This is just crazy. Why bring him in when he's out two more games and our QB just put up a ton of yards with the WR's we have. Seems stupid to throw away draft picks and the salary to come with it. He wan't 9+ million a year.

Hypothetically, I think that it all depends on what we would give up and how long of a contract we sign him to. If we can get him at a reasonable price and can sign him to a longterm deal, it would be a solid move imo.

The Chargers want a 2nd and a 3rd for VJ ...
The Redskins need to hold on to their picks ...
Hacksaw is a Padres beat reporter that is the source of this report ...
There muti-reports of VJ to Minny being a done deal yesterday, the 1st reports came from a Padres beat reporter named Hacksaw....

It does sound crazy, but Armstrong got dinged today and we don't have that many other options at wr. Like I said, it makes sense if we can get him at a reasonable price. A 2nd and a 3rd rounder is NOT reasonable.

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

Maybe ... but then again ... what if it were Jackson in the corner of the end zone instead of Armstrong last Sunday? TD ?

What if it were Jackson in the end zone instead of Galloway ? TD ?

Not that I'm comparing Jackson to the likes of Andre Johnson, but look at how Johnson killed us ... and big tall receivers do offer a great deal of help in certain situations, (especially red zone) and I think that Vincent Jackson would certainly be an upgrade and an immediate #2 next to Moss, or serve as the #1, freeing Moss up to make even more plays.

Now, after watching an interview with Jackson not long ago, I came away with the feeling that this guy is extremely intelligent .. articulate ... and he offered no excuses for the DWIs ... he said it was two huge mistakes that he guarantees will never happen again ... and he was very sincere sounding.

I don't think this guy is a trouble maker either ... I think in this particular case, he's in the right, while the Chargers are in the wrong with this guy's contract commitment measured to his performance.

Given our lack of success in drafting WRs ... I think Jackson could be a real, long term asset .... 27 years old ... 6' 5" and does have deep speed.

I wouldn't trade the entire farm for him ... but a few cows and a couple of acres .... I'd pull the trigger.

Ray, im so wit u on dat


So then what are we going to do when we land this WAY over hyped WR and he gets his third DUI and goes to jell and is suspended by the NFL for a year (after his jail term). The only thing we would have going for us is the chances are he would got popped in Virginia, where you can have like ten DUIs w/o going to jail.

He has had two DUIs he WILL get a third, not might, but will!

This isn't a Andre Johnson or Randy Moss type WR. He is simply not an elite WR and will demand to be paid like one. Heck he isn't even a Santonio Holmes level WR and the jets got him for a 5th!

VJ will be way too expensive in salary and draft picks, is way over hyped, and is a third DUI waiting to happen. WHY ARE WE EVEN CONSIDERING HIM!!!!!

By the Way, Satana Moss would still be the #1, VJ would be Alvin Harper.

no deal. Our roster is extremely old at this point and we will need a huge turnover in the next 2-3 years which requires as many draft picks as we can aquire. We are already minus a 2nd rounder next year for McNabb.

No that was this past years 2nd round pick. We lose probably a 4th this year if he keeps producing like he has.
