| Eagles GM Howie Roseman Says WR Desean Jackson Has "A Bright Future" | | | Eagles general manager Howie Roseman spoke today and while he obviously didn't directly reveal the teams' plans, he did seem to hint that the team wants DeSean Jackson back. "We feel very fortunate to have him on our team," Roseman said Thursday. "He's a player that we drafted, we've grown (with), and we think he's got a great future ahead." Roseman wouldn’t comment specifically on the franchise tag (which the team can apply as soon as Monday) or any talks with the star receiver, saying they are best left between the team and player. Roseman downplayed the idea of signing a quality receiver who might hit the market and could be viable replacement for Jackson. “Without talking about specific players, when you break it down and you look at age or maybe injury history I think that kind of decreases that amount of players at whatever position you’re looking at; and then you’re talking about tags and resigning, so as we sit today it’s going to change,” he said.
