found a few posts about dex's camp performance:
"11:50: After a break at practice, Dexter Jackson, one of the players clearly on the hot seat here, came up with the play of the day so far. Going against double coverage, rookie QB Josh Freeman hit Jackson on a 30-yard fade route at the goal line for a touchdown, much to the delight of the heavy and enthusiastic (albeit quite warm) crowd."
"Wide Receiver/Tight Ends - Antonio Bryant is on his game. I didn't really notice Winslow...... though Sammy Stroughter and Dexter freaking Jackson looked like they can be contributors. You heard right.... and I didn't stutter. Dexter..... Jackson. He made more high quality plays in the team drills than any of the other guys tonight. He deserves to make the team. As does Brian Clark, and maybe Kelly Campbell. Maurice Stovall might be S.O.L., unless he is deemed too invaluable on special teams. He doesn't look like a WR at all."
"Five Stars of the Practice
#5 - Sammy Stroughter - good quickness in and out of his routes, and didn't drop anything that he could catch. Josh Johnson and Freeman over/under threw him several times.
#4 - Jimmy Wilkerson - was quick off the snap all night, and was really driving home the point that he wants to play. You can't help but notice him because he's so disruptive. Overpursued on some run plays, but did real well.
#3 - Elbert Mack - he is Ronde Barber to Byron Leftwich's Donovan McNabb. The kid has Lefty's number in a bad way. Had one nice pick, and caused a tip on a nice read that resulted in another Lefty pick.
#2 - Dexter Jackson - word is he got gassed this morning, but he was all over the place tonight. Made a couple of dandy sideline catches (one where he layed out and dragged the toes perfectly), and beat Piscitelli and Mack for a couple more down the field.
#1 - Antonio Bryant - he's in mid-season form. I think, honestly, that we upset him with the contract.... and he looks like he may be a man on a mission this year. We'll be reaping benefits."
"Dexter Jackson - Who is this guy and what did they do with Mr. Wimpy? Diving go catches? Using his blazing speed to get wide open? Jiminy Christmas. Apparently the writing is on the wall and Dex read it."
"- Dexter Jackson, some of you may assume, is doing so well up against the camp fodder. Not so. Today he did his best work against Barber and Talib. "
