Exactly, that's why he got so much up front as a bonus (30+ million).
This is a case of the Falcons locking him down and banking on his marketability as well as his athleticism. Every kid got a Vick jersey this Christmas and every network will want to televise the Falcons. They will recoup their money, don't worry.
Vick is certainly the new prototype of QB. The interesting thing is if he'll stay healthy enough to continue playing the way he does. One knee injury and he may have to learn to be a drop back passer.
