(Tedd Ginn did pretty well for his time with the Saints, I believe) I could be wrong I'm a Rams fan not Asshole Face fan.
Yeah that's the guy. The dude kept getting deep threat jobs every year but didn't do squat.
Really I like Jackson better than any of these guys if he's healthy and motivated. Jackson could always play. Imo he had or has more than just deep speed. Elusiveness. Ability to get open on different routes and catch the ball. Then a threat to break it.
Seems to me that he fits McVay's bill. They know each other. McVay said he was looking for speed to stretch the field but not just a deep threat. If they can work the contract I think this may happen.
I would like the chances for our offense and Matt Stafford much better if they can sign Jackson and he can still play.

The more I read the posts on this thread, the more acceptable DJ sounds. Older? Sure, but he's still got wheels. More than just a deep threat? Yup, he has the ability to get open all over the field. A reasonable deal to return to Cali, reunite with McVay and a gunslinger QB? Absolutely. Anything more than a friendly deal and we should pass.
As far as a PR, in certain situations, yes. He hasn't been the normal PR but when Philly needed a big return, they'd stick him back there. He's actually a perfect fit.
Won't be needed to play 50% of the snaps, so he should be a bargain AND remain healthy. And if you need a good return late in a game, give him a shot.

Yea it's kind of insane to me the hate DJax is getting around here. Worrying about his health is understandable, but comparing guys like Ross, Ted Ginn, Tyrell Williams to him? Uhh what? People forget DeSean was one of the better WRs in this league for a long time. And for a while the best deep ball WR threat hands down. I'd venture to say when its all said and done he's a top-5 deep threat WR ever. His speed, hands, and ability to track the ball are all elite.
If he's healthy and we can get him for cheap he's got to be the best option. I wonder if we will trade Kupp however and try to get Golloday/Robinson
/Godwin/Fuller.
If by, "cheap deal" you mean vet minimum, I could see that.
Even the name DeSean Jackson we'll get him double-teamed when he's on the field.
And we know what Kupp and Woods can do as single covered secondary receivers.
I kind of like it.

Yeah, but the problem is he's not healthy enough to be on the field 75% of the time.Even the name DeSean Jackson we'll get him double-teamed when he's on the field.

I kind of like it.
Personally I would see him as a 3rd and long WR with maybe from time to time Second and short
Are they going to run it for the first down or will they throw deep to Jackson on that second and short play
Keep defenses guessing

Not hating on him, just don't think the older version of DJ will do much for us based on his recent injury history. Best ability is availability and he hasn't had that in some time.
He'd likely sign for a vet minimum or very small contract. Yes he's been hurt recently but he did come back week week 16 last year and caught an 81yard TD. He's the definition of a low risk/high reward signing. I'd bet coming to California weather and only being asked to play a limited roll for McVay would keep him a lot more healthy, versus being on the field every snap.
My point is Tyrell Williams is hurt non stop, will cost more money and hasn't proven much in this league. Ross is a joke. Agholor will cost a lot more money. TY Hilton will cost a lot more money. I think our only legit options for cheap deep threats are DJax or Perriman. And I would prefer DJax. We will likely draft a rookie speed WR as well. This is all assuming we dont trade Kupp and go after a bigger name #1 WR type. Which I think is a legit possibility.
Have you been reading this thread?
He was just resting up and now he's well-rested and ready for a Super Bowl run.
