Jameis Winston gets deep threat he wanted in DeSean Jackson

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers will sign wide receiver DeSean Jackson, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Here is more on the move:

Terms: Not immediately available

Grade -- A: This is the player quarterback Jameis Winston wanted badly, and he let it be known to those close to him and publicly. Now the Bucs have a replacement for Vincent Jackson, even though he's a different type of receiver. Jackson's 4.35 speed in the 40-yard dash provides an attribute that's long been missing from the Bucs offense, and he presents a different type of challenge for opposing defenses -- they'll no longer be able to double up on the big-bodied Mike Evans and will think twice about shadowing him with their best cornerback.
