Hard for me to argue with any on that list. I wish that we had a top 3 pick this year, because it is time to start grooming the QB of the future in Philly.

Lucky Indy !

The only part of that list I disagree with is "A Ring Way". I'd downgrade most of those qbs. Why is Tony Romo a ring away but Michael Vick Mostly good?

[dawkins20]

I'd take Vick over Flacco, Ryan, and Romo any day. Schaub is a toss up. Dude is hurt more often than Vick.

amazing how wel Eli is playing. He may be in that Hall of Fame class with a win this weekend. Crazy how shit happens

[sfphillyfan]

Flacco shouldve been in the Super Bowl this year. Lee Evans flat out choked.

[Jukin]

Cam Newton is on par with Vick? Really -- after 1 season?

Which one would you take? I think we've seen the best of Michael Vick. Newton probably has his best years in front of him.

[Jukin]

I agree his future is great but to put him on par with Vick at this stage is premature IMO.

[Vet Turf]

Put a ring on Vick's finger and he is top 10. That group descriptions are poorly designed but the groupings aren't completely terrible.

[sfphillyfan]

I agree his future is great but to put him on par with Vick at this stage is premature IMO.

I agree. If the question is "what QB would you want to lead your team next year", I'd have to go Vick over Cam.

Totally agree .. that's the only category that seems off to me. Rivers yeah, but none of those other guys are in that category.

[kyfred]

Vick is mostly good. The knock on Romo, as with others, is they choke in big moments. I think a ring indicates they did not choke and overcame the stigma. Not saying I agree with ranking, but understand the premise

[eagle eye]

I'd put Jeff Garcia in the could go either way category, too.

Wait - the question is why is Cam Newton in the same bracket as Vick? I'd agree. Newton should be above Vick. Dude was a beast as a rookie. He had a better year than Vick.
