Saints Draft LB D’Marco Jackson

St. Widge said

No doubt. Physically he has everything but perfect height. He can learn to shed blockers better and/or improve his upper body strength. Any guy taken in the 5th will have some issues, but he seems like a good developmental prospect which is about all you are going to get in the 5th. Plus, most MLBs have trouble shedding blockers if a C, OG, or T get their hands on them.

Good post. Sam Mills once said the true MVP of the dome patrol was NT Jim Wilkes. He'd take on the double teams
that allowed the Lb'ers to roam and make plays.

This is pretty much a copy/paste of any MLB prospect. O-Linemen are taller/stronger and outweigh the prospect by
100 pounds. If the O-lineman gets his hands on him he's pretty much erased from the play.

I've watched this game for over 50 years. The only MLB I remember who would throw O-linemen aside on the way to
the ball carrier was Dick Butkus. It's why he's considered to be one of the greatest of all time.
