Here is what NFL draft analyst Mike Mayock said today about Adoree Jackson and cornerback class for this draft.
“This is a great corner class. If you don’t get one in the first round, you can come back in the second or third round and really help yourself. But if you’re looking at 18, I think Sidney Jones and Marshon Lattimore are gone by then. If Sidney Jones is sitting there, I’d jump all over him.
“He reminds me a lot of Marcus Peters, but then I think you’re starting to look at Marlon Humphrey from Alabama. How fast does Teez Tabor run from Florida, Quincy Wilson from Florida. Adoree’ Jackson, I think, is more of a second-round guy, but his talent is through the roof.”
One thing Jackson has over the rest of the field is he’s true three-way player. Defense, Offense, Special Teams.
With the PAC 12 TV package most of USC football coverage was regional at best. So getting seen by the rest of the country is a challenge. His skills are through the roof so he’s a second round pick?
