Donte Jackson thus far: 3 Interceptions 25 Tackles in Four Games & 70.4 Passer Rating Allowed (5th among rookie DBs)

It’s really amazing how little talk there is surroundig Donte Jackson. I understand Carolina is a “small market team,” but this is getting ridiculous at this point.

Anyways, have to say I’ve never been more impressed with a rookie corner than Donte thus far. Tbh, could’ve had four interceptions or even more had he not dropped a few.

EDIT: He also has allowed a 70.4 passer rating, good for 5th best for all rookie DBs. Really incredible.

We will, very soon play a good QB or two. Interested to see how he looks in those games

 

    To be fair. He has played against ryan, and Dalton. Two pretty good QBs. Hopefully, he can keep getting better every week. But a pretty good start for the kid.

It's impressive but not DROY impressive. He will have to pick off some great QB's to get there. 

 

    I mean, Is there any particular reason he needs to win DPOY? Because, as of right now. The kid is playing really well, and is making us a better team. Not sure he needs to win any awards to validate that.

Probably fans want to see it because Lattimore deservedly got it last year.

    Yeah, most fans love to see players from their team getting accolades. As fans, we seem to over value/love our own, so that part I understand. But what does Latimore have to do with it? That one does kinda confuses me. I mean, he did not beat out one of our own for that award. 

 

    It is just nice to have one of our own even in the running for something like this. Been a while for us.

    • Watched the recent Mic'd up which had the Bucs game. This angle makes that fumble look so much worse, pretty sure it was inbetween Bryce's hands.   bbb.mp4
    • Here is what you did not mention (and I have not read the thread--but will--it is a needed) and that is the MAFF.  He is in a contract year (2026-5th year) and we will not know (in all likelihood) how the knee is healing by the time we have to decide on a mega deal.   If you consider the time it takes to fully heal is 12 months if all goes well, the injury is known to shorten careers.  Of course, a man of 330 lbs who needs agility to perform at a high level makes the injury a bit more serious than it was for Jimmy Graham, for example, who recovered in a remarkable 9 months.  Having said all that, I think he should be moved inside to guard.   While many NFL linemen can return to play after patellar tendon surgery, studies show a significant failure rate and reduced performance, with return-to-play (RTP) rates often cited around 50-56%, meaning roughly 44-50% don't make it back, and even those who do often see reduced careers and statistics, highlighting it as a devastating injury for linemen." I think you have to go after an elite OT, and I think it should be a first rounder because you don't sign elite LTs in free agency.  Ickey is already going to get paid $18m or so in 2026.    However, the money you save by not locking him down long term could go to a free agent edge or ILB.  It is very complicated if you start factoring in contracts, risks, cap, and the odds of recovery.    
    • Yes, we played the 2nd most cover 3 in the NFL behind the Raiders.   The flats and seams are the areas you want to attack it so its soft spots are areas qbs can hit quickly which can definitely hurt the pass rush.
