Re: DeSean Jackson meeting with the Redskins on Monday

Question I believe BA said he was going to sign at least 20 players this off season so would D.Jacks count has two or three players since he can play WR, PR & KR.

Unless we start going back to VC ways of cap management, or Mara et al give us another spirit of the cap penalty, you can always maneuver within the cap to keep your guys. That is assuming that you want to, and also assuming the cap does go up the way it is projected to.

Drama aside, I think the upside is too great to not make a serious push for him. Garçon, Jackson, Reed, RG3, Morris... yeah good luck to any defensive coordinator trying to stop this offense.

Unless the Oline play changes drastically, which it might with a new coaching staff but I am not betting on it (mainly because the talent doesn't seem that much better than last year), that offense wouldn't be that great.

Scheme can go a long way as we saw in 2012. I expect under Gruden we'll see a lot more 3 step drops with quick passes.

Re: DeSean Jackson meeting with the Redskins on Monday

As much as I would like to have Jackson, I say we pass. We'd have too much money committed to the WR position with too many other holes. This is a move a contending team should make. And as someone else mentioned, you don't win Super Bowls with wr's. But he fills two needs. I wouldn't be upset if they made the deal.

Re: DeSean Jackson meeting with the Redskins on Monday

2012 we made the playoffs and if not for RGIII's leg you never know what could of happened 2013 we go 3-13 and if not for RGIII's leg you never know what could of happened. We are not that far removed from a playoff team it all comes down to RGIII's leg. So IMO to say we are not a playoff team is not absolutely true.

In the NFL the distance between 6-10 and 10-6 is not large at all.

Sign Desean, and all of a sudden you're looking at safety or RT with that 34th pick. You cross WR off your list. The effect is bigger than just a dynamite WR.

I disagree. 3-13 had a lot more to do with the overall talent level on the team. Plus the team was 3-6 in 2012. It comes down to not having enough good players. Jackson gives us a top guy at WR and teams, coming off his best year as a pro. It's a tough decision for the front office.
