Is anyone still starting DeSean Jackson?

I thought with Maclin out that Jackson would explode. Instead, he's dropping TD passes and getting benched. I know he's a head case, but I thought he'd be performing with his contract on the line.

Is it time for him to ride the pine?

I started him in TDFL, but I also have Maclin so he was out and Bennett without Cutler wasn't appealing.

My other two starting WR this week were Andre Johnson and Nate Washington so I guess DeSean was the top performer of the bunch.

But going forward, I guess you're benching him? I have some other options, but none great. Could pick someone up, but not much is available. Wa hoping that Darius Heyward-Bey would pan out, but he's not lighting it up.

Probably not... if I'm even going forward. I need some points from Brees/Sproles and then maybe some help to make the playoffs.

It depends on Maclin though... if Maclin is back I'll probably swap them out.

Maclin has been the number one this year, once he is healthy he is clearly the guy to start if you have both.

Once Julio is fully recovered from his stupid hammy, Jackson is on the bench for me.

Bump for more discussion. Saw on CBS that Jackson is officially starting this week. The game is Thursday, so I don't have much time. Put in for Gaffney on waivers, but don't feel like he's the option.

Any thoughts?

I'd start Desean over Gaffney


Who are they other options

None besides Darius Heyward-Bey. I think I'm going with DeSean. Not sure why he dropped those two passes this week. Not sure what's up with Reid. I just need points. He had 7.3 this week. That's not the worst. DHB could lay an egg. Gaffney might lose more catches to Moss.

At this point DeSean is most likely on the way out of Philly. Therefore he needs to pad those stats in the coming weeks if he wants any kind of payday in the offseason from another team. Just don't count on him going or catching anything over the middle. I would def start him over Gaffney & Heyward Bay

I'm fed up with D-Jax. Going to play Decker instead.
