[quote=skinsfan69;813571]I just think that they had Jackson sitting there, he's got game experience, why not just let him play instead of trading for McNabb? That way they keep the picks.... and to be honest, at this point, is there a big upgrade between McNabb and Jackson??[/quote]

One minor error in the logic here:

Tarvaris Jackson is NOT on the Vikings' roster. The team and the QB parted company at the end of the 2010 season and he is an unrestricted free agent as of March 2011. Rumor has Jackson going to the Seahawks...

Vikings' QBs as of the opening of camp are Christian Ponder and Joe Webb and Rhett Bomar. Also familiar with their system from time on the squad last year is Patrick Ramsey.

So we're getting a conditional 6th in 2013 now? We can't even get a 6th in 2012? Damn. :/ Better than nothing I suppose? Any idea on concrete terms of the deal?

Right now it seems like a 2012 6th and a conditional 2013 6th, and McNabb will work out a new contract with Minn on Wed.

Considering what we gave up to get him, I just want to put this one behind us and move on. Ugh.

True, but it's definitely disappointing that we gave up a 2nd and a 4th for him, and one year later, the best we can apparantly do (barring something unforeseen in the next couple days or so) is two 6th rounders in two years.

On the bright side at least we didn't release him, and potentially get nothing for him. Although I still have that remaining question, if we released him and he went and got a nice sized deal and had a Pro Bowl year somewhere else, would we get a 3rd round comp pick for him? I know the comp pick strategy chart has something to do with losing more players than you take in, but I don't know the exact details.

New FO, same result(s).

re: Redskins and Vikings agree on McNabb trade (updated: deal is done)
 

As I understand it,
the conditional 2013 pick is as low as a 6th, but could go much higher

Come back Vinny, all is forgiven. :(

I agree. If you had told me when they got McNabb this is how it would turn out I'd have told you you are crazy. I really thought the DM trade was a huge upgrade at QB but it wasnt. Maybe Minn can get DM to get in shape and set aside his ego and do things their way but I doubt this old dog will want to learn new tricks.

He expects a deal to get done very soon.
