He won't be sitting the bench too long after Week 6(thats if Goodell fully reinstates him) because they are paying him a decent amount of money for one thing and the second year is an option year, so they'll need to see what he can do still if they decide to pick him up for that second season.

I disagree. The wildcat formation was good for about a game and a half last season for the Dolphins...everything else, it was just a play or two during the season. The Ravens exposed it's weakness and then the wildcat died. Maybe Michael Vick will bring it back for a while, but it won't be long term.
I think he will be successful in Philly but not with the Wildcat.

I can't, Vick's already 29, no way is he the future. But I do think we should be searching for another QB of the future though...

He will do as good as he did with the Falcons and not get them to a championship.

Yes because Alge Crumpler and Peerless Price were just Super Bowl caliber players. I'd say he did pretty well with what he had. Not saying he is a great QB, but that was never going to be a Super Bowl team

I've already heard that McNabb AND Kolb have no chance of their spots being taken (unless Vick somes back and is GREAT). So this year i dont see much, if anything.

I disagree....Vick, with the right frame of mind, proper work ethic, and the tutelage of Andy Reid could get 8-10 more years of NFL football out of his body.
I don't remember who said it, but Reid's ultimate goal here could be to mold Vick into the QB we all thought he could be when he was selected #1 overall. Vick has admitted that he was lazy in Atlanta, was the last one in the building, first one to leave, and that he survived on talent alone. Talent alone got him a .590 winning percentage and 3 pro bowls.
Also, I completely disagree that Vick won't be used other than as a backup QB. As somebody already pointed out, the wildcat phenomenon is one of the most overblown things in football today, and the Ravens did shut it down against the Dolphins. However, I believe Vick is the ultimate wildcat player, and Reid is creative enough to run some things that nobody has ever seen before. My opinion is based on nothing other than a gut feeling, but I believe the Eagles offense has the potential to be extremely dangerous and almost impossible to gameplan with the addition of Vick. Coach Reid said on Friday that "He will contribute. And you can ask defensive coordinators on other teams whether they're worried about that." You don't risk alienating your fans and sponsors to sign a guy that will cause controversy just to sit him on the bench as a backup.
Also, I don't think Kolb has very much time left with the Eagles. I confess I don't know much about him, but what I do know of him leads me to believe he's not anybody's QB of the future....maybe somebody's backup QB of the future.
