"Stanback in the Michael Vick type of mold"- ESPN

Stanback is fast but not as quick as Vick. He doesn't have the arm Vick has but he has 10 times the character and better size.
 
See the beauty of the Ron Mexico alias is it's simplicity, it's like saying I'm too cool to give a name that isn't blatantly fake and I dont' care.

Do yall as fans truely believe this is true?

Me personally I do.:bow:

No. Michael Vick is a freak of nature. If Stanback was actually in the mold of Michael Vick, he wouldn't have been drafted in the fouth round.
 
Hello Brian Wright! Your Ron Mexico name, the ultimate disguise, is Pavel Djibouti.
 
Well most of what I read in draft reviews seemed to believe all our second day picks to be based on athleticism instead of skills I would say hone his athelticism, put him to work rehabing and then plug him in on every ST position he might work at.

From all accounts stanback is ten times (at least) the person ron mexico is.

So Ron Mexico can have behavioral/criminal lapses and still get a free pass.;)

Vick= cant pass Stanback= cant pass
Vick= runs fast Stanback= runs fast
Vick= pot smoking turd Stanback= upstanding citizen
Vick= smallish frame Stanback= big guy

only difference is one guy arrived on the overhype express and the other didnt

I hope he can contribute in the punt return game along with some special packages on offense has a WR/RB.... He's too dynamic not to get the ball in his hands.

Vick 6'0 215lbs
Stanback 6'2 216lbs

Vick wasn't overhyped. He is one of the most incredible athletes to ever play in the NFL. Atlanta for some reason thought he could be a great NFL QB. They still haven't given up on it and every year he promises he will change and doesn't. He is at his best when he is running with the ball. If Stanback was like that, the rest of the NFL would have been all over him.

The homerism is in full swing about this guy.

Dont even bother... talking about Vick around here is like supporting Hitler himself.

I'm not homering for him (Stanback) at all, and you are being a blind loyalist if you think Vick hasnt been the most incredibly overhyped sports player ever...the guys QB play has been nothing but mediocre, yet all we hear are excuse after excuse for the guy year after year...and he's a borderline train wreck off the field on top of it

he should have never been a 1st rd pick, let alone the #1 pick overall

Vick is an outstanding athlete and has a great arm but no accuracy. He just throws it up and hopes the wr gets too it first.

He was definately a first round pick but I kind of agree on the #1 overall.
 
Base on my login name, I'm now Karl Samoa.

and I don't even have the tan to make it work.:(
 
Vick has a million dollar arm and a 2 cent brain. He makes bad reads and doesnt have good accuracy.

Stanbacks arm looked impressive in the few clips i could actually find on him. But i'd say he is more like Michael Robinson as in he will get the ball in lots of different ways (kr,pr,wr,rb) AND maybe our emergency qb , so that Crayton can just worry about taking over once t.o and t.g are gone.

Fast, interesting prospect, prob would excell at positions other than qb. Def someone I will enjoy in madden lol

The lisfranc ankle injury makes this guy a definite risk. Great athletic skills, potential, and work ethic makes for a high ceiling. On the second day, everyone is a gamble. I am willing to bet on Ireland's judgement though.....


I am Ricky Malta! And I approved this comment.
