Re: Around the NFL Week 12
I know in the last two weeks, I've heard DeSean Jackson compared to Devin Hester in terms of being just as valuable to the Eagles as Hester is to the Bears in terms of scoring points. He's not. It's not close. Right now, Patrick Peterson is more of an offensive threat for the Cardinals than DeSean is for the Eagles.
In full disclosure, I still fault the Redskins for not taking DeSean in 2008 in a draft where they picked three pass catchers; that was still really dumb. This organization would be in a better spot with DeSean Jackson. But he's not Devin Hester. He's just not.
Needless to say, Devin Hester would have been a better pick than Rocky McIntosh in 2006. Right college team, wrong player.
