Curran: Pats looking into Vincent Jackson

[mgcolby]

Wat u mean wash-out rateDo u think Moss was wash-out?Moss to me was dogging it.

Is this a serious question?

Clearly not. I was referring to guys like Gabriel, Jackson, Galloway etc...

 

[patsfaninpittsburgh]

We probably won't get him, but if we did, I'd be all like:

This "Brady Bunch" thing is just too funny.

Besides, it's Seattle that covets Jackson.

How about Jackson and a 4th for Branch and a 2nd?

This is interesting because we hold the strong hand here. AJ Smith wants picks for Jackson. With our draft picks, we are the market makers. If Smith is going to get something, now is the time for him to move.

Also, both teams need line help and Mankins is a west coast guy.

 

[Simkin]

I have a lot of expectation with this guy . He is almost a 6'6 athlete with mad skills .



He is just what we need. But for the right price. As I said, I dont believe it, Curran...

 

[Kontradiction]

This doesn't really make any sense to me. Why would we want to pay his salary and give up the enormous amount of picks it would take to get him over here?

 

[zipster9]

We just lost one diva. Why would we acquire another?

Maybe BillB is just doing "due dilligence" on "what would the asking price?"...

Talks can just be talks...

Maybe BillB can talk to the Bears (on LoganMankins) on "what would you give me for him?"...

BTW - I really, really don't want DBranch. He is not worth $6mill/yr. Fragile as glass, and lost at least a few steps...

Stop using common sense

We just lost one diva. Why would we acquire another?

Because this one is better and much younger?

 

[D-Money]

I dont think we are giving enormous picks here.If its a second and a 3rd along with Mankins then no!

 

[Lansdowne]

A.J. Smith wants the world for Jackson. I don't see it happening.

Kon

Seattle wants Jackson. Both need O line.

Some sort of three way arrangement makes the most sense.

My worry is AJ Smith is an ahole.

 

[PatsChamp88]

Because this one is prettier and much younger?

Fixed.....

 

[fgssand]

no way he wants money and here we havent lol .



I dont know if him worth the risk... He is not so talented as Moss , Owens or a primadonna , but have the same attitude

You are nothing but a TROLL :bricks:

 

[Deus Irae]

Mankins was reportedly unhappy with the way his contract situation was being handled in New England. I'm not sure he'd be looking to San Diego for improvement in that department.

I guess. But I can't really envision a trade scenario, even in a three way, in which we don't give up a high end pick.

 

[patsfaninpittsburgh]

The problem is he hasn't received anything and by our position, we are the "marketmakers" for the 2011 draft.

The problem is Smith is a ahole.

If this goes down, I would bet we get Branch via a three way arrangement. Seattle has alreadt played Seattle so there is no problem there.

 

[D-Money]

The one thing i like about Jackson is that he is build like a tight end in a wr's body.I still have doubts about this deal but it would sweet!

 

[D-Money]

So are we getting draft picks here and Branch?

 

[Fixit]

Let's be realistic here. The Pats have amassed enough picks to trade for almost anyone and still have a crapload left. It's the equivalent of the Yankees payroll. If they can get Jackson, I say do it. The possible rewards outweigh the risks.

 

[Patjew]

This doesn't really make any sense to me. Why would we want to pay his salary and give up the enormous amount of picks it would take to get him over here?

Because we have too many picks already and we've freed up the money.

 

[D-Money]

I dont wanna give up a second rounder with Mankins.I dont like it.
