At the right price, I'd take D.Jax in a heartbeat. With him and Garcon out there, who would you cover? Plus he'd be a ridiculous upgrade in the return game. As someone said, I wish he'd give us a vendetta discount. In reality, I'm sure he could end up with Carolina, where he'd automatically be the #1 wideout.

Re: Redskins Free Agents Signings Thread

DeSean Jackson is from Long Beach, CA and I'm sure he has some friends that have gang affiliation. D-Jax is a 1 trick pony who just runs deep routes or the WR screen pass. Yes he is a big play threat, but I believe Aldrick Robinson can do some of those same things at a much cheaper cost. Jackson has shown in the past that he can be a problem if he is not getting the ball thrown his way. I say no to signing him because he is a punk and needs to grow up.

Doesn´t that technically make him a 2 trick pony?

I have very little to no faith in Robinson becoming the type of player Jackson is. Jackson could open up the field for Reed and give more space for Morris. Plus he's a serious threat in the return game. I don't care if he's a diva, so was Gary Clark.

Robinson isn't or will ever be like Jackson. Wishful thinking though.

I can paint you a picture like Picasso for a much cheaper cost. I can also cook you a dinner like Bobby Flay for way cheaper.

Maybe I'm wrong but my interpretation of what punch it in stated is NO we can get a player like him for CHEAPER.

Lol Robinson to Jackson? ... Absolutely NO comparison there, sadly.
While he is a punk, and a clown and I hate all sheagles.. The kid can ball... Simply too much $ for us though...

Maybe we should have picked him before taking both Malcolm Kelly AND Devin Thomas while he was still on the board that year..

My point was i can cook a meal for cheaper than Bobby Flay because im no Bobby Flay. Lol. Robinson comes cheaper than Jackson because he is no Jackson. I dont want to sign Jackson for several reasons, but to compare Robinson to him on a football field is like comparing me to Bobby Flay in a kitchen. I do make fantastic chicken wings though.

Per Ian Rapoport's latest Tweet, the Redskins are showing interest in DeSean Jackson.
Here's the exact quote: "Two wildcard teams interested in DeSean Jackson: Redskins and Bills. Can see both fits. Toss those in with Chiefs, Raiders and the rest".

I wouldn't mind seeing us make the move for Jackson. He's a playmaker!!... which we do not have enough of on this team.

With a decent salary structure I would take him, but I am pretty sure there is bad blood between him and Hall, and maybe Santana(?) The Skins would need to make sure that locker room issues would not happen.

Bingo. In his prime too. These players don't become available often. Sproles is a similar type, but he is well over 30. Desean has the ability to score from anywhere on the field. My best guess is chiefs, jets, and us are most likely best options. Jets in NYC with Vick already there and they have cap room. Chiefs with Reid. Skins have the room and give him an option to play them twice. Nobody wants to play in buffalo, raiders are a mess, pats with Hernandez incident plus they are cheap, Cleveland is a mess with no qb, and I don't think the 49ers have the room with the kap extension being worked on.

Bruce, get this done!
