The New York Jets announced late today they signed former Philadelphia Eagle quarterback Michael Vick and have cut Mark Sanchez. According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Vick’s deal is rumored to be worth $5 million dollars for one year. The Jets would have had to pay Sanchez a $2 million dollar roster bonus had they not made the move by 4 pm on Monday.


Sorry Jets fans . . . (holy crap -- 5 million?????)

Whoo hoooo!!  :yahoo:

Maybe, but they'll pit up a pretty good fight.

I don't know who Sanchez is, but if he's the idjit that slid into his own guy hard enough to knock the ball out of his hands, he deserves going to Cleveland. I've been to Cleveland many times. It's the kind of town that's reserved for the mentally challenged.  :-)

Sanchez was the starting QB for the Jets for a few years and then lost the job to Geno Smith (Jets first round draft pick last year) and his own ability to utterly derp up the field.  And, yes, he's the idiot on the ground -- that play is known as the Famous Buttfumble  :lmao:

I lived just outside of Cleveland (west side) for about 8 months back in '86/'87 when they had a good team (now known as the Baltimore Ravens). Then I managed to escape!!

Good for Philly, but who's the moron that green lighted this decision?

Not sure . . . Rex Ryan? Whoever is their GM? Woody Johnson, the owner?  I think Ryan wants Vick and Smith to "compete" for starting QB and you know how well that always works.

I still can't get over 5 million for one year for Mike Vick -- that's a couple hundred thou for every interception he throws and every fumble he makes. Or, if he's the second stringer, that's a lot of cash to hold a clipboard!

And the day just keeps getting better . . .

What an idiot -- he just lost 10 mill this year because he's a Crips wannabe or worse.  Sure, he may get offers for one year deals with MAJOR incentives but that's all. Especially after Hernandez, I will be extremely surprised if someone goes after him with major cash after everything comes out (and you know there will be more). And he's only 27 so that rules out the Raiders.

Lots of teams are looking for backups and all of them are shelling out big bucks for mediocrity (at best). The Eagles gave Sanchez 4 million. I am speechless . . .  :thatsright:
