GREAT get here imo. He is a CLASSY kid, a hard worker and someone who will likely step in and play early.
My take on Jaquez Jackson.
STRENGTHS
AREAS FOR IMPROVEMENT
RIVALS TAKE
Jackson is a smart player. He is not the fastest, the biggest or the most explosive, but he plays at a good speed, he plays smart and he knows how to locate and get to the football. I like his play. He can play inside linebacker, he can play outside linebacker and he is used as an edge rusher in some sub-packages. He delivers some pop when he tackles, but he can improve on his pad level there and being more consistent as a wrap up tackler. He is always going to play hard. He hustles until the whistle blows. What Georgia Tech is ultimately getting is a sound linebacker who I project to make a lot of tackles on the next level. He will be a leader for the Jackets and I like this take a lot.
