Patriots attempting to acquire Vincent Jackson?

According to CSNNE, a day after trading superstar wide receiver, Randy Moss, the New England Patriots are attempting to trade for disgruntled Charger's receiver Vincent Jackson. Jackson has not set foot on the field yet this season due to a suspension and contract dispute, and it seems that the option of him playing for San Diego this season is gone. The Patriots also have a disgruntled player in tackle, Logan Mankins. An exchange of these players would seem to benefit both teams and both players. Everyone gets a fresh start and a chance to succeed. Vincent Jackson should be able to stretch the field in a similar fashion to Randy Moss to open up the field for Wes Welker and Aaron Hernandez. Mankins will provide the protection that Philip Rivers needs to be effective. It remains to be seen if this trade will happen, but it seems reasonable enough to be true.
