The biggest WR left on the market has been signed, as expected.
Just released on nfl.com, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have signed former Chargers’ WR Vincent Jackson to a 5 year contract worth just under $56 million. $26 million was guaranteed, and Jackson is slated to make $26 million over the first two years in salary, and $36 over the final 3.
Jackson has spent his entire seven-year career with the San Diego Chargers, but the team declined to apply the franchise tag to the receiver for the second year in a row.
He has 272 career catches for 4,754 yards.

Alan has been a passionate Jets fan since 1985. Obviously, that means he is a glutton for punishment, as he has suffered through many Jets disappointments. He remembers Mark Gastineau's late hit in the 1986 AFC Divisional Playoff game like it was yesterday. There have been many more failures than successes, but through it all, Alan has remained true to the Gang Green. He has been blogging for the Jets on various websites for the past 5-6 years. He lives and breathes the NY Jets all year round, and is committed to bringing the Jets passion to "The Jet Press" on a daily basis.
