James Walker had his AFC North mailbag today, and a question came in about if the team really could find a way to get Antonio Cromartie from San Diego for running back Willie Parker. Walker says below it’s not going to happen:
That’s not going to happen for several reasons, Dave. First, Parker is an unrestricted free agent. The Steelers would have to place a tag on Parker to own the rights to trading him, and using any tag on Parker is not in Pittsburgh’s plans. Second, if the Chargers are expected to get rid of LaDainian Tomlinson because he is aging and has durability concerns, why would they trade for Parker, who has some of the same issues?
