Jackson Signs a Palatable Deal

The Rocky Mountain News reports that Darrell Jackson signed a $1.5 million contract with escalators that could raise his salary to $2 million. The deal is for one year. Given that Jackson is one year removed from being among the league's elite wide receivers, this is a deep discount. Let's hope that Jackson's woes in San Francisco were a function of Alex Smith.

Darrell Jackson Inked to One-Year Deal

The Rocky Mountain News reports a one-year deal with Darrell Jackson is imminent assuming he passes his physical. The 29-year-old receiver has reached the 1000-yard receiving mark 3 times in his career, has surpassed the 60-reception mark 5 times, and has scored 50 touchdowns in an 8-year career. Jackson was lost to the black hole in San Francisco in 2007 before being cut earlier this spring. He's had some durability issues, but a healthy D-Jack is among the premier wide receivers in the NFL today. The terms of his deal have not yet been disclosed.
