Usually in the movies the kid in school with the glasses gets picked on, but in the case of Jackson who sports goggles offensive linemen may want to keep quiet and try and get on his good side. The defensive tackle is a high energy and active player. He has adequate height and listed bulk, but he is a thickly built and muscular kid and he does not raise size concerns. He may though be close to his limit in the ideal bulk he can add and not have an ideal reach. He looks to mainly play the nose in his high school's 34, though that is not likely his best fit at the college level. He could be a little more consistent in his get-off, but he is a kid that can get penetration and cause disruption. He is solid at the point-of-attack and can take on blocks and hold his ground. Displays the ability to be able to come off the ball with good pad level and get leverage. He is good at bringing his hands and being able to engage and defend his gap. He also does a good job of being able to read blocks and get hands on. Displays the ability to be able to come across the line, stay square, locate the ball, and be able to re-direct and get down the line-of-scrimmage. He has a good motor and is active along the line. He is a solid tackler, but needs to be sure to take good angles and wrap up to maximize his ability to finish. He is capable of creating a pass rush from the interior of the trenches. He will be active with his weapons and use them to try and work past blockers. Jackson can be a disruptive presence who can also battle in the trenches and is a good prospect at the defensive tackle position.
