Not sure what it will cost but if there is someone that can make it work it's BA. Man, I hope this gets done.

Dan Snyder. lol

I said earlier cut Hank and Polumbus. That gets half the cap space needed, + half our remaining cap space and that is enough to make any deal needed to bring him in.

The same people who are so excited about DeSean will be the first people bitching once he becomes a cancer. I don't see why we don't draft Benjamin from FSU in the second round and call it a day. In no way, shape, or form is this a smart move. Throwing all that money that he will demand at someone who is known to be a prima donna and not a good teammate in the locker room as opposed to drafting some younger talent is asinine.

If we really want someone, forget the cap, many ways we can get it done.

The fact he visiting us Monday puts as a finalist for d jax. Folks is this the big move?

Wonder if everyone is behind the move in the organization?

I we get Jackson do we wear red or blue do-rags?

There are not many times in the nfl where a receiver of DJ's caliber comes along. When it does you need to take a chance. We could sign a receiver in the 2nd round and he is a dud or it could take 3 years for him to be any good. DJ is a major weapon that will make our offense one of the best. We need to take a chance.

And once he makes our offense number one in the league and making us a contender for years you will be saying I'm so glad we signed him.

I cant for the life of me can think of anytime in the history of any sport let alone the NFL that a player of jacksons caliber coming off their best season just flat out cut.Its not like he's old either.Yeah he was going to make a lot of money but still Ive never seen it happen.
That alone should scare the hell out of somebody signing him.
Part of me wants him here,maybe he would have a chip on his shoulder and want to prove the eagles screwed up by releasing him,but then again he could turn out to be another T.O.

[DynamiteRave]

I can bet you anything after being cut by the coach who swore the Eagles wouldn't cut him, DJ changes his act and hits the field with something to prove. Come to DC and he gets to do that twice a year.

What did the Seahawks spend on Receivers last year? How about the Giants when they won 2 Super Bowls? Or the Pats when they won 3? Or the Ravens when they won their 2? If they spent a lot, then maybe we should as well. No need to reinvent the wheel.

If not, then maybe we should stop doing the exact opposite of the teams that contend year in and year out.

By the way, who were our Receivers when we were a top 10 Offense 2 years ago. I say pass. Invest in Defense and Linemen. Wide Receivers and Running Backs are borderline irrelevant.

I'm guessing they would use D. Jackson like the shegulls use Percy Harvin.

[artmonkforhallofamein07]

Well the Seahawks did spend 11 million and a 1st round pick on Percy Harvin last year and got one big game out of him. It just happened to be the Super Bowl not to mention Sidney Rice who got hurt but also had a big contract.

How did they do without them?
