According to Jason Wilde of the
Wisconsin State Journal, the Packers are "
doing thorough due diligence" regarding Vick, and they have "had legitimate discussions" about the possibility of acquiring him.
This doesn't mean that a signing is imminent. But it represents a rare indication of a team attempting to engage in the delicate cost-benefit analysis that, as a practical matter, has been difficult for most teams to accomplish while focused on training camp.
And we've been intrigued by possible link between Vick and the Packers, even though most brushed off G.M. Ted Thompson's recent comment that
he hasn't ruled out pursuing Vick as Thompson characteristically keeping his cards close to his vest.
