Players like Megatron are one in a generation. If Jackson comes here, he'd play the role of deep threat receiver like he does in Philly, and he'd be enormously overpaid for that role. We can draft a player to fill that same role for a whole lot cheaper, with a lot less drama.

We can draft a player to fit a lot of roles, but that doesn't mean you'll get the same level of production out of him. Who fills the deep threat role in the NFL better than he does? AJ Green? Josh Gordon? That's about it. He's top 3 at his role and top 10 at his position. A position that just so happens to get big money. So yeah, we can draft a guy to fill that role. But we already know what Desean does in that role. A rookie is nothing more then a question mark. With that said, I rather we just draft someone too for 10 milli. But the draft ain't guaranteeing anything.

He only comes to Deathstar nation if Jerry Jones pays him in Nachos and Texas BBQ. They have no money to go after this guy.
