DeSean Jackson vs. Fred Barnett
So DeSean Jackson wants a new contract. We all know this, he has seemingly been a baby about it all year. He thinks he is one of the elite players in the league and deserves to be paid like one. Well, in his first three years, I see him a very much like a former Eagle and the stats seem to back this up.
No, not Mike Quick. No, not Terrell Owens either. It's Fred Barnett!!
Lets go to the numbers.
- Fred Barnett (First Three Seasons)
- Games Played: 42
- Receptions: 165
- Yards: 2752 (16.67 per)
- Touchdowns: 18
-
Longs in each year of 95, 75, 71

DeSean Jackson (First Three Seasons)
- Games Played: 45
- Receptions: 171
- Yards: 3124 (18.26 per)
- Touchdowns: 17
- Longs in each year of 60, 71, 91
Now, I liked Fred Barnett, he was a solid receiver, but no superstar. DeSean, you may look like you can become a superstar, but show me you are before you try and force me to treat you like one.
