12 catches in 2 preseason games is pretty damn impressive and he should be a beast on punt returns. I think Jackson is the rookie of the year if he stays healthy.
 
The steal of the draft could be Chad Henne. Its really hard to tell until real games start being played.

But, tell me the bears arent kicking themselves for not taking Henne in round 2. What is with the bears organization?? Who's running things up there? Cam? Seriously, when you go into a draft and your QBs are Grossman and Orton and you dont bother taking a guy who was a 4 year starter at Michigan and projected in round 2, youre kind of lost.

Well I think Baltimore screwed the pooch by taking Flacco but I dont think Ortan has had a fair shot and he may prove solemthing this year. I always liked Ortan coming out of college. I still think Jackson is the steal of the draft, you get everything that people think about Ginn on this board but more polished.
 
Can these guys play a regular season game, at least one, before we start crowing them? Preseason means NOTHING.
 
We will see what a steal he is now that Kevin Curtis is out.

I don't have the heart to tell these guys that if Kevin Curtis is healthy Desean Jackson will be about 4th string WR on the Eagles depth chart. Some steal.....

Yea receivers catch 6 passes a game in preseason all the time lol. Give the guy some credit, hell if Ted Ginn was doing that people would be predicting probowl. Guarantee that Jackson will not be 4th string when the season starts.

Preseason means something, it shows at least he may live up to his potential. If a player can get it done during preseason, u have hope he can do it when the games count. I guess we cant tell anything about Henne or Long from preseason and of course Donald Thomas will probably be a scrub because its only preseason

According to your profile you are 42 so you have watched long enough to know preseason doesn't mean anything. I can name tons of guys who were great in preseaosn only to disappear when the games started to count. No one was having as better preseason at WR than David Clowney for us, does that mean he's going to be a great WR? of course not.

So if Favre was 31 for 31, 454 yards and 8 TDs in the preseason, that would mean nothing?

Correct. 2 years ago Chad didn't lead the first team offense to a single TD yet opening week he led us to 3. All I care about w/ Favre is that he gets his work in and gets comfrotable and whtehr he perfomrs well(like he did last week) or poorly it doesn't really matter.

Well in JACKSON'S CAse it may mean he earns a starters job. Preseason always means something it just has to be taken into context. Jackson is looking real good. Hell if I say he will be good after three weeks in regular season than its just stating a fact instead of predicting something. I also agree Colt Brennan will suprise, he was always overrated but he is a good prospect.
