No way, Dude. I want no part of that trouble. Not sure how well you remember the 90's, but with social media like it is today, he would bring nothing but bad press. PacMan Jones, Part II.

There is no way that you could make me believe that his on the field benefit would trump the crap he would bring on the rest of the team. Just not worth it, IMO.

I haven't heard any bad press from him thus far and he's been in the league what? 5 or 6 years? All I hear is about his charitable efforts.

That one trick pony had 1300 yards last year. Give me that one trick pony ANYDAY WITH the gang-ties. He'd be in Dallas and not Philly or Cali.

The Eagirls all of a sudden don't look so good anymore.....

Until someone you know is murdered.

Cowboys should sign Desean Jackson and in addition to that...

-Cowboys need to trade Romo...and release Orton and Weeden.
-Trade up in the draft to get Johnny Manziel and draft Michael Sam
-Sign Tim Tebow as Manziel's backup

He's 27......hardly over the hill.


His age isn't the problem. He would be a luxury for the Cowboys that we couldn't afford.


We need building blocks right now. OL, DL, Linebackers. Until we get that sorted out players like Desean Jackson just aren't in play.

What if this story unravels and becomes Aaron Hernandez-esque?

The fact that no one traded for him is very telling and I don't think this is a can of worms you'd want to be a part of.

Okay and? I've never heard of no "gang affiliation" or anything like that about Desean until he gets cut. Now he's a part time gang banger.....this is silly.

I find it funny that the Eagirls release Desean Jackson for "gang affiliation" but give Riley Cooper a extension after his racist rant which would lead me to believe he's affiliated with the KKK.

Just saw a tweet from Shefter that said within 30 minutes, 4 teams had already called his agent. He may have a new team by Monday.

You get those building blocks by the draft. They are expensive, hungry and young. Free Agency is filled with over the hill players or players who had one good season and are looking to get paid. This is that rare occurrence that you get a player still in his prime and just coming off a Pro Bowl. If you have the money you do it. He wouldn't be a luxury in my eyes. I see Dez Bryant and a bunch of #3's and 4's in our receiving core.

Next years cap space is going to be plentiful.

We're giving up no draft picks for this guy?

Just paying him?

By the way the Eagles absorbed some of that pay.

I would at least take a look if not just to drive his price up to the competition if we were not to snag him.

This story of the gang ties and all that gets blown out just now to help justify letting him go like this to their fans.

Slot receiver and great 2nd to replace Austin. We desperately need speed. Punt returner too.

Get him.

My 2 cents? I'd love to have him, headache and all. There may be drama that come's with him, but, at least, it would be entertaining. Having said that, 1. I don't think Desean Jackson would be caught dead in a Cowoboys uniform and 2. he probably want's BIG money the Cowboys don't have.

We can't afford him. Gotta apply monetary efforts on the defensive side of the ball. That's a must. Don't forget we have Williams, Bease, and Harris all returning 1 year better in the system.

Of course the Eagles did this AFTER the ESPN insiders handed out their grades.

99% that he's going to be a Raider. They have the cap space, they just signed Schaub and MJD...they're definitely at least trying to win this year.
