I'll still sign him. Give him a short, incentive laden deal where we can cut ties if any of this gang violence goes south with no cap repercussions. If Woody/Idzik really want him, Idzik will simply throw an offer to him as he's done with other players 'take it or leave it.'
@JasonLaCanfora: The Seahawks, 49ers, Jets, Raiders among the trams that had prior interest in DeSean Jackson, FWIW. Have a gut Seattle is a major player

http://www.nj.com/eagles/index.ssf/2014/03/eagles_desean_jackson_off-the-field_troubles.html Heres the story, he may or may not be a member of the crips, he is associated with members of the crips. On the surface it looks bad but a lot of these NFL players probably have association with various gangs, anyone growing up in any bad area has likely crossed paths with the members, its really nothing shocking. The association is not that big of a deal imo, if he is a member and is has particpated, that is certainly another issue.
Who would have thought that drunk Riley Cooper would have outlasted DeSean Jackson as an Eagle...this speaks volumes as to what the Eagles learned about Jackson's past and perhaps present. I say stay away and try to get a quality WR/TE in the draft as talent runs deep this year in the draft.

have you held up your fingers in the exact position of gang flashes in the same sign of the gang members you associate with, and want us to believe that is just a coincidence? I'm trying to figure out if this horse is stupid or just pretending to be stupid. Horse definitely stupid.
I don't see this happening. I don't know if the Pats will be able to afford him, but I hope they will find a way. They are building up for one last run. This looks decent for them and also the makings for "epic fail". The cameras are coming back this season. BB is linking up some NSA shit for what looks like a one last ditch effort.
I don't care about anything other than Desean catching a football and running with it into the Endzone for about 19 games next season.
Too many red flags for me to want to sign him. This is a deep WR draft class, let's find a WR not associated with the crips.
Francesa is completely overblowing this, holy shit, Jackson was cut because of the contract, they couldnt afford him, sure his past might have affected the decision but I dont think it made the decision. He's like setting up so when the Jets or Patriots sign him, he can completely rip em apart.
