Absolutely. Cheap, humbled, has played in our system. There's no downside.

We've got great leverage at WR/special teams. Hard to believe two good, not great receivers held us hostage last year.

I think Jackson is also a good KR option. Obviously, nobody really knows what goes on behind the scenes on this team. There's a lot of contract situations (Moss) and it's hard to predict any other WR positions except Welker.

We will have talent and, likely, our #5 will play special teams.

Exactly. Those 2 TD runs last week has earned him some dough in FA this year.

I would prefer a guy like BJ returning than Hobbs, Faulk or Welker. Starting corner and receiver returning is risky if they get injured which is always possible. Same with the 3rd down back we already have lost Morris we don't want to be down to 1 HB. BJ can do that job and we need not worry too much if he gets hurt he knows the system so could also come in if anything happens to a receiver (touch wood it won't). He should also be cheap which is a plus.
