DeSean Jackson worth 2nd/3rd rd pick?

Jackson, Bush, Marshall, Peyton = Super Bowl.

Philly is the closest NFL city to me...I see plenty of Eagles games and plenty of Jackson. He's a fast player that can catch the ball from the quarterbacks he's had that can get the ball to him. He isn't good enough to beat out Marshall for the #1 spot, and I think Ginn would have been good enough in the 2nd spot at being a fast guy that can occasionally make a long catch if we hadn't gotten rid of him.

Oh, and I hate Ohio State and hated the Ginn pick when we drafted him, so it's not like I'm some Ginn or OSU homer.

Depends on the year we are giving away the picks.how about a 2nd next year and a 3rd the following year.nothing this year

OK I am confused. Lombardi is saying now that DeSean Jackson is franchised, the Eagles can trade him for whatever they want, but in the new CBA (Article 10, section 2(a)(i) if you want to check for yourself) it says compensation for a franchise player is 2 first round picks. Im eirther missing something or Lombardi forgot to read the new CBA and is going off the old CBA.

Why would we give up draft picks and money for a guy that is arguably only a little bit better than what we had in Ted Ginn, with the bonus of being a diva receiver on top of that? I say arguably only a little better because Ginn has never had anyone throwing to him that is as good as what Jackson has had.

A guy with 900+ yards every year he's been in the league is only a little better than Ted Ginn. Just when I thought I heard it all, holy ****.

I would give up a third in a second

I believe that only refers to Non Exclusive Franchise tags (for restricted free agents). If they sign an offer sheet with another team, then you have to give up 2 first rounders. From what i understand its basically a super charded RFA tender.

Most of the FA like Desean Jackson or Ray Rice who are set to be unrestricted free agents are slapped with the EXCLUSIVE Franchise Tag. Doesn't allow them to talk to other teams. and trade terms are subject to whatever the teams agree to, however, you better be prepared to reward the disgruntled franchised player with a long term lucrative deal

He is worth a 3rd round pick all day he is just not worth the money, but if we had Marshall and Jackson...I would buy a copy of Madden next year.

Jackson def worth more than a 3rd

I would swap first for him. Then sign manning and nelson. Of course redo contracts and cut bell


1st pick-Nick Perry
2nd-Best available tackle
3rd-Best available guard
4th-Michael egnew

DJ would be the perfect compliment to BM ... Now, if we just had a QB to distribute the ball.
