This creep should be in prison.

Likely will end up there.

What a headline! You get fired from your team for being a bonehead, but you "decide to turn pro."

Marcus will end up at another position.....if he lasts that long.

He's a punk....like the rest of the Virginia Tech squad.

He's screwed.

Personally I would have opted for D1-AA or something else.

Look for him to be a 2nd day pick, probably by a team that has a veteran QB but the end is near (Arizona anyone?) who can develop him as a project

Then look for the "project" to sputter out after a season or so. The Ryan Leaf Syndrome.

A ticket for 38 in a 25 speed zone seems awfully petty.

They could give everyone a ticket for that.

Must have been trying to meet their quotas.

Or maybe he showed his ass to the cop, a much more likely senario give the POS we're talking about.

I don't think so.

Vick won't have things handed to him, ala a big ass contract, like Leaf did.

He will have to earn his spot to even be put on the team, much less the field.

The next Ryan Leaf MIGHT be at UCLA right now with Drew Olson.

[ I] "look forward to proving my athletic ability at the professional level. I believe I am ready for this challenge"

he was caught on tape stomping on the left calf of Louisville All-American defensive end Elvis Dumervil after a tackle.

Vick was suspended from school in 2004 because of several legal problems,

Vick had been stopped for driving 38 mph in a 25 mph zone and driving with a revoked or suspended license on Dec. 17.

Vick's license had been taken away in August 2004 when he was cited for reckless driving and marijuana possession,

another conviction for serving alcohol to underage girls

Good enough to be a "pro". I guess.

"Look for him to be a 2nd day pick..."

Maybe he'll be Mr Irrelevant. For once, it would be a fitting choice.

nah.

I don't think Davis will go for it.

They need a QB right now, not a project.

Dallas should draft him. He should fit in.

Yet another drugged-up thug trying to turn into a professional ball player.
