REDSKINS HISTORIAN Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Legendary NFL general manager Bobby Beathard, a cornerstone of the Redskins' glory years in the 1980s and early-90s, spent his last season in the NFL as a consultant for the Falcons in 2003. Michael Vick was in his third season with the Falcons at the time. I interviewed Beathard this week about Vick's return to the NFL after a two-year suspension for a dogfighting conviction. Beathard spoke specifically about how he thinks Vick will be used by his new team, the Eagles. Vick is expected to make his 2009 preseason debut on Thursday night against Jacksonville.

NewCliche21 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Not sure why this isn't in the ATN forum, but whatever. Beathard isn't like just some random player. He was a central, arguably the most important, part of our decade-plus dynasty, and his views on players holds a lot of weight with us on such a controversial topic. I feel that this is definitely the right forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveFromYellowstone Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 I gotta say I agree with him wholeheartedly. Vick is going to help the Eagles in a lot of ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spaceman Spiff Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Wonder what BB has to say about JC. I'm sure that'd start off a firestorm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDSKINS HISTORIAN Posted August 27, 2009 Author Share Posted August 27, 2009 Wonder what BB has to say about JC. I'm sure that'd start off a firestorm. Beathard also commented on the offseason trade situation involving Campbell and Jay Cutler. I'll post that in a day or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Larry Brown #43 Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 I haven't had a chance to listen to Beathard's comments, but somewhat related...I have wondered what Coach Gibbs thinks of Vick and whether Snyder consulted with Gibbs on the possibility of signing him...because don't forget Gibbs was also involved with the Falcons organization before he came back to the Skins. Since we apparently made no move in Vick's direction when he was available, I wonder if Gibbs had warned Snyder against signing him. I haven't heard anyone suggest that, but it would make plenty of sense considering Gibbs has a bit of history with Vick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
