Honestly, and this just my belief, I don't think we're going to trade for VJ. And I think a big reason why is that the Chargers will not settle for less than something like DT and a 2nd round pick. And Allen will say no.
Maybe if they get desperate enough....

I think he mentioned Kelly may be cut so that he can latch on to another team.
Another juicy tidbit(fantasy super-sleeper?):
That would be totally off the wall, truly.
Gonna cut a 20-something year old WR that is still under his rookie deal entering his third year. But only after ONE weekend of practice with a new coaching staff? The first cutdown day is not untill the 31st of August, 4 full weeks away and after a couple of pre-season games.
That just does not add up. Why even ponder trading picks and players only after a couple of practices?

In defense of the FO, this is not exactly something that is very new. They were looking into aquiring VJ before camp even started. I think they have a pretty good idea about the WR position already and training camp is just reitterating what they already knew.

Not questioning the FO. I'm questioning the SOURCE.
What credible source from the FO has come forward and even mentioning anything related to releasing Kelly and pursuing VJ, or any other WR for that part? Everything has been wrapped around rumor and speculation.
Sure that cant come right out and say they are interested in VJ due to tampering rules, but other than specualtion in the media and rumors on message boards, where does this come from?

Source is some dude who claims his bro is a PR guy for the skins who has a ton of inside access. He also claims his bro is a lawyer to boot, so his bro meets with agents often.

As you should.. our source for the new info was in the comment section of an article on Redskins.com.
I was just pointing out that there was chatter coming out of Redskins Park back in June and July about interest in picking up VJ. The Redskins tried to go after a couple of disgruntled WR this offseason, with VJ being the most recent and only other one available at this point.
