V. Jackson "Prepared to Sit out season"

From what I've heard/understand any team that is able to workout a deal and sign him can petition the NFL to have it reduced back to 3 games.

I did not know that.

There has to be a point where the Chargers realize they aren't getting anything in return for VJ so might as well get what you can. I don't understand why they just aren't signing him. I really think we would have a very good receiving core if we got him. Moss would slip into the slot, and be used the way he was meant to be used and we could open the whole field up for McNabb. But I certainly agree with the Skins brass at this point that they want too much. No need giving up everything for a guy that may be free a little later.

Per Adam S.:

Clock is ticking: Chargers have from Friday 4 pm to Wednesday 4 pm to trade Vincent Jackson, with him missing four games. Otherwise, 6 games

Hey San Diego......

TIC... TOC.... TIC.... TOC....

Lower your standards and mabye someone will meet it.

I need a log to track all my conspiracy theories, unfortunately that might only prove how silly I am. Anyway conspiracy theory #1923:

Haynesworth's ankle is fine, but we know we are trading him in a 3 way deal with Tennessee and SD, so we are keeping him off the field so he doesn't get hurt. The deal is all but done from the other week and now we just need to wait until 4pm saturday to make it so!

As for Shanahan's comment about trading for a suspended player:

Shanahan on trading for a suspended player, like Vincent Jackson: Obviously you would want a guy that could come in and help you right away. 1 minute ago via twidroid

you figure, if we make the trade, and he can practice with the team following the 4th week, which is effectively only two games since even if an eligible player signed today, I doubt that they would be able to start Sunday. So that's not too much of a stretch to get him signed. As for the Vikings, well Sydney Rice could come back in the 6th week, possibly, so why spend mega dollars when their known star could possibly be back a couple weeks later.

Did I have enough ifs, and possiblies, in that thought?

I like it.

I wonder what San Diego is asking for? I really have no clue what the fair market value for this guy is right now?

A win-win for everyone. Another scenario would be for a three-way trade with the Texans, as they play the 4-3 and could use a Haynesworth-type in their defense.

Ok, I'll be the village idiot.... why do we have to wait till 4 pm Saturday? Why not just go ahead and get it done now? I mean the Chargers have from what?.... Wed of this week to Fri of next to get something done or he serves a full 7 games suspension? What is the significance of Saturday?

I stand corrected.... they have till next Wed. to trade him.

San Diego Chargers wide receiver Vincent Jackson's suspension has been reduced to four games, according to the NFL, if he is traded by next Wednesday.

I still don't see why we wait till Sat.?
