Could AH be on the way out?? We can only hope.

Re: V. Jackson "Prepared to Sit out season"
 

Rams stepped out.

Re: V. Jackson "Prepared to Sit out season"
 

Looking back at the 2007 draft, boy did we whiff passing on Patrick Willis, Adrian Peterson and Derelle Revis........LOL

[quote=tryfuhl;737542]So if this guy from SD radio is right.. we're close to landing VJ.. and sending someone out of the building

not saying he's right, as we've heard these types of reports before..[/quote]

That's the only reason I see them for turning down the generous offer from Minnesota....if they can get a top player who can contribute NOW. (or in AH's case, who can at least be in uniform...actual contributions are a crapshoot)

Minnesota offered a 2nd and another conditional pick...good offer.

If we can ship Albert out and lose nothing more than an additional 3rd-rounder, I'd support it. Even if he causes problems...we'll still get more on-field value with VJ over an unmotivated AH...and we'd have a problem child either way.

Seems like a no-risk deal for us.

Re: V. Jackson "Prepared to Sit out season"
 

two deals simultaneously to send draft picks to SD means that there's another team involved, at least as far as I take it.. so it's a 3-way deal or we're just going to straight receive something for some guy(s) from the team in order to get the picks

speculate on

Re: V. Jackson "Prepared to Sit out season"
 

With the RB we signed yesterday being a KR guy, releasing Johnson and saving some 2011 money plus Thomas having no role in the passing game I could see this being a Thomas-2011 2nd round pick for Jackson. Maybe also doing Haynesworth for a conditional 2nd or 3rd to Tennessee..

Who knows, I'm bored on a conference call so it's probably all my speculation.

I say keep Thomas, he will contribute this year. Get VJ and cut Roydell.

Re: V. Jackson "Prepared to Sit out season"
 

I know it's not likely related, but here is one other thought. When we cut LJ, and brought in a guy saying that ST was somewhat needed, I went hmmm. What if, we are throwing DT out there as trade bait? We certainly might get a 3rd rounder for him from some teams, who again are chasing potential.
Suppose the Rams traded a 3rd (very high probably) for DT, and we packaged that with our 2nd, for VJ.

Re: V. Jackson "Prepared to Sit out season"
 

Ive been hearing rumblings that the titans are close to a deal with the skins for AH......like ridiculously close. Hopefully this has to do with the VJ timeframe. unload AH to the titans for a second, and get VJ only spending a 2012 third, all the while losing a cancer. Thats a great day in my book.


FINGERS CROSSED

Re: V. Jackson "Prepared to Sit out season"
 

**** didn't see yours Paintrain. Here I thought I was throwing out a new idea :(

Re: V. Jackson "Prepared to Sit out season"
 

so why doesn't Schefter rule us out or in?

FWIW, 90 minutes left to Vincent Jackson deadline -- and there's no progress between Chargers and Vikings. 2 minutes ago via web

Re: V. Jackson "Prepared to Sit out season"
 

I like the above, and who says we couldnt get a 3rd from the rams, titans or even the VIKINGS, for Devin Thomas. Hell, id unload him for a 4th, trade AH to the titans for a 2nd, and give S.D. a 2nd and 2 4th rounders for VJ..............

In essence we lose a cancer, some dead weight and a 4th round pick (practice squad meat, and land a top 15 NFL WR.

Re: V. Jackson "Prepared to Sit out season"
 

Checklist of the teams who have been reported in the mix:

Viking - out, they signed Hank Baskett. :cheeky-sm
Rams - out.
Seahawks - no news.
Redskins - rumors.

If we could get a 2nd from the Titans for AH he would have been gone LONG ago.
