Actually cap hit is only
2017 15.913
2018 16.78
201916.78
2020 17.78......therefore reasonable -
The price - again - is $30.5 million if they keep him for only one year. That isn't reasonable, it just isn't. And yeah, the hit will be spread out a bit, but every penny of that $30.5 will hit the cap. The only way that looks reasonable is if you look ONLY at the 2016 cap, and doing that misses about half of the cap impact of keeping him for a year.
Same for keeping him for two years. $40.5 mill, all told, all of which comes off the cap sooner or later.
It's only when he gets to the fourth and fifth year of his contract that the whole thing begins to look reasonable. Till then, the impact is huge.
As for Vick's best season, when people try to compare across history I always point out that it gets easier and easier to play QB as far as running up big numbers. In 2010, Vick was 4th in passer rating, 5th in YPA, 13th in completion percentage, and had 4 fourth quarter comebacks and three game-winning drives. If the rules had been the same as today's he'd likely have done better than his stats that year.

You are an idiot.
The fact you would call someone an idiot on a fan post speaks to your level of character... to disagree is perfectly acceptable, but your response offers no value. I haven't anytime for a person of your ilk
Topic started not to support Vick, or TT for that matter-- more so to point out there are a lot of people who at the time would have clamored for Vick. Therefore the thread only points out if you had been a fan of Vick maybe you would take a moment to see that the state line isn't all that different... reason for the point... we are hard on TT because he's not elite - but he has comparable talent to previous QB's who were capable of being playoff caliber talent. That's all. Not standing on a soap box claiming either QB is the next hall of famer - just a comp for consideration

Would you take Michael Vick in his best rated year over Tyrod Taylor? If you would then I'd say Tyrod is capable.... in a year when the replacement options are far from exciting - Tyrod provides a middle of the pack option - the difference between QB 7-17 isn't a lot. And the price per cap is very respectable --- I've been torn but after further review I think keeping Tyrod is worth the risk, and a healthy offense may assist him in a return to 2015 levels or better.
2010 Vick vs 2015 Taylor - a wash

I will be very interested to see where the colts are in a couple years - I believe he will be an upper echelon GM... and if a coaching change is needed, I wouldn't be surprised if Dave Toub is their next hire.

They are not similar at all. Coming out of college, Wilson was already a great passer. If he was even Taylor's height at 6'1, he'd have been a 1st round pick at minimum, maybe even top 10. His question marks were all height. He did not have to learn how to play QB. Taylor was an erratic passer coming out of college with great mobility and a great arm. The next receiver he hits on a crossing route will be his first.
Ok maybe I'm not being clear - new here, so still getting the feel of how to post without writing novels... similar, as in short for the position, mobile, strong arm. I'm not saying he is Wilson. Wilson came out of college better with accuracy, reading defenses, and mechanically more sound. I'm not comparing them as their draft profile reads either. One was much more pro ready then the other. Hell, Tyrod was being discussed as a QB who would make his salt as a WR or RB possibly... all I'm saying is if Tyrod is our QB, maybe a person who has worked with Wilson can improve Tyrods game in certain areas, such as seeing the middle of the field, can provide a playbook tailored to a mobile strong armed QB. Essentially if Lynn isn't the OC, and Tyrod is the QB, possibly the best people to make the most of him are from a staff that had Wilson. Doesn't mean Tyrod becomes Wilson, but could mean we get the most out of Tyrod - and maybe improve upon his weaknesses---- the point was made in defense of the logic of interviewing the Richards coach.... not to debate QB's
Additional note - I was having an opinion of coaches on their list of interviews.... I'm not necessarily a proponent of any of them. If I were to have a choice... I'd prefer Dave Toub. He'd be the one I'd choose of all new or retread coaches to lead this team.....

I would love to see Whaley replaced by Chris Ballard and have him bring Dave Toub with him as HC

It doesn't deserve better because you don't agree? You know what I am interested in hearing? Or are you assuming? Is your opinion about Vick vs TT also based on assumption? Because Stats don't support that.... the average of Vick's 2 best years statistically vs average of TT only Two years as a starter....

5 Rush td 5 id say he isn't considerably better. So please- in the future, if you feel my post deserves the type of response you chose, just don't respond... Don't even read my posts if you don't care for my ideas. But if you do, please bring a little more of that factual and conclusive evidence.
