In terms of function, he's like a Cam Lewis: nickel CB, safety and special teams. Physically, he's taller and faster, but a bit on the slender side for a safety. If he does play more safety, he might want to add 15 lbs of lean muscle.
He has alopecia (spontaneous loss of hair. My wife and I had an adopted daughter with alopecia. Periodically she would lose clumps of hair. I don't know if Jackson lost all of his or he just kept losing so much of it that going cue ball just made sense. Russian contract killer is not a bad look for a defensive end though.
He's got the size and the physical ability. He needs a ton of work on technique. I don't think they will get much production out of him this season. The future depends on how coachable he is.
I'm OK with TJ Sanders as a 3 tech, but this leaves me worried about run defense. The Bills struggled to defend the run in 2024 and so far they've done nothing personnel wise to address this.
Could stand to add some lean body mass and strength and needs to work on tackling technique. All of that is doable. He checks most of the other boxes. The only thing he can't add is 2 or 3 inches to his height. He has man, press and zone coverage ability.
It was common for slave owners to rape female slaves. Children were still slaves, but bore the last name of the owner. He could be named for the infamous slave holding family but that doesn't make him guilty of that legacy.
Wit Tyleik Williams gone, I think Buffalo will try harder to trade down. 1 techs look to be in short supply. If they could trade into the second round, they could try and get Alfred Collins. Then they can try to get their CB at #56 or #62.
Interesting, I have a tab up on my computer to follow Drafttek's running computer simulation of the draft. Kenneth Grant had been their projection for the Bills' pick, but when Miami took him, Drafttek projected Jalon Walker to the Bills. He would play more edge in Buffalo than linebacker.
Oops! Now Will Johnson
Your first and second round players total 44 players including some borderline 2nd/3rd round picks. That means that more third round values will be drafted in the second round than second round values.
