Vincent Jackson OTB
 
Early reports are he may be going to the Seahawks. I doubt SD would want to trade him to the Pats unless we paid a heavy price, and I'm sure the pats wouldn't want to give up a lot or pay him, as it seems they just don't like paying top dollar for top talent.

I think he's worth a 1st round pick and a contract close to what we are paying Moss now. Not many guys could step in and fill Randy's shoes, but I believe he's one of them.

I know he's got a few DUI's, but are there any Character concerns with Vjax? I can't remember there being any?

Ummmm .... yeah those "few DUI's" would qualify as character concerns.

Maybe the timing of his arrests that always seem to coincide with the week of a playoff game?

I've never heard anything else bad about him from other arrests to simply a bad attitude. Still, he has a serious drinking problem. That gives me enough concern not to invest a high draft pick and/or a large contract for him. He's likely to get suspended if anything else happens. And maybe this goes toward his attitude, but he was arrested for one of those DUIs just a few days before a playoff game and his blood-alcohol was a ridiculous 0.17. Maybe that shows he doesn't exactly have a passion for the game, but that's just a matter of opinion.

I think every WR in the league has been predicted to go to the seahawks at this point. VJ isn't going anywhere.

Good point. Big Vince is practically playing for vet minimum! I'm sure if they can't sign Brady to less than a $2 mil a year deal, they'll let him go, too. :rolleyes: :bricks: :rolleyes:

Can we dispense with the Pats Don't Pay nonsense, please. Wilfork was just made the highest paid at his position, Moss was a little while ago, Seymour got top dollar, and how about Thomas? Ty Law, too, and others I'm forgetting. No team likes to pay to pay top dollar, including the Pats. And exactly what team out there has a better working formula? Indy? NO. Baltimore, no. New Olreans? Not yet. The Jets? Spare me. SD? 0 Super Bowls. The Giants? A fluke. The closest to the Pat's would be Pittsburgh and guess what? They have a rep for supposedly not paying top dollar also.
