DeSean Jackson

With Kevin Curtis (sports hernia) and Reggie Brown (Hamstring Pull) out of the lineup last night against the Pats, Jackson got the starting nod and played well.  Speed kills and that was in full display during his 76-yd punt return for a TD.  He also had 4 catches for 67 yds.  The kid has been impressive throughout camp and in each preseason game thus far.  Marty Mornhinweg has devised all kinds of plays for him and the coaching staff, while being cautious in their praise of Jackson publicly, are said to be thrilled with his progress.  The Eagles, historically speaking, haven't had much production from rookie receivers.  In fact, Reggie Brown's 43 receptions in '05 are the most in team history for a rookie.  Jackson looks to be a safe bet to top that mark based on what i'm hearing out of Philly.  Jerry Rice said that Jackson is the fastest receiver he's ever seen.  Throwing in his punt return ability, he's someone i'll have my eye on in the late rounds of my upcoming drafts.
