Report: Redskins are pursuing Vincent Jackson

CRedskinsRule · 07-14-2010, 08:07 AM

I still like the concept of a three team trade, where we trade Haynesworth to a 4-3 AFC team(or seattle) and they send picks to San Diego and we get Jackson.

I really don't want to give up any more picks. Although, with a potential lockout, and a substantially poorer draft pool due to all the juniors that came out this year AND the likely hood that many juniors will not come out due to the possibility of a lockout (remember they declare their intentions in January). Giving up a 2nd next year would not be the end of the world.

At this point I'd rather have T.O. with out throwing away picks

NYCskinfan82 · 07-14-2010, 02:33 PM

MS has said all the time competition and if that's true then TO should be here based on that alone IMO. But like I've said from the begining whatever the FO sez I'll roll with.

HTTR.

Agreed

I really hope that DT can step up to become that receiver that we saw in the previously posted vids.. it's obvious that he's capable of it athletically. He could be our own Brandon Marshall and that's exciting. Though why balk at having 2 if possible? Think Johnson/Housh, Fitzgerald/Boldin, etc

Remember the trio of Monk, Clark, and Sanders? They each went for a 1000 yards in the same season a few/2 times. I hear tell they were called "The Posse" a mythical group of wide reicievers that this team has not seen for a long time. They won the big one as a unit 2 times. Those guys were good.

So yeah I could imagine having 2 guys.... hell why not three?

pm some pics.. closeup if possible

Well we drafted all three of those guys and would assume that is the hang up to trading picks. I guess thats what people want to see. Drafting 3 studs.

Free agency changed the game and the way rosters are built though.

I have said it before, and i will say it again. I am behind the FO whatever they feel is a need go for it.

FredskinsVA · 07-14-2010, 10:52 PM

Wow! I just made my 4th post. I can't wait to be a starter and eventually in the pro bowl. I will really show how much time I have on my hands, 6,279 posts is commendable and I appreciate your insight. Keep up the good work, I come for redskins news here first. I'm hoping to hear that we land T.O. before the start of training camp.

Post count only really matters when your 2nd post is an ad disguised as a post. Your going to get dismissed on any decent board that cares about adding valuable contributing members. Trying to sell something on your second post is pretty anti-indicative of someone who is going to be a valuable board member. Something to keep in mind.

FredskinsVA · 07-14-2010, 11:16 PM

Oh ok thanks for explaining. 7,147 posts is incredible. I hope some day I can reach that magnitude. Since selling a redskins jersey on a redskins fan site is shamed upon, I'll refrain from the offer. Second, the offensive line better protect McNabb because no QB can play behind that blanket. Right now, our WRs would be good in the MAC. Our stable of running backs is impressive if we were entering the 2008 season. We don't have the backers to play the 3-4 this year, and not to mention the willingness of the Oline. I hope things fall our way this year, should be an interesting season.

Seriously, you better hope your jerseys never get caught up in customs, or worse that you get caught selling them.

And that kind of talk does not sound like a Redskins fan.

I don't see anyone around here touting post counts. In fact I can't think of one episode of such an occasion. The only thing a post count indicates is whether a member actually sticks around and contributes. .... Oh never mind. You're an idiot. Go sell your crap somewhere else.

artmonkforhallofamein07 · 07-14-2010, 11:24 PM

Well said, FRPLG.

Fred welcome to the board, but if you have been on this site and trolled the threads you may realize that there is good stuff to talk about here.

You have four posts 2 of which sold something and 2 of which insulted members.

What do you expect bud?

A hearty welcome and here is my credit card number so I can get the jersey?

Alot of us talk here frequently for skins news and opinions. Some guys meet up before games, and I come here to get some Skins talk being a displaced fan in the SC. Alot of northerns here just not many Redskins fans. were but turned to the Panthers when they got a team. Most locals here care less about the NFL and more about NCAA Football.
