Vincent Jackson wants no franchise tag "for life"??
Vincent Jackson remains a thorn in side of labor deal
Posted by Gregg Rosenthal on July 22, 2011, 4:44 PM EDT AP Patriots guard Logan Mankins made it clear Thursday he’s not looking for anything in return for being an antitrust plaintiff. As Florio mentioned last night, Vincent Jackson remains a bit of a problem. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Jackson continues to demand $10 million or no franchise tag for life, despite Jackson’s public claims to the contrary. While Jackson hasn’t made the demands himself (of course), people “close to him” have made the demands. Florio mentioned the NFLPA* fears a lawsuit from Jackson. The Chargers receiver has somehow become an issue for both sides of the labor dispute. It’s unclear how Jackson’s situation will be resolved, but it would be shocking for the NFL to back down and give Jackson anything. Schefter suggests Jackson could continue to sue the league even after the antitrust plaintiffs step down. |

If we traded a ton of picks for Luck, would you guys be pissed if we signed say a Deshawn Jackson?

I'd go 3 1sts and 3 3rds to start with. Maybe even our 2 this year.

This would be a 60/40 pass/run formation which would get the ball out quickly, give the ball to Charles on delays, draws and screens and go deep to VJ and Baldwin to keep the safeties back. And the fact you wouldn't be force-feeding Charles would make him more effective.

You could do it if Baldwin turned into a big-time deep threat.

Really would like to have a burner. Who is in this years draft class that oculd fill that role?
Why can't we find a Mike Wallace? |

The dude was drafted to be a deep threat. That's what he was in college.

Baldwin is fast and should be a legit deep threat.
Orton can throw it deep but i'm not sure our offense really tries to go deep much. They want more of a RAC for long yardage.
