According to Mike Florio ...

?

 

He isn't worth it.

 

They're asking way too much for him. He's definitely worth a 3rd. Maybe 2nd. Not both. And certainly not a 1st and 2nd. Laughable.

I really wish we could go get this guy but I'd only be willing to give up a 2nd.

 

A 1 and a 2 is ridiculous for Jackson. Marshall was had for 2 2's besides Vjax is one more hiccup from being suspended for an entire year.

 

A guy with 2 DUI's, asking $10 million a year, and giving up 2 early round draft picks?? Cant see the pats doing this even with the 8 draft picks they have in the first 4 rounds of next years draft.

 

Why else would AJ Smith ask for such ridiculous compensation for a WR that's a conservatively 15th best receiver in the league............he doesn't want to get rid of him.

In the end Jackson will sign his RFA tender just to get credited for the season and once VJ hits free agency Smith will slap the franchise tag on him and all's well in the kingdom especially for Jackson since he'll get his money with the franchise tender.
