PS I think if T.O. came to town he would be No. 1, DT No. 2, and Santana in the slot.

I think he has. If the last 2 offseasons didn't do it I don't know what will. I didn't here of any problems w/ him in BUF. He's 37 hasn't won a SB and I think he realizes he's not the same T.O we saw 5 yrs ago but still produces. We'd have to sign him to a 1 yr deal and he knows that. More importantly having McNabb at QB as opposed to Edwards might get him motivated for 1 more "big" yr. The problem is we have the AH headache and bringing in T.O would cause a circus because he's T.O, but I think he's been humbled enough to realize it's not about him, knowing that his place in Canton could depend on him winning at least 1 SB.

And yeah Tana would be in the slot, DT #2 and T.O #1

I could still see that happening as well Villian. I don't know if I like the idea but I do see it as a possibility.

Get him!

skinsnut · 06-30-2010, 10:11 PM

Is there any link or has anyone else heard the rumors that McNabb is working out with Vincent Jackson in Arizona?
And if so...are there any sources that indicate that this is anything more than due diligence on the part of the Skins?

Sam Wyche reported it on NFL Network yesterday.

Nothing to read into though. Just 2 football players tossing the ball around. This happens all over the league every day of the week.

Don't alot of guys workout with McNabb in Arizona. Doesn't he work out with one of the professional training camps? They run drills and such for the guys to get into shape before TC in July. I believe there are multiple pros at his, I remember hearing alot of guys worked out with him there in the offseason, team mates or not.

I could be wrong and it may just be his personal training.

mlmpetert · 06-30-2010, 10:37 PM

Hes gonna be suspended for like 4 games right? Hes a FA next year right? Why dont we just wait and get him next year by offering him big bucks. Would giving up a early pick for a guy that is gonna miss out on a 4th of the season make sense.

I really wanted Jared Gaither, but at the end of the day hes gonna be a FA next year. Just get him next year. This team has new coaches, a new GM a new offense and a dramatically new defense. Theres a big learning curve going on. Lets figure whats not working this year before making Vinny like decisions.

artmonkforhallofamein07 · 06-30-2010, 10:49 PM

I think it may be only a 2 game suspension. Go back a couple of pages and there is an article there that speculates a 2 gamer sus. they have good points to back up the arguement that it may only be 2.

I am waivering back and fourth on the idea of bringing him to DC, and I have a feeling this won't get done. No inside info just a hunch. LOL I never have inside info!

We could wait until next year, but:
(1) If the rumors are correct, some other team may pick him up this year first.
(2) There would be more teams interested next year (?) since he wouldn't be facing the 4 game suspension he is now.
(3) If the CBA is renegotiated, then SD can effectively renegotiate his contract themselves. Right now they're scared of the uncertainty next year.
(4) Not sure, but we may be able to give him a fat signing bonus in this uncapped year that we may not be able to later.
(5) He'd be one year older @ 28yrs.
(6) We're going to need him for the Super Bowl this year.

[personally i say we don't go for it. i don't care about snyder's money but draft picks are invaluable to a franchise and are always undervalued].

Also how much we can give him up front depends on how much he got paid last year.

I just watched multiple segments on nfl.com about the vincent jackson's trade. Apparently he wants more money than brandon marshall, and the trade market should be about the same with 2 2nd round picks for him. This is something I do not understand, Marshall is FAR superior to Jackson, not IMO, fact.
All the numbers support it, over the last 3 years, brandon marshall has averaged about 300 more yards per season, about 50 more receptions! and has about 1.5 more tds per season. That is all considering that Marshall has less years in the league, played in less games over those three season, started even less, is NOT being suspended 4 games, and had the poop king kyle orton throwing to him last year instead of the elite phillip rivers.
I'd honestly put him at a 2nd rounder period for trade value considering in his 5 nfl years has had 1 truly good year with an elite qb throwing to him, and a genius offensive coordinator as a head coach. And it wasn't even that good a year.
Please someone explain to me why jackson should be traded for the same and get more money instead of significantly less money and significantly less value
