Malik Jackson is a Stud!

[shawinkerpoppin]

Uh did you watch the playoff game vs Pittsburgh?

Ayers is a beast. Outside of Von he makes that package what it is sliding into DT

ayers had a good game. He is by no means a beast. Did you watch the entire season? He is decent against the run and below average against the pass and not strong enough to play inside.

[shawinkerpoppin]

Im curious. What do you think this guys role is?

[Br0nc0Buster]

I think Jackson is supposed to be what Jeremy Jarmon was

Guy who can relieve Ayers and Doom at times on the edge while also kick inside to DT on passing downs

Will rotate with Ayers. And can move inside on passing downs.

I finally got a chance to really look into him. Looks like he played inside more than outside in college. If I was looking at the right person he did pretty well against the run. With a 6'5 frame I wouldnt be surprised if he were to bulk up some and make DT his permanent position. I just don't see him as an edge rusher.

itd be nice if ayers could produce more pressurers n sacks this year...

Jackson and Trevathan are the best picks in this draft.

Worst: Bolden.

[samparnell]

Derek Wolfe and Malik Jackson seem like DTs who can provide interior pass rush the way the Giants do. Luke Richesson will strengthen and bulk them, and Nunnely will coach them primarily as 1-3 techs. They both played 1-3 tech in college.

The DL personnel JDR has seems indicative of one gap run D.

The worst pick is Philip Blake. Similar to Walton, may be slightly better in a few years but the problem is that he's 26 years old already and will turn 27 in the middle of the year.

Ayers-Wolfe-Jackson-Dumerville

Blitz Miller...

Qb wonders which truck hit him...

[shawinkerpoppin]

Im not trying to get carried away but watching Jackson inside he kind of reminds me of when I was watching brockers inside. Of course brockers has a good 40-50 pounds on the guy but I think Jackson may be developed into that role of a pocket pusher/run stuffer.

At 6'5" and 6'6", they can limit throwing lanes from the pocket. Pass rush seems to have been the emphasis on the DL selections.

Dumervil's upfield, circling rip move usually separates the OT from the OG creating space for a similar move by a DT.

Ayers and Miller on the same side cause protection scheme problems and would tend to focus backfield pass protection to that side.

Dumervil has a knack for causing fumbles, and I've heard the same about Jackson. Bronco defenders named Jackson bring back many fond memories.

There's an obvious problem with this: Teams would already know Miller is blitzing. It would be pretty evident, IMO, and if he didn't blitz they would probably not mind it too much even if it were accounted for.

I say pass downs should be Dumervil - Ayers/Jackson - Wolfe - Miller. Have Ayers and Jackson battle that job out.

"This is the pick the Broncos received from St. Louis in the Brandon Lloyd trade. A favorite of Rotoworld draft guru Josh Norris, Jackson has a prototypical five-technique body at 6-foot-6, 284 pounds (with nearly 34-inch arms). He still needs to get stronger, however, and should spend the bulk of his rookie year developing. Jackson could eventually play multiple positions for a Broncos team that likes to flash various defensive fronts under John Fox."

34 INCH ARMS! Lots of batted balls, I hope.

I think this is the perfect late round pick. Has potential & was productive on the field. He can drop back in coverage and control the flats, has hands, is BIG.

Another combo DL, and fits the NYG NASCAR mold. He may not develop into anything, but at least he's worth the shot.

Didn't hit it out w/ Beale, but perhaps this guy has a chance. Up to him now to hit the weight room and want it. Has the body & athleticism to excel... Will have the coaching.

Wolfe & Jackson could be gold, giving our DL that dynamic dimensions we need to compliment our edge rushers.

On certain passing downs, we could switch to 3-4 front. Warren at nose, with Ayers-Jackson on ends. Doom & Gloom standing on the outside.
