But Hackett knows the offense, he knows the HC, and he produced when healthy last year. I think that potential move makes the most sense.

I like Hackett, don't get me wrong, but he has been given every chance to be the man in Seattle and he didn't do it. Unlike Washington who was never given the chance. To me, it's all about opportunity. There are plenty of good wr's that ride the pine their entire career because they were never given the chance to succeed. Washington is in that bunch if you ask me. He runs decent routes, has good hands, and has very good size (6'3"). He also is only 27, will be 28 in August, so he has time to develope into a very good wr.
I won't complain if we get Hackett, I think that will be a decent signing for us, but if you compare the two, who will demand the most money? Of course it's Hackett. I'm just not convinced that Hackett will produce more than Washington if given equal chances.
