It's easy, and only takes a few moments.Just the threat that on any given play Brady could huck it down field opens up a helluva lot of stuff underneath.First, deep threats are overrated. Brady isn't going to get a deep threat and start hucking it down the field.
In New England, that is true. Prior to New England, he was viewed very much as the way you're describing JacksonContrary to popular belief, Moss wasn't just running go routes.
Brady is a QB that has the talent to take advantage of whatever tools he has available. No, he didn't throw the ball deep terribly much last year. That might have something to do with the fact that the team's best deep threats were a couple of mediocre-at-best rookies.That isn't his game and it isn't utilizing his skills most effectively. Get a deep threat who can play 10 plays a game and that is enough. Brady is a surgeon, not gun slinger. He's not Brett Favre.
Such as..?Route running CAN BE a function of bad coaching. Most of the time, it is a function of player being incapable of running routes cleanly. There are a lot of bad route running WRs in this league and some of them are on very well coached teams.
Forget off the field.

So pay big money for a decoy.

Moss wasn't known for his route running prior to NE, but he wasn't considered as limited in that area as Jackson is.

Brady takes advantage of what he has, but he still is not a gunslinger. When you think all of Brady's biggest strength, you see the opposite of a need for a deep threat. Ability to read defenses and see the mismatches, able to thread a needle and through tight passes to only where the receiver can catch it, quick release, ability to mount long substained drives that demoralize defenses.

I can't think of anyone of significance off hand other than former Patriots like Joey Galloway, JJ Stokes, Chad Jackson, and others. But to think any receiver can be trained to be a good or great route runner is a little silly. Some players could have best coaching staff of all time and never learn to run a great route. Good route running is a skill. Some players can do it and others can't.

Sources reveal that the gang association is true. Jackson has been reportedly tied to GANG GREEN
Fake. Not sure if you wrote it as a joke or you're just following the wrong Schefter, but yeah.

I am not sure if this has been posted but this is the statement released by Jackson.

It's hard to believe some people are trying to draw a connection between D Jack and Aaron Hernandez

Eagles crazy for lettin @DeseanJackson10 go
Jackson's associated with an accused gang member/murderer the same way Bob Kraft and Bill Belicheck are associated with an accused gang member/murderer. Let's not go too far with this just yet
Honestly, I think the fact that none of his teammates seem to give a crap that he was cut is more of a concern than the purported gang affiliations.
Did you really just make this analogy?
