I wouldn't hate the move.

Drew Brees is firmly entrenched as the starter. There's zero threat of Vick taking his job, he won't have to be the face of the franchise, low risk/high reward situation.

The only reason I hated him when he was with Atlanta is b/c he always beat us

If anyone can get a player in football shape fast, it's Tom Shaw. Hopefully he gets Vick ready to roll, and the saints pick him up.

Drew Brees was fricking horrible on 3rd and short and 4th and short last season. Not really his fault per se, but he poses virtually no run/sneak threat like an Aaron Brooks did.

Vick would open things up to a ridiculous amount. I would go so far as to say that a Vick run/pass option rolling to the left would be virtually unstoppable - especially when you put Reggie and Pierre in the backfield and have Shockey and Lance as short pass options (in addition to Vick's scrambling). That roster/play would have at LEAST a 90% success rate if practiced and oiled to perfection.

If we convert on 3rd and short last season we go 13-3 and have home field advantage. Signing Vick would be a wonderful move.
