Report: Redskins are pursuing Vincent Jackson

GusFrerotte · 06-29-2010, 09:53 PM

I personally wouldn't go for the trade if I was Allen. You need to keep your first rounders to build for the long term. Jackson is definitely an upgrade to our WR corp. Our newbies must not be cutting the mustard.

What do you think Denver fans were saying about Brandon Marshall? Basically we have a a disgruntled Wide Reciever that wants a new contract with a looming suspension. This doesn't scream first rounder to me. Most likely it'll take a third round to get him off San Diego's hands. Now if only someone wanted to trade Haynesworth for a third rounder.

Its a tough deal either way. I think he's worth a 2nd or 3rd but do we even have a 2nd next yr? I would love a player for player trade a little better

2 things:
1. i want him on the B&G, but not for a 1st, which i think SD will demand
2. this really speaks to what shanny thinks of our current wr core.

Yes we have a second round pick next year. Hope we keep it!

Oh so now you want Jackson but you didn't want Brandon Marshall???

skinsfan69 · 06-29-2010, 10:23 PM

Jackson is def an upgrade over anything we currently have. I say make the deal if it isn't too costly.

Is Jackson the head case that Marshall is?

I think mentioning the Skins is just to support a high asking price.
They probably are asking for a first and willing to take a 2nd and a 4th or equivalent.

I really don't know what San Diego is lacking...all I know is Haynesworth is an obvious trade scenario from the skins standpoint...and perhaps Malcolm Kelly to replace him....and Rocky has been mentioned in trade scenarios.

I personally think a 3 for 1 deal would be too much...but if we could retain Rocky, I'd be thrilled.

Question: What is San Diego's most glaring need?

I don't think Vincent is disgruntled like Marshall, just has a booze problem and I do think SD will ask for a first rounder for him or at least in the beginning. Jackson is a top WR in the league, so I think SD could still expect a first rounder. A 3rd rounder is more apt to be a bust.

If we make a trade it will be between the 3rd-5th of July based on the fact Easter D. McNabb the day before Father's day Jammal Brown, someone else is coming soon.

HTTR.

Never heard anything in the media to give me that impression. DUIs means he likes to party too much.

skinsfaninok · 06-29-2010, 10:57 PM

I would think SD's biggest need is at WR if they trade VJ. PFT just posted that shanny is really high on Jackson If that means anything. If a trade were to happen, I would think it could be done by the weekend. Apparently Seattle is really chasing him also

skinsnut · 06-29-2010, 11:03 PM

what picks do we have available next yr?
I know we are missing our 3rd and 4th.

And San Diego must have other top needs besides WR.

Jackson has had some off field issues. Marshall is the better player and had history with Shanahan so this doesn't make sense. Why not try and get the better player who has history with the head coach?
