Scouting Report: Strengths
  • At his best mauling in the run game, playing with a nasty demeanor and consistently keeping it going through the whistle.
  • When his hand placement is right, Jackson has the strong grip that allows him to manhandle opponents. Jackson plays with a mean streak and keeps the nastiness going through the whistle.
  • Quick and nimble, light on his feet. Very athletic blocker on the move. Good slide and hand placement effectively shut down most speed rushers.
  • Has good footwork and technique. Balanced and agile pass protection set with excellent hand placement.
  • Does a nice job on the second level, moving upfield quickly and showing the flexibility and balance to land blocks in space.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
  • Susceptible to speed rushers. Has only average quickness off the snap and doesn't possess the acceleration or arm length to corral defenders once they cross his face.
  • Plays with poor balance, doing too much reaching and lunging when his initial punch is ineffective. Trying to mirror against quickness will be a problem for him.
  • Needs to prove his worth in a straight-ahead running game.
  • Lacks foot speed to be a major threat as a lead blocker outside. Inconsistent latching on and gets lazy, bending at the waist.

*Percentile Ranking in Player's Position Group (NFL Combine Historical Data): This percentile reflects how a player's specific statistics rank in comparison to historical performances at the NFL Combine, specifically within their position group. A higher percentile indicates a better performance. For instance, being in the 90th percentile for a particular stat means the player outperformed 90% of their peers in that category.

*Similarity Percentage: This percentage is calculated based on a comprehensive analysis of various factors, including height, weight, 40-yard dash times, on-field performance statistics, and overall player rating. The analysis is conducted against our database of draft prospects from 2021 to 2023. This similarity score helps in evaluating how closely a current prospect aligns with past prospects. It is important to note, however, that this score reflects similarities based on college production and attributes, and does not account for eventual success or performance in the NFL.
