DeSean Jackson doesn't want to talk about the 2011 season. "Last year was last year. Regardless of the stats and the numbers I put up, I still felt I wasn't too far off with my average per year and all that," Jackson said Thursday as he met with the media for the first time since signing a five-year deal with the Eagles. "Even when everyone else can say it's a bad year, I was still 40 yards from 1,000. I don't really like to get caught up in that stuff. I still want to go out and play with the edge that I'm still the best receiver in the NFL." The contract comes after a season in which he held out of training camp because he wanted an extension and let the contract situation affect him. He was deactivated for a game for being late for a team meeting, dropped more passes than usual and his production dropped. He finished with 961 yards and four touchdowns. "I live my life to be prepared for any given situation that it is at any given time. I never thought once that I might be here because I've always felt confident in my skills and what I can do," Jackson said. "I just really wanted to tighten up and not necessarily prove to everybody but just show them what I can do."
