49ers & Rams Options For Vincent Jackson?

Jason LaCanfora of the NFL Network mentions both the San Francisco 49ers and St Louis Rams as two teams that will consider Chargers WR Vincent Jackson during the offseason.

“Those are the kind of teams I could see trying to go big for Vincent Jackson,” said LaCanfora.

There’s really no doubt that San Francisco will have to add some depth to the receiver position and Jackson would give them a much needed vertical threat. The same could be said for the Rams who arguable have less talent at the position than even the 49ers.

Chargers GM A.J. Smith has warmed up to the idea of signing Jackson to a long-term commitment and even Jackson has said that he would like to remain in San Diego. The team has said that they’re not willing to use their franchise tag on Jackson which should give other NFL teams the opportunity to blow Jackson away with a huge contract offer.
