Darius Jackson Available

[fredp22]

released by the (Charlie) Browns......wheres the guy last week that said he would've run for 1400 if we didnt have Zeke.

please stop posting silly things.
jahad thomas is 5'10" and 175 or so. That makes him skinny... not a midget where 5'10" is actually average height.
he can actually return kicks and play special teams then operate as your nickel back which gives him an outside shot to make the roster.

dunbar would be here if he could stay healthy at all. his size was never an issue for dallas.

darius jackson has legit NFL size but no skill in any special teams area.
he isn't gonna break into the lineup here as an every down back and thus has no place on the roster.

cole, switzer and dunbar all weigh more than thomas.
and they are all faster than thomas.

may be dunbar's size was working against him for being a RB???

Would be worth the look they really liked him here.

 

[waldoputty]

I have not seen any medical reports, but if the Brownies don't want him, he may indeed have osteochondritis dissecans; would have a difficult future with that even if he did have microfracture surgery.

i googled all over and could not find any specifics on his injury.
even went on browns message board.
nothing.

4 teams made waiver claims on him last season, not bad for a bum.

We'll see how many (if any) put in a claim for him this time around. I believe he reverts back to Cleveland's IR if he's not claimed.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

What?

How does a future HOFer get waived?

He's big and runs fast. Teams usually find that to be worth checking out unless their rosters are loaded with more proven backs.

If they don't choose to reach an injury settlement. It'll probably depend on how bad the injury is. If he's torn a ligament, I doubt anyone will want him until he's healthy and can be cleared by medical.

If you're waived by the Browns. That should be a career ending event.

I dunno Sam, the Browns offense is pretty hard to crack.

 

[Floatyworm]

It may be time for an ex Commander to hit the road, jack.

Yup....Never understood that move. A young back that showed promise....for cheap. please....fix this Schlitz Jerry

 

[Silver N Blue]

Make it happen! Friday news on a Thursday!

 

[Toruk_Makto]

easier, but would you not like to see one more RB not counting the midget who runs a 4.67?

I'm perfectly content with Zeke, McFadden and Morris.

Watch the Giants make another claim...

I don't think Browns fans even know who he is. I really don't fans of any other team knows he exists.

 

[Nightman]

what changed is we cut him when we were at 53 men squad, not the current 90.
he may be a big improvement from the midget RB rookie who runs a 4.67 as the '4th' RB.

if he needs microfracture, pass.
if he needs ACL, why not.
easy way to stash.
he could be ready in 6-7 months.
he could be 1 of 2 RBs under contract in 2018.

@bkight13 - what happens if he is on PUP/IR all season.
does he get a year of service time?

He would accrue a season If on the IR/PUP

No way you sign him if he can't pass a physical..... too many fish

If healthy he is worth a second look

I think most teams would be scared off but if it's minor the Cowboys have a unique situation where they already know him.

1. injuries happen.
2. cheap rb for 2018/19

what would they be scared off - only a spot on roster of 90
