Caption This!

Not captioning but anyone this Jackson isn't an Eagle next year? Don't think they would franchise him and he may just walk.

They'll be a lot easier to defend when they do.

The only other player in the league that can stretch defenses like Jackson is Mike Wallace in Pittsburgh.

You absolutely love Djax bro! ;)

He's actually my most hated player in the league.

You do a really good job of Trying to be objective. Sometime I think you give him too much credit though.

Well he's a speed WR. He's not going to do the things Dez Bryant or Hakeem Nicks will do. But what he does do pretty much can't be replaced.

I'd like to see the Eagles lose that dimension in their offense so teams can get nosey at the line of scrimmage with their safeties. I think their offense will really suffer when that happens.

Yea ..... sure looks like it.

Yep. Some people have the ability to keep their rooting interests out of their evaluations.

You should try it sometime.

You should try it .... you might see how the negatives of a guy like that outweighs the positives.

That kid makes T.O. look like a company man.

How do his negatives make what RS said any less valid?

Jackson is a threat on the field. I don't see how bringing his attitude into the equation changes that.

I hope he does walk.

Although if he does, it'll probably be to Washington because Dan Snyder will once again be unable to help himself.

Guys like Jackson suck for his own team and for the teams that face him. I don't care how piss poor his attitude is on the Eagles. Playing against him and watching him saunter into the endzone or stop just short and fall into the endzone pisses me off.
 
D-Jax is not a bad dude. His teammates like him, his coach likes him, and he's been very productive as a WR. Immature? Yes. Big ego? Yea, and so so does just about every other big-time WR in the league.

He's got a contract dispute with the Eagles (something they're known for, as we all know), and the management over there is really good at making any player who is looking for money look like a greedy scumbag. They've done it countless times over the years. They're just upset that he won't take a below-market deal like the one they signed Trent Cole and many others to over the years.

I still maintain that TO's reputation in the league took a huge hit because of the Eagle management PR machine.

He's making about half a million a year while he looks to the bench and sees Steve Smith making 4 million.

Yeah, I'd say he's got a reason to be upset with the Eagles' front office.
 
Now having said that, he's handled it poorly. Never quit on your team like he's done this year. That shows his immaturity.

But we know how this story plays out. When he gets paid by another team he's gonna be motivated to shove it in the Eagles' face. And for the first time in my life, I'll be rooting for him.
