LT was never quite healthy this season, mainly because his O-Line was AWFUL at run blocking. I seriously doubt he is leaving San Diego.

On the Marshall Faulk argument, he retired when he became 33... That would mean another 4 years from LDT (They're not the same players ofcourse) if they'd turn out the same.

LDT seems to be going downhill though. He might post some big numbers, but his durability is catching up with him. He's only 150 carries away from being tied with Marshall and he isn't used as a receiver type as much as Faulk was. (Not taking anythign away from both of em)

I wouldn't like this move, I'd prefer to go with an unknown but pretty great speed back to complement Grant (Tatum Bell comes to mind, I think he's one of the most underrated players).

How old is he?
What have been his injury issues this year?
How much time has he got left on his contract?

Sure! Bring him in!












He's gotta play guard, though.

30 is kinda old for a running back that has been ridden pretty hard in his prime.

I have no desire to see LT in green and gold, and as cynical as it may sound, I applaud the Chargers organization for having the courage to look at possible ways parting with him might benefit the team.

Uh yeah... past his prime you say? Maybe, but having watched quite a few Charger-matches last year I can honestly say he is way better than any of our running backs. He's still in the top 5 of the league. People just say he's lost a step because he didn't get another rushing title.

With him being 30 next season though and with an 8.8 million salary, I think he should take a pay-cut and stay with the Chargers.

There's also no way Sproles can be as effective as him, which was evidenced against the Steelers who were expecting him.

Veteran minimum offer with incentives, that would be all Ted Thompson would probably offer LT, he is sure to get a better offer.

Anyone have thoughts on what the Chargers might ask for to dump him?

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep
dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire
dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission
dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovksy says t was direct communication with someone familiar with Jaire’s line of thinking at that moment.
Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Demovsky just replied to me a bit ago. Jaire hasn't said it.
dfosterf (16-Apr) : Of course, that depends on the definition of "we"
dfosterf (16-Apr) : We have been told that they haven't because he wouldn't accept it. I submit we don't know that
dfosterf (16-Apr) : What is the downside in making a calculated reduced offer to Jaire?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers are receiving interest in Jaire Alexander but a trade is not imminent
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Jalen Ramsey wants to be traded. He's never happy is he?
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : two 1sts in 2022 and two 2nd's in 2023 and 2024
Zero2Cool (15-Apr) : Packers had fortunate last three drafts.
dfosterf (15-Apr) : I may have to move
dfosterf (15-Apr) : My wife just told the ancient Japanese sushi dude not enough rice under his fish
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I think a dozen is what I need
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Go fund me for this purpose just might work. A dozen nurses show up at 1265 to provide mental health assistance.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Maybe send a crew of Angels to the Packers draft room on draft day.
Zero2Cool (14-Apr) : I am the Angel that gets visited.
dfosterf (14-Apr) : Visiting Angels has a pretty good reputation
