NFL DEAL OF THE 21ST CENTURY: GREEN BAY, Wis. -- The Green Bay Packers signed first-year starting quarterback Aaron Rodgers to a contract extension through the 2014 season on Friday. The deal will pay Rodgers more than $11 million a year and will include $20 million in guarantees, a source told ESPN.com's John Clayton.

You should be showing video highlights of the Packers versus Eagles playoff game, which answers the question from the OP: Aaron Rodgers has a contract through 2014 with HALF the guaranteed money as Vick.
Its not Vicks problem that Rodgers has a bad agent. Kevin Kolb got $21 in guaranteed money from Arizona and Vick is clearly better than Kolb, who has only started a handful of games in his career. If Rodgers' agent could only secure Kevin Kolb money for Rodgers then shame on him. It really has nothing to do Vick.
Well, you are completely avoiding the OP and the thread's question - is Vick worth it ? Compare records and QB ratings and SuperBowl wins.
Yes he deserves it. Most NFL players deserve it. Once the agents and lawyers take their cut and once the government chops that pile of money in half, he may have 15-20 million of guaranteed money left, and that's all he'll see of that $100 million before an NFL defense breaks his legs again or rearranges his rib cage again and closes his window as a professional athlete. From what I hear he still owes millions, so if he wants to keep a small percentage of his current lifestyle later in life, he better start signing endorsement contracts along with his NFL contract and find a decent financial adviser, or he'll be bankrupt again in his 40's.
thy deserve it because of taxes and expenses?? that's essentially your pathetic argument. i got taxes too, don't i deserve 100X more than i'm worth?

Like WildChild, you are avoiding the OP's original question regarding is he worth it ? Being worth something, and deserving something, are actually two completely seperate issues. Is Michael Vick worth so much more than Aaron Rodgers when the hard performance metrics do not even remotely match the incremental hard dollar difference ?
