Detroit Lions: East-West Shrine showcases NFL draft talent, Senior Bowl
Michael Jackson, Sr., CB, Miami, 6-0, 205, 4.48*
Jackson has the look of a prototype cornerback, demonstrating speed, size, and playmaking ability.
His draft stock is up for debate but it’s hard to deny that outside of the top few options, Greedy Williams, Byron Murphy, and DeAndre Baker, Jackson has some of the best upside as an athlete.
At the “U” Jackson has played both man and zone coverage techniques and done well, earning second-team All-ACC honors as a junior and honorable mention in 2018.
Jackson still has a chance to be drafted in the first three rounds if he has a good game in St. Petersburg and a solid draft process.
