Would Vincent Jackson come to Cleveland?

I was not under the impression that the Eagles shied away from players with a mark on their character resume. You have to do your homework, but I don't get the sense the H2 are quite as character obsessed as Mangini. At some point, you start letting the tail wag the dog and have the most honorable 8-8 team in football... which isn't the actual objective.
Despite this growing sentiment in a few of the members here this is not how it is at all. The proper way to build a team is to load up on "locker room" type guys, and then bring in the assholes.
Its the way the eagles, patriots, colts, steelers, saints, and every other team that has ever won a champioship have done it.
With savage and crennel we had all the ego superstar players, and it didnt work. Weve tried this already with this team how soon you forget.
We have the locker room in place. Next season we will have a vincent jackson type or three, and it will work out this time because things are finally being done the right way.

Makes sense. You have to have leaders who command respect. Absolutely agree.

Why do you guys assume that Jackson is a locker room cancer? From all reports that I have seen, he is a very hard worker and most of the players on his team love him. I also wouldn't hold his holdout against him because of A.J. Smith being a huge baby. However, his legal troubles are worrisome but you could probably work a clause into the contract to combat a suspension.
