ESPN: Seahawks Close to Trading Jackson to S.F.?

by Shrug on Apr 27, 2007 11:32 PM PDT

As MFAN reports in his diary to the right, the Seahawks and 49ers are in serious discussions about trading Jackson to San Francisco for a 4th-round pick. The 49ers are loaded with picks this year, and with former Seahawk Trent Dilfer on the SF sidelines as a backup, Jackson has a strong ally pushing for his acquisition.

However, Sando reminds everyone, ain't nothin' done yet. He warns that another deal from another team could come at any minute, mentioning in an aside that Jackson himself is in Tampa Bay this evening. Another deal could come in and trump this one.

It certainly seems, however, that given Jackson aces his physicals, a transaction of some sort will take place. A 4th-round pick? Well... at first it was an eye-raiser, but it also speaks to the trepidation an oft-injured receiver brings out in executives. In any case, nobody seems to be terribly despondent about it.

Will update. Thanks to MFAN for catching it. I was doing something else.

cool

I got mentioned in two threads!!!!!!

I was thinking that maybe Ruskell will move both 4th rounders for a 2nd rounder, does anyone think that is a possibility??

Oh and I had to post in both John and Shrugs thread because I love both of them.

Josh Brown is better than you.

Yeah, Ruskell might be thinking big picture...

but I think it's more likely he packages it with our second round pick for a super late first round pick or an early second rounder. He did that to get Lofa Tatupu and he might think another talent of his caliber will drop. That could be Zach Miller who hasn't escaped his bad combine performance, yet. It could be Justin Blalock, who may no longer be on the Ravens' board with the return of Ogden.

so it goes

Morgan and I

were obviously writing this post at the exact same moment, since our posts were 6 minutes apart.

Here's the scary part: It was around 11:30pm... on a Friday night.

I don't know.. I still think

That Darrell Jackson is worth at least a very very early 3rd rounder. This guy is a 1000 yard guy adn one of the best, just because he's not nationally recognized, his trade value shouldn't suffer because of it.
