Let's Trade For Vincent Jackson!

22 posts in this topic

Question, why trade for Vincent Jackson when Jackson becomes a Free Agent after this season and we can sign him to a 5 or 6 year deal worth 40 Million without giving up draft picks. At this point we need all of the draft picks to trade up to get Taylor Mays or Eric Berry.

That plan doesn't sound half bad actually.

Pretty sure this thread is tongue-in-cheek.

Both those kids are supreme talents but what the hell are you gonna do with them. Landry figured it out in the 4th, had a pick and Ed Reed is well Ed Reed. We have more pressing needs than Safety right now.

Kill two birds with one stone. Sign Vincent Jackson as a FA, move up in the draft from 32 and take Berry or Taylor to fix the secondary and give our secondary a very scary look. Like I said kill two birds with one stone, we get our # 1 reciever in Jackson and we get a huge upgrade at saftey. That's what we do with them.

Personal opinion but if I was going to upgrade the secondary Id take a corner, not a safety. Im all for signing Jackson tho thats not an issue here.

Why in the world would we need to upgrade at safety?

There'll be a huge bidding war if the Chargers don't lock him up early. That's exactly the type of thing the Ravens' front office avoids, so don't get your hopes up.

No way! Lets trade Mark Clayton and a 3rd round pick for Andre Johnson!

Texans aren't going to be giving up Andre Johnson. Especially for a 3rd rounder.

Taylor Mays is basically Dawan Landry, only bigger, a harder hitter and more athletic. He can't cover. I don't see the Ravens getting Eric Berry but if they somehow did, it would be great. He's a safety but he can play corner.

Hey I just realized that both Jerry Rice and Deion Sanders are both not on a team right now, let's sign them!

I think we are good at wide reciver....Another proven veteran could help I suppose but the guys we have are more than capable of getting the job done!

Yeah, but from what I've read Mason may be retiring at the end of this season. He's not going to favre, he's going to retire this time. *shrugs* If that is true, and he does, then we'll need another wide out.

Hell ya, lets get all the guys that retired from the 2000 defense, put them on HGH and just unleash them. Be like some sort of zombified doomsday defense.
