Ted Ginn/Desean Jackson

I happen to really like Ted Ginn... Even before I adopted him.. People always say Ginn is fast but doesnt run good routes and has average hands but the tape doesnt lie.. Not only did he catch everything thrown to him but he always got seperation and ran nice strong routes even when the play wasnt going to him. As for Jackson, time will tell. Same with Ginn because he is young but I love what I saw out of him last year and am real glad we have him on the fins.

NFL Draft Dog rates his speed in the 40 at 4.38, fast but wasn't Ginn a 4.22? NFL Draft Scout gives him a lowest 40 at 4.27, and Ginn a 4.30 so they have Jackson faster. I may be wrong but I could swear I read Ginn had a 4.22 at some point.

Jackson had injury problems last year so his production is not fair to judge, except with injury problems he did catch 65 passes, pretty good for a shortened season. Not sure I know enough to make a judgment. Seems a pointless argument though.

Today I had a conversation with a friend about our very own Ted Ginn and Desean Jackson. He said that Jackson was faster which I dont recall him running a 4.32 on a BAD foot and running an unofficial 4.06 forty. Also, my friend said that Desean Jackson was a better route runner and had better hands than Teddy. In the end, he said that Jackson was going to be better lol without any support behind his theory.

What are your thoughts?

Sounds like your friend is either a Ginn hater or a Jackson lover......will he be better than Ginn?? Who knows, but sounds like he's talking out of his A--.

That's what I told him and he rambled on lol. Ginn has good hands and route running as he displayed last year in catching 34 of 36 passes thrown his way. I believe the two incompletion's were bad throws. I said that Ginn would end up being better.

I believe Ginn ran a 4.38 forty while he had planter fascitis (sp?), I believe thats what the injury he had. I know as a Freshmen at OSU, he ran a 4.06 forty but then again that was four years ago.

Desean Jackson ran a 4.35 forty at the combine.

I dont know why people talk trash about Ted Ginn he is fast and can cathch the ball and he must run good routes because how else could he get open to catch the ball

i actually disliked ginn in college i thought he was a flashy over hyped player and when i heard his name called in the draft by the fins i was mad

and i was wrong after watching him play i think he is the guy we have been looking for to spark the offense(with ronnie of course) he catches everything, runs nice routes and has game breaking speed i cant wait to see what beck and ginn can do with a revamped oline and with ronnie on the field

Lol total opposite here. He was one of my favorite players to go along with Meriweather and Kenny Phillips.

Please DeSean came to Cal weighing 167 and left Cal weighing 167. Its quite obvious the guy doesn't lift. Ted Ginn will be the better WR in the NFL.

178 :up:

I agree that Teddy will be a better player. I love DJack but I dont think he will be better, no homerism intended.

I'm sorry he came to Cal weighing 169 :lol: left Cal 169.

LOL I saw on NFL.com Combine Results that he was 6'0 178. One of these is wrong, the question is which?

I don't care what his 40 is, all I know is when he's in the open field, you're not catching him. I also love the fact that there is no angle to get on Ted Ginn, you have to be in front of him to have a shot.

that is so true. as a michigan fan, i watch him burn us time after time in college. I cant wait until our offence gets to a point where he's doing the same thing for us, instead of those damn buckeyes
