49ers Acquire WR Darrell Jackson

The San Francisco 49ers have acquired WR Darrell Jackson from the Seattle Seahawks for a 4th round pick in the 2007 NFL Draft, the 124th selection overall.

Jackson has missed time in each of the past two seasons with injuries, including 10 games during the 2005 season.

Washington Post: Darrell Jackson-to-San Francisco A Done Deal

Mark Maske of the Washington Post is calling the rumored trade of Darrell Jackson to the San Francisco 49ers for a 4th round pick a "done deal". Pending, of course, Jackson passes a physical this morning.

Wouldn't Jackson having to take, and pass, a physical preclude the deal from being "done"? Hey, what do I know?

Jackson to 49ers?

ESPN.com's Michael Smith is reporting that the Seattle Seahawks are close to shipping disgruntled WR Darrell Jackson south to the division rival San Francisco 49ers for a 4th round pick, specifically the 124th selection in this weekend's draft.

While it's hardly unheard of for inter-division trades to occur (just this off-season, the Miami Dolphins traded WR/KR Wes Welker to the New England Patriots for 2nd and 7th round picks), the gap has closed between San Francisco and Seattle to the point where this would appear to be an unwise manuever on the part of Seahawks' President Tim Ruskell.

On a side note, after sporadic updates lately, this page will updated frequently during tomorrow's draft.
