I did not see this happening. I'm not sure whether I should be pleased or not.

I'm with you on this one. I have pros and cons for this move. But I will wait to see how the salary cuts happen.

And include me in the group with reservations about resigning Jacobey, especially since I really like a couple of the UNFAs WRs the Texans reportedly signed yesterday. However they apparently don't have one very important thing that JJ has which is long-speed.

I think I am for this as Jacoby is a break away threat, reduced his drops/fumbles and matured over the years, and contract is reasonable given similar player salaries.

I did find these stats for WR in 2010
http://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/wr

Jacoby catch/play to him success rate is 65% which appears pretty high.

For instance Santonio Homes is considered a top FA WR , his completion percent was only 54%. T.O was 52%, Randy Moss 44%, Larry Fitzgerald 52%

Of course stats are stats, who was competition, who was QB, what was the play call all enter into these stats, but Jacoby looks ok.
