I agree he won't be near as good inside as outside. If we really need an MLB - if we have another losing season we could land the kid from UVA.
As far as Jackson - this is the Northern Colorodo kid? (Colorodo is a funny word) If so what kind of DBs did he go against. Not saying he couldn't be great, but I doubt he's a replacement for Mike Williams. Same thing with that Alabama QB turned WR. He's a great athelete, but I think he may ultimately WANT to be a QB kinda like that Crouch guy. Though I wouldn't be against the Northern Colorodo guy, I'd rather have Edwards or Williams by a long shot!

Daseal, that is the big knock on him he hasen't gone up against elite competition, it's the only reason keeping him out of the first rd.which is what is going to make him a steal. You can make a similar argument about Williams, he played in a superior offense, an NFL structured offense, going up against inferior coached team's comparativly, which brought Williams a lot of success because of mismatches created on the college level that wont be there when he get's to the NFL, not to mention a top flight college QB. I still feel William's will be a monster in the red zone though, my support of Jackson is not a knock on Williams, I just feel he will be better than Williams and at a much cheaper price that would allow us to draft Rolle as well. I believe if Jackson played for USC his whole carreer the draft buzz right now would have him going before Williams. Jackson is very aggresive I watched his combine and you can see a player who really is trying to out due himself with everything he does he has the desire to work and get better, and he will.
