Id be all over bringing Jackson in. He's straight salary, so no loss if we have to go a different direction down the road, and Bowe's ass needs to be gone next season anyway. His drug-related suspension lets us off the hook for some of the guaranteed money in his contract. The guy is definitely not producing at the level he should be for the contract that he signed.
You also have to look at the possibility that DJ may not be coming back either. We've missed his presence in the middle, but we've been serviceable with JMJ and Mauga in the middle, and once Mays is in there, I think we can get by without having to drop the bigtime money that Johnson is going to command, after age 30 and coming off of a devastating Achilles injury.
Also need to see how it goes in terms of getting by without Eric Berry. Guy has barely played this season on our tough schedule, and we're 3-3. If Reid doesn't give a couple games away through shit playcalling, were 4-2 or 5-1 without him. Sinking huge money into so many players hurts the team badly when they aren't available to be on the field.
Our offense is terrible at the WR position. Jackson is a stud WR that can help us win now. Hell, he would probably even boost Bowe's production by his presence on the field alone. If the price is right, Id be all over going for Vincent Jackson.

as far as kelvin benjamin goes hindsite is 20/20, hopefully it is for dorsey as well. im hoping he has finally realized how badly this team needs to draft some wrs, or at least bring some in. however, even though he did fail last offseason to bring in a wr, he has made our roster stronger, and a lot of guys hes drafted look promising.
i didnt know vjaxs contract made him easy to cut, but what does that matter. it is an awful idea to piss away a 2nd or 3rd rounder on a guy when you cant win a super bowl with because you have too many holes elsewhere, only to cut him the next year. but im pretty sure bowes suspension only affected his cap number for a few weeks this season. as far as i know, we would owe him a massive amount of money next year if we cut him. if not for that id be a little more open minded to the trade.
