That action in itself not only tells me how screwed things were under Vinny, but how shitty we ourselves are as talent evaluaters.

Mr wonderful and I are facebook frineds! LoL I agree bud. I am not trying to be a talent evauluater.

What if we are wrong though and Tana is the one they want to move to the slot? There is a chance for that to be the case.

Another thing is, and we have all known this for years. We do not have a bonafide NFL caliber #1 WR. Vincent is that guy, and they see a chance to make a move to change that.

I am not saying I want to trade the farm for VJ, I am just bringing up points as you did, and I like bringing questions to the board even though they often go unanswered!

"All it takes is a major preseason injury to any dominant DT in a 4-3 system and we're looking at possibly a 1st rd pick for AH (we'll take a big hit cash wise as part of the deal but what else is new). Shanny may not want to give away our 2nd rd pick till he's gotten what he wants from AH."

Agreed, but the guy could come in and all could be forgotten. If he comes in shape and open to learning this D then he is here.

That is the best case scenario, I think your side is another side of being a good scenario.

You can apply the training camp injury to the Vincent Jackson trade situation as well. One injury to a top guy could get the Chargers more in terms of picks. That may be what is holding the Chargers from pulling the trigger on some sort of deal now.

I think they are asking a bit much. VJ isn't in the Brandon Marshall trade range for 2 2s or even a first right now. He is a step between Marshall and Santonio Holmes range. A ?? character guy, who has a suspension on the looming at the begining of the season. I would have taken SH over VJ for a fifth choice this year.



**SMOOT**

Can a player be fined daily for missing days in training camp? Or does that not apply to Mcniel or Jackson because they have not signed thier RFA tendered deals?

Also : Has Carlos signed his tender?
