I see your point about McNabb....but I think our looking at WR's right now is more about Shannahan not happy with what we currently have at WR than that we need to win now because McNabb is older. They are exploring the diffrent options and cost to improve our WR corp that he is clearly not happy with yet.

He also had one of the best QB in NFL history.

Jacksons stats his first 2 years in the league = 30 catches, 500 yds, 6TDs

Devin Thomas's stats after 2 years = 40 catches, 425 yards, 4 TDS

for all we know we already have a player better than him on our roster - one that we already spent a draft pick on. Groom our own players!

You make an excellent point based on your stats, it seems like alot of people miss Vinny although they say they don't. Vinny would of sold the farm to get this guy already. I beleive our WR's will step up this year better system & coaching.

Well, let's put it this way: if Thomas has even a 5% chance of becoming Vincent Jackson, we're not going to trade for Vincent Jackson.

Well, lets put it this way: if the WR's we had were impressive enough the coaching staff wouldn't be looking outside the team at WR's. Clearly they are not satisfied with what they see or have now.

What is WR Vincent Jackson Worth in a Redskins Trade? - Hogs Haven

Just something to read, 29 days before Training Camp opens.

Yes, lets.

Just pretend that Devin Thomas is the dog.

I concur, nice comparison about the stats, but we aren't part of the coaching staff or the FO. IF those guys aren't happy with what they had seen during OTA's then that is all we need to know. Devin might work out, but then again he might not. Shanny would know better than us. I say leave VJ alone. We need the draft picks and if Thomas is a bust we can draft a first rounder in the near future.

Stopped reading when he compared VJ to Brandon Lloyd

I would like the 3-way deal, but I don't like giving into the fat mans demands. If we could pull it off would a half hearted AH be better for the team or would VJ?

I agree hate giving in to *ss ^oles (can't even type his initials) demands, but if we sign VJ aren't we kind of giving into VJ's demands.
