skinzdar55 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 http://www.espn.com Sorry I can't provide direct link but on ESPN's home page, to the right,on page 2 of sportscenter videos, click on Kiper's view of WRs and TEs. I thought i heard him say this while i was watching on t.v @ 6:00 but wasn't sure so, it took me a while, but i found a video feed of him talking about it. IMO Jackson is a good playmaker but I don't think that he is what the team needs at WR (size wise) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRobi21 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Neither do I. We already have 2 fast speedy guys. We need a tall, high leaper! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smooter Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Yeah I saw that on ESPN.com as well. I was kind of surprised. He is probably better than Moss but still... we don't need him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiveStrongSkins Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 No way... I would rather just keep caldwell and use the pick somewhere else. If Jackson were to fall to the third round then I can see drafting him as a Hester type, but definetly not in the first round. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redman Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 I'm not necessarily a Jackson fan, but talent is more important than height . . . or have you forgotten the big debate over Gardner vs. Moss seven years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elkabong82 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Did Kiper pick Landry for us this far ahead of time? If not, I wouldn't put a lot of stock into what he says when we are more than a month away from the draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He definitely seems to be more of a potential special teams ace rather than a stud wide out. You never know but I for one hope the Skins don't use the #21 pick to find out.

downbeat87 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 apperently kiper didnt read in to him being 5'9 at the combine. i already assumed he was dumb, because hes a draft guru, but man, shouldn't he try to do his job a weeee bit better?

Truant Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Jackson is really short and light, so not too excited about that. But he could probably learn a lot from Santana and model his game after Moss. I think we're replacing a few WRs this year. Lloyd, Caldwell, McCardell may all be gone. Getting a talented small WR and a bigger WR somewhere in the draft (or undrafted FA) could be interesting.

Uno Mas Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Wow, he changed his mind rather quickly. Last night he had us taking CB Aqib. I dont want either at 21. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

909997 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 kiper is an idiot. we already have a 5'9 170 lbs WR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downbeat87 Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 yea and hes not just getting drafted. i cant believe kiper... i think he might just be trying to annoy us fanatics. either way, its stupid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYskins Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Maybe the Iggles or Bucs will take him ahead of us anyway. Sweed is more of a jumper than Jackson. I dont want either IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDSKNfaithfull Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 This Sucks big time :doh: Kiper and Cerrato are like best friends and Mel usually always has some inside infor or makes everything right to draft certain players. Example Taylor Jacobs :doh: :puke: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truant Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 http://youtube.com/watch?v=YPfEkWSEhcYHere are some clips I searched fast. Jackson is pretty amazing. He looks like a young Steve Smith. I don't want the Eagles picking this guy up, that's for sure. His route running was pretty impressive. We could do worse. This is alongside Hardy's videoclip as far as how impressive it is.

I've said all along that I hoped that we would go DL, OL, CB, in the draft and look to FA for a WR, but it seems that the WR pool in FA is drying up as we speak. So heres to a trade for Fitzgerald. (I know, I know, not happening but I can dream can't I ?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiveStrongSkins Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Even though he underperformed last season at Cal... those clips really show how quick he can seperate. He looked to be pretty good after the catch as well. Sometimes I'm guilty of wanting a Wr for height. Steve Smith is one of the best red zone WR's in the game, not because of size but because of tenacity. Jackson's style is identical to Steve Smith. Time will tell if hes as good.

RypienUmApart Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 Meh meh meh Desean Jackson...Redskins need another midget WR..... tomorrow Calais Campbell... the next day Limus Sweed....the next day Rogers Cromartie... I have no life so I make mocks all day and usually get a few right each year...some one look at me... I need to comb my hair. ESPN please don't fire me.

NYskins Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 He did run the fastest 40 at the combine. I like the routes and the speed but honestly I dont see him being available plus I dont want a WR. I have a feeling Sweed or Jackson (and Nelson) will be good though. http://www.nfl.com/videos?videoId=09000d5d806ddc4f Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
