Patriots are now officially in the mix for Vincent Jackson the rumor is he will be a long term replacement for Moss. Vikings are still in hunt & now the Patriots are in it... Pats are making bid today & Vikings will need to at least match it.

Jackson is better then Moss right now & the next 5-7 years with Brady will be a big time force in AFC. Vikings & now pats going after Jackson (Welker / Moss / Jackson / Hernandez) oh my that might be a real force plus Moss playing for contract

Topics were made on JetsInsider and FinsHeaven about. No clue if this guy is credible, but he did report the Revis signing before everyone else. He's some WFAN personality. Also reporting Revis is out 3-5 weeks. Will find out very soon if it's BS or not. Take it as you will...

I will wet myself if we sign Vincent Jackson as a long term replacement or compliment to Randy Moss.

Please God let it be true.

Hmmmmm. Can't we get Branch from Seattle instead?

Can he rush the passer?

(someone had to say it)

He is a heck of a receiver. I find it too good to be true, but I'll silently hold out hope.

This incareceratedboob dude gets one thing right (Revis ends hold out) and everything else wrong. Please....do the Pats strike you as the type of team that would do this?

Why do I feel like this would turn out bad for the Patriots?

Okay, thought about it. The Patriots already have enough offensive weapons, yet they're playing like idiots and not utilizing their matchups. They're already trying to integrate Tate, Gronk, Hernandez, and Edelman, and all of these guys really have talent (not the "talent" that every fanbase THINKS exists but doesn't- these guys really can be good.) My guess is, if they get Jackson, they would probably trade Moss. I see too many playmakers and only one ball.

This won't happen anyway.
