Exchanged some texts with Vincent Jackson, who expressed the following: "I just don't understand why (a trade was not completed)...

More VJ:"They obviously think i'm a valuable player by asking for such high trade compensation, but why am i only offered tender salary? ..

More VJ: "My agents and teams interested did everything to make it happen, but this organization stopped it. I just want to play football..

Final statement from Vincent Jackson: "It feels unethical and I am disappointed." Much more upcoming on NFL.com and NFL Network

The San Diego Chargers now--likely--have chosen a 3d-round 2012 compensatory pick for VJax instead of a 2d-rd pick in '11. Nonsensical.
AJ Smith won the pissing contest. But in the larger picture, it's a loss for him and his team.

guess AJ wanted to stick it to VJ really bad...now he has to sit what 6 games?

He has to sit the next game to finish out his 3 game suspension, then once he reports, he has to sit for 3 weeks. So in order to get a season accrued for free agency, he has to report by Week 7 - sit out the 3 weeks for being on exempt.

There's the chance that he could roll the dice and not report at all and take the chance that a new CBA allows unrestricted free agency after 4 or 5 seasons (probably likely). But if a new CBA went to 6, then he'd be right in the same position he is now.

      Adam Schefter: Panthers getting trade calls for Andy Dalton

      By strato · Posted

      To kick this up, The Athletic has a really comprehensive piece out where pretty much all QB questions are addressed. It is worth seeing.  https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/7083539/2026/03/04/starting-quarterback-projections-free-agency-draft/?source=user_shared_article I’m putting something specific here but it should have a thread or something. It is an extensive exercise.  This is a dense write up with a lot of column inches used, about the Jets and Murray and Reich, all this stuff.. then it goes to backup QB and there is Dalton.  I am pasting that part: As for Dalton, Reich is installing the offense he was trying to run in Carolina in 2023 before he got fired, and Dalton was with the Panthers then; he’s an ideal option as a veteran backup to replace Taylor. Reich said this about Dalton in 2023: “The way he's throwing the football, the way he works through progressions, the way he handles the operation. … Since day one (when) he walked in the door, I'm like, 'This guy is starter-worthy.' You guys know I've said that all along. He's, in my opinion, one of the best 32 quarterbacks in the world.” ——— That’s true love lol. I never heard any of this. Pretty crazy I think, considering how the year went.   Anyway the dream is not dead. .

      I’VE FOUND OUR WR3 (Rashid Shaheed)

      By Car123 · Posted

      The Seahawks traded for wide receiver/returner Rashid Shaheed at the trade deadline. He proved to be a key acquisition. Shaheed returned a punt and a kickoff for touchdowns in the regular season and had a 95-yard kickoff return in the postseason. Shaheed, though, is scheduled for free agency. So, the 12 games he played, including the postseason, might be the extent of his time in Seattle. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Shaheed and the Seahawks are not close to an extension, and the expectation is that the two-time Pro Bowler will hit free agency. Shaheed has 153 receptions for 2,243 yards and 12 touchdowns in his four-year career to go along with three punt return touchdowns and a kickoff return touchdown. He ranks 13th on PFT’s top-100 free agents. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/report-rashid-shaheed-appears-headed-to-free-agency
