Don't any of yall kid yourselves. Of course this head case, just like his brother, just like so many other punks will wind up playing for some NFL team come next year. There are still some good folks in the NFL, but it becmoing more populated with this kind of "athlete".

Aug. 3, 2004 — Suspended from the university for the 2004 season on same day he pleads guilty to reckless driving and no contest to marijuana possession in New Kent.

:edit: There's a poll on Fox Sports about Vick entering the draft. The question is if Vick declared for the draft and you were GM what round would you pick him in. Out of 123017 people that have voted so far, 57% have said they wouldn't waste the pick on him. Guess I'm not alone in thinking this head-case is another waste of time.

Similar results of a poll at ESPN. This kid thinks he is great. Well personally, I don't think his brother is all that great either, except for speed. Plus he isn't going to last long, as he is thin and injury prone.
