How excited were we when we found out that DeSean Jackson was the newest (at the time) member of the Buccaneers? I think there was a significant section of the state of Florida that couldn’t contain itself, and with good reason. We have seen this player serve a dominant role for years. Even last year, Jackson posted 17.9 yards per reception, proving that he would be the perfect deep threat to play alongside Mike Evans.
It’s still not the same as seeing a player in person though, is it? Think about our own lives. We have all had the chance to witness great players live.
