It also speaks a lot to me that Tony Dungy has taken on a mentor role to Vick – makes me wonder if Vick really has learned his lesson and is trying to be a better person – I don’t see Tony Dungy reaching out to the likes of Pacman Jones and Chris Henry.

Also – his contract is no ‘reward’ as grannyann said above me – as far as NFL standards it’s barely minimum wage – no guaranteed $, and the whole contract is less than rookie Pat White’s contract from the Dolphins. While it’s certainly great $ compared to non-football jobs, it’s not that much in NFL standards.

Finally-strictly football speaking, he’s a good fit for the Eagles. McNabb hasn’t been able to run like he used to and the Eagles offense fits a run/throw quarterback – so should Vick stay out of trouble, he may serve as a good replacement when McNabb retires/gets transferred/benched/who knows what else.
