The-Hogs.net - Washington Football Discussion, Redskins to Commanders Era

Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune reports that negotiations are over between LaDainian Tomlinson and the San Diego Chargers. Now all he has to do is decide whether he wants to put his John Hancock on a restructured contract that will lower his salary.

I am glad T.O. left the NFC East and the NFC for that matter, but curious if Tomlinson would land in the NFC or the East. The Cowboys have Jones/Barber, but the Eagles lost Buckhalter and the Giants lost Ward, Bradshaw is serving 30 days in jail and in my opinion doesn't pose much of a threat. Could you picture L.T. in one of those uniforms?

Tomlinson's better years are obviously behind him, but he is still one very good back.

If it's true that Drew Brees is lobbying to get him, New Orleans could be a great fit to pair with Reggie Bush and Pierre Thomas in what is already the number one offense.

What, no Skins interest?

Update: Chargers pitch restructured deal to LT

Monday, the team and Tomlinson's agent, Tom Condon, both said that the parties are in the "final stages" of negotiations, but the latest offer is not "take-it-or-leave it."
