Mutt...
I totally agree....This is an excerpt from one of the Atlanta Journals Sports Writers columns yesterday.....
By now, the NFL has seen enough of Mike Vick to be scratching its collective head about this: Why in the world weren't another dozen or so teams, at least, competing creatively and vigorously with the Falcons to pry the No. 1 pick away from San Diego in the 2001 draft?
Sunday was a great day for the San Diego side of the Vick trade, too: LaDainian Tomlinson, whom the Chargers took with the Falcons' original No. 5 pick in the '01 draft, rushed 37 times for 220 yards and caught 11 passes for 51 yards as the Chargers beat Denver to take the AFC West lead.
Calculator, please. Between them, Vick and Tomlinson combined for 393 yards rushing and 617 yards total offense in two overtime victories. Pretty good return for one day from one trade.
