Maclin is A Pure Playmaker

Jeremy Maclin isn't the veteran pass catcher that many Eagles fans wanted to trade for but he is a pure playmaker.  

Whether he is returning a punt, running with a reverse or making a guy miss after a catch.

This guy is a great punt returner, so you know that means he's great at running with the ball after a catch.

A number of fans called 610-WIP to say Maclin was another DeSean Jackson which wouldn't be a bad thing, but he's not quite as fast as Jackson at 4.4 in the forty.

He's bigger than Jackson who is only 5'10 180 pounds.  Maclin is 6'0" 200 lbs.  He's got great hands and will make the tough catch over middle and hang onto it.

Andy Reid has already made it clear that he's going to get the ball in this kid's hands on quick screens, reverses and other gadget plays while he's learning the offense.

Of course he will help them immediately while taking the punt return duties from Jackson, most of the time.
