Why is eveyone so high on DJ Hackett? Isn't he VERY injury prone? What has he done that's so special? To me he's not better ( or worse) than the guys we already have. His only advantage is he knows the offense. No thanks.

He was the leading receiver in the loss we received in the playoffs this year!!!
101 yards I believe 6 or 7 catches!!! The guy is a underrated gem.

He had a good game against us but is he consistent? I think Hackett's been around for 3-4 years and hasn't really had a breakout year. I guess if he's a FA and isn't going to cost much then sign him. But if he's going to cost a lot of $ and or draft pick then I'd say we pass on him.

Well he is just like Bryant Johnson he was overshadowed by Darrell Jackson, Bobby Ingram, Deion Branch & Nate Burelson over the years

Jackson wasn't there last year and Branch is always hurt. Nate B. has been a total bust. The guy that played best was Ingram.

I just want a guy that isn't going to be pulling hamstrings/groins and has some type of history of production. Hackett had some big games last year. But can he stay healthy? And can he be consistent? I'm all for bringing him in here at the right price. But let's not OVERPAY for a guy that's only shown flashes.

Johnson would be good for our WR core. We need a tall wr. Should also take a look at Jerry Porter. Hear is a with a list of all the top Free agent wr's.

1. Randy Moss
2.Benard Berrian
3.D.J. Hackett
4.Bryant Johnson
5.Justin Gage
6.Greg Camarillo
7.Ernest Wilford
8.Jerry Porter
9.Devery Henderson

I understand your point, but let's be serious about this, the only player that Hackett played behind that could be compared to Boldin or Fitzgerald is Branch when he played in NE. None of those other WR's are close to the talent of Boldin or Fitzgerald, not even on there best day are they close...

That's why I said over the years he hasn't been a starter in Seattle

I agree with you but you gotta trust Zorn he has been around him since he got to Seattle I believe it was his call to try to pursue him.

[That Guy]

porter is a bad team guy and not very good. easy pass.

[Stuck in TX]

Bryant Johnson is a great #3 who makes lots of sick passes for a team that cannot seem to make the playoffs. Diamond in the rough, right? To me, he smells alot like Brandon Lloyd. Hackett is when healthy, consistent. And I dont care what anyone says, I will gladly sacrifice a little talent if it means our offense can get on track faster b/c he knows it better than all our other receivers.

[30gut]

Yeah Bryant Johnson makes sense as long he wouldn't cost alot. But then again if it makes too much sense we'll never do it!

His production this year (when healthy) has been very good. His ankle injuries this year and at the end of 2006 are a major concern (he was also out in early 2004 with a hip injury). Not sure if the 2006 & 2007 injuries were on the same ankle.

He's a risk, but this risk is also what will make his contract less. IMO we shouldn't be the high bidder for him, with Zorn here and Hackett's size compared to our receivers, he has great opportunity here and should settle for a bit less to come to DC. If not, move on to Bryant Johnson.
