Both very productive and D-J tested way better than average physically IIRC. Kind of surprised they were passed over.
Thought Jackson and Dumas-Johnson would've gotten drafted
- Thread starter gamecockcat
- Start date
Especially surprised about Jackson, it's too bad he didn't get to hear his name called but he'll get his chance somewhere.
I believe the two are seen as 1 or 2 down players in NFL. Good playing in the box against the run but struggling against the pass.
The knock on JDJ at UGA was he struggled in the open field and coverage, elite against the run. But I think every team needs a player like him, not an every down player but there is a place for him
I think djack gets drafted without that injury. I don't think he even got to perform on pro day.
He continued that struggle at UK. Anytime he had to cover, it was not good. He was in position just too slow although he ran s good 40.
Its a shame because 15 years ago hes maybe a first round pick.

Yep you are correct, he is an elite old school MLB, but struggles in coverage. Like you said his speed isn't bad so it is hard to understand why he struggles in coverage as bad as he does.
I was thinking Eli Cox would get a late round call, especially given his ability to play three positions.
If Eli Cox makes a team I will eat a piece of cardboard. He has been terrible the past two seasons.
