>>>Does that translate that he will be a great NFL QB? Not necessarily<<<

Not necessarily. But he's got as a good a shot as anyone in the draft in the past couple of years to reach the "great NFL QB" level.

>>>A better Donovan McNabb<<<

Like I said, I saw both McNabb and Vick play a lot of games in college and IMHO, Vick has much more upside. Some called McNabb a bust after his first year and some will call Vick a bust after his first year too, but with experience, Vick has a chance to be a great one. It took Steve McNair 3 years before even scratching the surface, so it will take time for Vick also.

The NFL has undergone changes in the last few years. Teams are actively looking for mobile QB's. Look at Culpepper, McNabb, McNair, Brunell, King, Gannon, etc. Vick is the epitome of the mobile QB with a good arm.
