Buccaneers WR Dexter Jackson A Long Shot To Make The Team?

On the surface, WR Dexter Jackson seems like a long shot to make the final Buccaneers roster when you judge him on last year's performance. What he needs is an incredible training camp and preseason to give coaches reason to pause. They don't have a great deal of depth at receiver, but the fourth or fifth receivers must be big special-teams contributors to justify their roster spots (i.e. Brian Clark and Maurice Stovall) and that area does not appear to be a strength of Jackson's.

He will have to have one of the best camps in all of the NFL in order to make the team.

I had hopes of seeing him get some snaps in the slot but looking at the roster I don't see a spot for him. There are 4 spots locked up with Bryant, Clayton, Stovall, and Stroughter. Like the article said, that 5th receiver is a special teamer. There goes a 2nd round pick down the drain.
