i agree, i was looking at Devin Thomas'es one full year stats(last year) and whew!! Given his size and speed and that he can return Kicks, not like Jackson, but he is adequate--if Thomas is there at 19, grab him.
Desean Jackson. He may be an exceptional kick returner but what are the odds he is another Devin Hester???? Plus we need a Big WR.Max

There is one thing i have no idea, but the coaches do, and that is IF Desean Jackson has GREAT HANDS(my hands are glue type hands) i would think they will take him.
One the top 5 pass receivers in Eagles history was Harold Jackson, he was great!
But man he was small, but i frankly can NOT remember Harold Jackson drop a pass.
He could go up amongst big guys and bring down the ball.
If i was scouting Jackson, and felt he had Great Hands, i would take him.
Harold Jackson is also in my personal top 5 favorite Eagles of AllTime(i was miserable when they traded him to get Roman Gabriel)

Where are They Now -Harold Jackson.
philadelphiaeagles.com

He was listed as 5'10" 170, but i think 5'9 160 more likely:)
BTW i have a great tendency to go bonkers on small guys, as i was all of 5'8", 160:)
And here's a tip of the hat to Billy "White Shoes" Johnson.
That 5'8" 160 lb. asthmatic from Widener College , who only ended up in the NFL Hall of Fame!!!
