Redskins Sign DeSean Jackson

A couple of things.

1) Once teams knew that the Eagles possibly would release him, the trade value had to go down. You know he's going to want money, but why take a deal that another team had written that he had made comments about. On top of that why give any pick if you think he will be free. The only team that might have done that was Oakland, but they did it once already for Schaub.

2) I think way too much is made of the former coach issue but only time will make show, or it may never really be known.

3) I think the Skins played their cards real close, and other teams felt like there would be a market and DJax tour. Once he was released, I think the Skins acted swiftly and obviously definitively to make him know he was welcome and wanted here.

4) Kudos to BA especially for working through it without (so it appears) panicking.
