Vick in roster update for 8/19?

[gamertom]

According to a post on Donny Moore's Twitter page Vick will be in the next roster update that comes out on 8/19

He would have been in 1st one, but I think he missed EA's 1st Roster Update by about 8 hours. If he signed during Thursday morning I believe he would have been in it. I'm glad EA has finally announced their intentions to include him in their roster update. Bravo EA. Bravo.

Not sure if this has been posted in another thread, but it contains Vick's ratings from 08 and those from this years game.

I originally said that a 72 was more fair for Vick, and EA apparently said that's he's a 73. Somehow they think he's better than Vince Young. I have to agree with them. Vick is clearly better than Young. I do however feel that his THA is way too low. In only 2 seasons EA says his THA has gone from a 78 to a 69. That kills his ability to start for the Eagles. If Donovan McNabb gets hurt its obvious that he will start for them, but only after Week 6.

He should be in the game, but really, any ratings for Vick are sheer guesswork. Nobody has seen anybody take two full seasons off and then come back. It's almost unprecedented in recent NFL history.

He's probably lost a step... but he might have lost three steps. Does a guy lose some of his arm strength when he doesn't throw a ball for 18+ months? Does his accuracy decrease? Does his footwork deteriorate when he has zero coaching for two years?

Nobody knows; and so anyone saying what his rating ought to be based on the guy he was in 2006 is talking out of their ***.
