Weren't they trying to get Michael Vick to become more of a pocket passer in Atlanta when they first drafted him? They wanted him to be able to use his legs of course, but not ALL the time.
If I remember correctly, they were working their tail off trying to get the guy to learn to throw the ball sooner and not to jump the pocket so quickly. They were also afraid of the fact that all of his running around will only shave years off of his tenure as a QB in the league and that he'd retire much too soon because of all of his running around.
