Hello, Sports world just wanted to give a brief introduction to who I am before I talk about Michael Vick. First, my name is Nathan Gomez also known as The Fantasy Guru; Im One of the Columnist on Adams Point of View. This is going to be my First Post on the Blog and I hope guys enjoy my posts and listen to my Fantasy Advice.
The Philadelphia Eagles put a franchise tag on the versatile quarterback Michael Vick for at least one more season. The Eagles will keep the 2010 Comeback player of the year by paying him roughly $20 million making him one of the five highest-paid NFL quarterbacks. Michael gave a very humble quote on NFL Networks "NFL Total Access" when he asserts, "I hate to re-live the past, I always want to move forward, but everything happens for a reason. Being a part of the Philadelphia Eagles, having the type of season I had, being around the type of players I've been around, and having the type of coaching I've had over the last year and a half has been destined." He's changed a lot from August 2007, when he was pleaded guilty to federal felony charges and served 21 months in prison. Now with Vick being franchise tag and waiting on a long-term contract agreement; What are the Eagles going to do with Kevin Kolb, the highly anticipated player coming into the 2010 season? Kolb was ready to take the Eagles to the promise land in the pre-season, but during week One, Kolb was tackled by Packers linebacker Clay Matthews, and sustained a concussion. Now with Kolb back and ready for the 2011 season he is on the trading block wait for a team to play for. Kolb has made it clear that he wants to be a starting in 2011, and I see a couple of teams looking into trading for him, and they are The Cardinals and Seahawks. I see the Cardinals as the right fit for Kevin because of the slow pace style of play the cardinals run. In Philly Wide outs Jackson and Maclin are elite speed receivers; as in Arizona, Fitzgerald and Breaston are better possession receivers, Kolb should thrive in the Westcoast offense. The biggest factor I can see why the Cardinals should trade for Kolb instead of Drafting the Heisman Winner Cam Newton, is Experience. Thats what the Cardinals are lacking is a good experience QB. Kolb has backed up Mcnabb for years and Vick last year. While Kolb hasn't played in huge pressure situations, he has been a part of the Eagles for a few years and has been in the playoff atmosphere more than once. When the time comes when Kolb and the Cardinals have a chance to make the playoffs, he won't be scared out of his mind like many other quarterbacks are. Newton just doesn't fit the Cardinals offense they need a pocket passer, like Kurt Warner was, not a Speed Qb like Newton. Getting Kevin isn't going to be easy The Cardinals are going to have to give up there first round and possibly even a third round pick in the draft this year. I really think its worth it and The Cardinals fans shouldn't be mad at them if they end up doing so. Thats my take on Michael Vick's Franchise Tag its a lot more than just Vick. I want to hear what you guys Think about this please reply, Thank for the time.
