DeSean Jackson and Pierre Garcon weren’t just Washington’s two most productive receivers last year, they were also two of the most productive receivers in the NFL.

The veterans had 100+ receptions and 1,000+ receiving yards each in 2016, a fact that will undoubtedly earn them some attention once they hit free agency; and make it difficult for Washington to pay them both what they’ll be worth on the open market.

So while it’s hard to imagine that Washington would let them both go, at least one could be playing for a new team in 2017. According to ESPN’s John Keim, the only pending free agent that Washington has spoken to is tight end Vernon Davis. However Keim also pointed out that multiple agents weren’t surprised about not having been contacted yet, since few players want to re-sign right now anyway.

Still, could one or both of the Washington receivers have their eyes on a possible reunion with their former offensive coordinator, Sean McVay?

It’s definitely a possibility. The Rams desperately need to improve on offense, and veteran wide receiver Kenny Britt had a great year in 2016 in spite of having almost no help anywhere else on the field. With better coaching and consistency at the quarterback position, it’s easy to imagine other receivers thriving in Los Angeles next season as well.

So which would be the better fit for the 2017 Rams if they were to get a crack at bringing some free agent receiving talent?

As far as temperament goes, Jackson’s personality might be less suited to joining a young and impressionable unit. If McVay’s as smart as everyone thinks he is, he’ll realize that Garcon is the steadier, more reliable presence on the field; even if Jackson is the more dynamic player.
