Carolina Panthers select Donte Jackson - CB - LSU

[Jeremy Igo]

Jackson has translated his exceptional speed into a successful collegiate career in track and football. He won state high school titles in the 100 and 200 meters, and joined the Tigers' track squad to race in the 60 and 100-meters and win conference titles in the 4x100 relay. Jackson's play on the football field is what really intrigues scouts. He played in all 12 games, starting once, as a true freshman (26 tackles, one interception, two pass breakups). Jackson started 11 of 12 games in 2016, intercepting two passes, breaking up six others, and being credited with 39 tackles. SEC coaches voted him second-team all-conference in 2017, as he started 12 of 13 games played, posting 49 stops, 3.5 for loss, an interception, and 10 pass breakups.

I don’t hate it but hope we finally address safety at some point.

I don't like it with Oliver and Reid still available. This confirms that Captain is firmly in the doghouse. Wasted FA signing. I guess we don't think Corn is the answer at nickel either. I can't see Jackson playing outside.

I guess thats a good pick!?

[Jeremy Igo]

Not a big fan of this pick. Everyone talking about his speed. Teddy williams was fast as poo.

Who knows 

[zacka77ack]

Someone tell me how to feel about this one....

[App Panther]

Good value and a position of need. I'd rather have had Reid, naturally, but like the Moore pick can't be upset about this.

[Daddy_Uncle]

Not who Iwanted. Can see him as a bust. I hope I am wrong

[Ja Rhule]

Hurney continues to poo all over 2nd round picks

[The Huddler]

i love it

 

beef up the secondary

[electro's horse]

lol this dude has no idea how to play football

he's just a fast dude with long dreads

that's the hurney i know and love

[Ricky Spanish]

Not a fan. Feels like a vintage hurney second rounder. Small undersized corner who is fast. 

[RJK]

i don't see where he fits being so slight other than nickel....as a 2nd?
