to look it up. Looks like a different kind of contract may be out on him, lol.

lol, it was in the article you posted in this thread.

And yes, you don't have any cap hits for dead people.

BtownBeers · January 24th, 2007, 09:22 AM

???? This was the whole article

Update: Oakland has offered Randy Moss, Jerry Porter and a swap of 2007 first-round picks for Vick, FoxSports.com reports.
Recommendation: This report seems to be very early, but teams will obviously be calling the Falcons this offseason to see if they want to trade Vick after his disappointing season and troubled offseason.

BtownJay · January 24th, 2007, 09:26 AM

Ooops, sorry about that... nevermind... it must have been a different article i read about it.

Edit - yeah, my bad... it was the article from the "NFL News" section here. I knew it didn't take me much work to find it, thought it was yours.

BtownBeers · January 24th, 2007, 09:33 AM

Geez man, I thought I was going insane. Looks like its pick on and point out how stupid Beers is day on the rant.

Well after the Nick debacle I had to recheck myself, and in fact I do still have balls.
