Jeff Lurie Says DeSean Jackson's Attitude Is "Terrific" And Would "Welcome Him Back"

Has DeSean learned humility?

And can he teach Drew Rosenhaus some pragmatism?

with obtainable bonuses that that max it to 9 mill on a year by year basis

I loved the guy but it was proven that he is frivolous and we really don’t need him to run an effective offense. Sign a receiver who will consistently catch the ball. I say that we sign the best WR from the Chargers (Malcolm Floyd) and then draft a WR (Sanu or Quick). Boom, upgrade.

I expect that what the Birds do in the draft and what may come up in trades/free agency will heavily influence what happens to DJ. He really makes a difference in the offense, but he’s at best the third most important skill position player on the offense, and IMHO the impact of him vs. Maclin is quite small, and I could be persuaded that Mac is more important than Jax. On second thuoght, Naaahhh!

Without knowing how much he’s actually asked for, it’s hard to form an opinion.

NFL Salaries – WR

next year will be $9.4 million

They offered DeSean $8 million per year, he apparently was asking for $10 million per year, then either meet in the middle at $9 mil/year or give him a contract that features performance incentives.

I’d like him back. I can’t say I understand the ins and outs of the cap and contracts and all that, but I’d really like to have DeSean and Shady signed. I want them both to be Eagles for a long time.

I love DeSean and it will be painful to see this kid go to another team but what if he regresses after getting paid?

It is alittle far off, but inevitably I have to think about whom we draft. I feel we need WR, LB, LB, S, OT, QB. I haven’t kept up with everyone, but the bowl games help. First: Blackmon is a stud! I would love to give our first AND Desean..this kid will really be special. We should move up. Next would be Kuechly vs Burfict. I believe in Burfict is too special to let pass by. Kuechly is more disciplined, but I think of Graham vs JPP..we know how that turned out. I am open to any and all feedback. I just want the best moving forward. We have the ammo to get both…what is the point of stockpiling draft picks. Picks these 2 and with our current talent…minus Desean and a legit DC…we take home the Lombardi

Reading all of this stuff leads me to believe that there haven’t been any bridges burned. A month or so ago I thought that he was a good as gone. I’d like to see him back, and it appears that it is definitely possible. We’ll see.

Is worth no more than 5 mill a year PERIOD! Anybody with speed can do what he does and there are plenty of speedsters out there with better hands than Jackson. Wallace, Ford, Murphy, Brown, And that’s just from 2 teams. If the Eagles pay Jackson more than 5 mill a year they might as well join the Cardinals on line for the ass rape section of the ;eague because that is what has happened. All the top 10 WR paywise have one thing in common that Jackson does not and has not done since he entered the league….led the team in receptions, and receiving TD’s.

I say let him walk, trust me, the offense will not miss a beat. Hell, as a matter of fact let him sign with Dallas or the Giants that would be 10 mill a year they CAN’T spend on real talent.
