The Facts:
New HC Chip Kelly has been trying to sell that his quarterback job is an open competition, with Vick and Nick Foles on “even” footing. But Eagles wide receiver Jeremy Maclin said from what he’s seen so far, there’s a clear pecking order. “Right now, you’ve got Mike going with the ‘ones’ and Nick sprinkling in some reps here and there, so,” Maclin said, via Les Bowen of the Philadelphia Daily News.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
While that hardly qualifies as a surprise based on economics and experience, PFT's Darin Gantt believes the fact Foles is getting just a “sprinkling” is telling. Kelly told reporters after his first minicamp in April the reps were “even,” but reporters weren’t allowed into the practice to see it with their own eyes. But Vick remained confident, saying: “This is still my team.” That feeling seems to extend to Maclin as well -- and beyond. Vick's is the 17th QB coming off the board in
MyFantasyLeague.com's current ADP. It's looking like a pretty safe bet.
