    Rams agree to deal with WR DeSean Jackson

    Rams agree to deal with WR DeSean Jackson

    The Los Angeles Rams have signed their first outside free agent of the offseason, and it’s a familiar face for Sean McVay. The team announced Sunday night that it has agreed to terms with wide receiver DeSean Jackson.

    Details of the contract were not immediately available.

    Jackson, 34, is a Long Beach native, so this is a homecoming for the veteran free agent. He played high school ball at Long Beach Poly and attended Cal in college before being drafted by the Eagles in the second round of the 2008 draft.

    Jackson and McVay were both in Washington together from 2014-2016. In 2019, Jackson said he wanted a chance to play for McVay again, and now he’ll get that opportunity.

    Though he’s only played eight games in the last two seasons, he’s still a legitimate deep threat and possesses plenty of speed. He’s led the NFL in yards per reception four times, including in 2018 with the Bucs (18.9).

    If he is still a threat as a PR I will be pleased. I don’t expect much from him as a receiver at this point in his career.

    If correct, I believe the Eagles released him. That means it won’t affect our comp picks next year.

    I like any old crafty veteran WRs.

    A one year deal? Perfect.

    Let Stafford launch some rainbows to him.

    Jackson doesn’t count against the Rams, He was released by the Eagles…..so he doesn’t count in the Comp pick formula

    If we only use him for about 15 plays a game to stretch the field, he might be able to stay healthy.

    It could work.

    I would never have paid that much.
    $1 or $2 million/yr plus some incentives.

    Remember when Mike Martz threw a fit when Cris Carter dallied in Cleveland on his way to St. Louis in order to feign interest in other offers in an attempt to drive up the Rams’ desire for him and Martz, in what may be the apex of his hubris, told Carter to go screw himself if he was going to make Martz late for dinner?

    Yeah.

    I remember that.

    The DeSean Jackson signing just reminds me of that even though they have nothing in common apart from they are two WRs near the end of their careers.

    Yeah. Mike Martz. Where is old Mike now?

    Martz moved to Russia and is doing camping videos in Siberia.
