MICHAEL TURNER TIDBIT: For those that haven't seen it, I thought this was an interesting revelation about trade talks concerning Michael Turner. It appeared on ESPN.com with Pro Football Weekly's Trent Modglin commenting during an online PFW chat session.
Mike, Fallbrook, CA: In light of the Shaub deal between then Falcons and Texans, You have to believe that Chargers G.M. A.J. Smith is going to shop Michael Turner for the best price he can get before the draft; he says the phones have been ringing and I still feel that the Packers, Bills or Browns will step up with a creative and fair offer; AJ loves young talent and will not let him walk away next season without any compensation;
Trent Modglin: (4:03 PM ET ) Funny Mike, I actually just put a call into Turner's agent right before I logged on to see what was going on. Unfortunately, I got his voice mail. However, I think AJ Smith will have to listen to deals that will come in the weeks leading up to the draft, especially if a first-round pick is involved for a backup RB he's likely to lose next season anyway. I hear that the Bills, Packers and Browns
It seems like a lot of people don't like the idea of Buffalo making a play for Turner. I for one would love the move. While Turner hasn't been tested as a full time starter in the NFL, I think he has shown enough to warrent an opportunity to be a starter in this league. And please don't compare M. turner to L. Jordan, because Jordan couldn't hold Turners jock when it comes to god given ability. While there is no gurantee that Turner will be a stud, the same can be said for any of the backs that will be available in April. I guess it all comes down to what SD wants for him and what kind of contract he'll be looking for.
