Hate to say it , but have to.

That’s B Funny
Man I'd be angry as hell but more so because it took forever for me to get Kupp's bone jersey. Might have just run duct tape on the back of it and write Jackson on it or something lol
 
Regarding injuries... maybe it's a good thing the injuries have been "spread out" (ankle, hamstring, abdominal, Achilles) rather than just one chronic body part (knee, for example).

Desean might have been the victim of some recent bad luck.

And the Rams have been good about giving older guys some extra rest... Jackson might get Wednesdays off with Big Whit...

Right on !! Let’s just hope he takes a couple PR/KR to the House!! As The Rams say WHOSE HOUSE!!!

I believe he takes the #1 Jersey??
#18 is still open though.

Mixed feelings. Love the speed, but not so much the age and injuries. Not expecting him to contribute big and be on the field a lot.

Btw I'm betting Kupp will retain his #10. He had switched out jersey #18 to get that # and won't be giving it up to the new guy.

Damn look away from this board for a few hours and shit goes crazy lol. I miss all the good stuff. Really gonna enjoy reading the previous ten pages of you guys disemboweling each other with witty repartees but for now before I get all distracted...

What I like: this is a nice push for Jefferson. Outside guy crashes in, vet with an aggressive mindset. It's a good mix with Jefferson who could use it IMO. Competition is always good.

What I don't like: the injury history and I've always thought he was a dick tbh. But I don't know much about him so yeah.

What I think: McVay will get the most from Jackson. It will be a pride thing for him to show well we're gonna get his all.
Speaking of people who attempt to be witty how you doing?

What's with this clown's snide remark about Van Jefferson amounting to little as a rookie. He was a ROOKIE that had to compete with three veterans for playing time. What did this moron expect?

While I am cautiously optimistic about the D. Jax signing I see no reason to dump on Van Jefferson in the process, and I hope V. Jeff breaks out this year and shoves the Bozo's comments where they belong.

Remember anything you see from rotoworld is their opinion. The bolded is the factual part and everything below is an opinion from the nimrods that work there.

Rotoworld has become nbc sports edge. And we all know what kind of Fuckwits work there.

Low risk, high reward. I believe someone said it also doesn't affect comp picks. Gives us more draft flexibility.

Kind of thing a winning organization does.
Can't help but think McVay has a plan to use him as a VERY successful scheme specific player.
Also worth emphasizing again the McVay connection from three years together in Washington:
Our offense has also been lacking swagger lately, this will help.

This summarizes my take.

Low risk.

Sets plays up for Kupp and Woods, and can play right away.

Adds swagger, which is going to be interesting with Stafford doing the same.

Only downside appears injury risk. Anyone we sign comes with that concern, particularly over 30. The other risk could be his influence on Jefferson, but could just as equally be a positive.

what about as a PR/KR man ?
 
What is he, a hundred? He better be cheap. This is a bandaid—of which he usually needs many.

A lot of people wanted John Ross who has shown literally nothing at the NFL level. Just a collosal bust. I'd much rather take a flier on DJax and hope McVay + coming back home to Cali keeps him healthy. DJax is healthy right now, the 81yard TD below was week 16 only a few months ago.

We still draft a deep threat if one falls to us in any round, but now its slightly less of a need. Most teams carry 6 WRs anyway.


Plus what this does is allow the deep threat we draft to get up to speed while we keep Jackson healthy for five games.

There is literally no downside to this signing
