DeSean Jackson, wide receiver, Washington Redskins
Jackson may not have the same buzz surrounding him as he did during his days in Philadelphia, but the 30-year-old receiver is still highly productive. He put up the fifth 1,000-yard performance of his career this past season en route to leading the NFL with an average of 17.9 yards per reception.
That’s the type of down-field threat most teams around the NFL still covet. It’s also going to make Jackson a wanted man when free agency officially gets going on Thursday.
While the Eagles themselves have been bandied about as a potential landing spot, most recent rumors have linked Jackson to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. This makes a ton of sense considering Jameis Winston and Co. are in need of a deep threat to team up with No. 1 receiver Mike Evans.
Winston himself has endorsed the idea of Jackson coming aboard. Meanwhile, this one report has Jackson signing with the Buccaneers at north of $12 million annually once he’s able to put ink to paper. It really makes too much sense at this point.
Prediction: Tampa Bay Buccaneers
