Take action and get Jackson!!!

While Chad Jackson is still unproven, and recently cut from the Pats. I think he would be an excellent addition to our thin wide reciever corps. Just because he was cut from the Pats doesn't nessecarily mean he is a bad receiver. Players come and go from the Pats for many reasons, buried behind talent, Belechick's charm, and many more. The only concern that I would have is whom would be getting the axe. We've already cut Tyron Brackenridge, a player who I was quite fond of. I would sure hate to lose Dantrell Savage. I assume he would be next. Considering they've kept B.J. Sams around for some reason.

While I thought that I had surely gotten to this first. It's come to my attention that the guys over at AA had already posted a near identical post. Either way love the idea.

Wow, I didn’t see his name mentioned among roster cuts today. Just because he was cut from the Pats receiver corps doesn’t say much as a lot of good receivers have come and gone through the years. Jackson particularly is a good fit for us because he’s young and has good speed. I would bet a pretty penny too his hands are better than Devard Darling’s

Should we just call it now and say the C-boys take him? They’re hurting for wideouts apparently and they don’t ever hesitate inking available talent

Not sure

If I am not mistaken. The two years he has been in the league he has less than 300yds. receiving. I am not sure he is any better than some of the young guys that we already have.

Injuries

Chad was injured most of his first 2 years. I was following him closely and had high hopes. He was supposed to be the “Donte Stallworth” replacement, but never quite made it. Word is he’s a great physical player, but had trouble with the playbook. I hate to use the term “third receiver”, but Jabar Gaffney ended up with that monicker behind Moss and Welker.
