The Chargers Super Bowl window may be starting to shrink, because they might have some roster issues with some of their most talented players, including ballhawking starting cornerback Antonio Cromartie(notes).

Reporting for the San Diego Union-Tribune, SN correspondent Kevin Acee writes that team officials may look to trade Cromartie in the offseason to free up some money to sign other key players.

One of those players is running back Darren Sproles(notes), who stands to make $7.3 million in 2010 if hes tendered as a restricted free agent without a long-term deal in place.

The Chargers would also need to put in a high tender worth a first- and third-round pick for wide receiver Vincent Jackson(notes), to protect against teams signing him to an offer sheet they cant match.

Of course, theres that little decision on what to do with LaDainian Tomlinson(notes) as well. Tomlinson failed to rush for 100 yards in any game this season, and could be released.


Who should we send for him? I think he is worthy CB.

Do let me know.

In all seriousness maybe Kampman if they also give us a 6th or 7th round pick. Depends on their needs.

I don't see Kampman going as part of this deal. A) I think if anyone is throwing in extra picks there it would be us and 😎 they run a 3-4 and Kamp would have to play OLB, so I'm not sure they'd want him anyway.

He's a pretty good returner, as well.

But no, I wouldn't want us to trade for him. A ball hawking CB is great, as long as he won't lose his coverage. I'm always a little iffy when the ball gets throw his way. Does he make the spectacular interception, or does he totally miss the ball and give up a big play? He's an average corner who makes up for it by making spectacular plays.

And those spectacular plays have happened less and less often since his amazing 2006 season.

I think that we're far better off by developping some talent at that position, now we have the chance. We have 3 starting caliber corners, of which 1 is still borderline elite and the other is reigning NFL Defensive Player of The Year. This is not the time to make trades and squander away picks on half decent corners.

Where would you want him, anyway? We'd have to get rit of Al Harris or bump Tramon down to the nickel corner spot.

If there's anyone that we should trade for on that Chargers team, it's Shawn Merriman.

He's had a little lapse in production after being out for a year, but I think that he'll be back on top this year. They've also drafted English while having a very respectable OLB on the other side in Shaun Phillips.

It'd solve our problem of not having a legitimate rusher opposite of Matthews and, with his recent production, he might come at a decently low price. Maybe something low enough that we could regain that pick by trading away Kampman to a 4-3 team.

Kampman isn't going down their. Not sure if we have anything else they might want. If they are going to be cutting salary we might be able to package Bush, Hall and others that are not high priced. Maybe Chillar in the mix also. Doesn't matter that he just signed. Not cap means no cap hit.

Maybe a CB for CB with Williams and a pick from us. Even though I don't think our CB position is as bad as most others.
The world needs ditch diggers too Danny!!!
