Drake Jackson-DE-USC, 2nd Round 2022 Draft

I'm sure he'll get plenty of money-down rush snaps. Samson Ebukam's reaction, when asked about Drake, says it all. Drake is super talented and showing it in practice. The way he moves with those wiery, loose limbs and flexibility in his ankles and hips reminds me of Brian Burns.

He's going to benefit a ton from a couple of years in an NFL weight room.

The fact that Ebukam was praising a rookie who he'll be competing for snaps against, tells me this kid must have really impressed our DL group during OTA's. This is the perfect team to help Jackson reach his full potential.

This might end up being one of the steals of the draft. I thought we were set at edge, but I can't complain about this pick at all. This could make up for the loss of the 2019 version of Dee Ford.

Kid was looked at as top 15 pick at the beginning of the college season. USC did him zero favors his time there. I'm pumped to see what he can do with an actual play and legit coaching. He turned 21 this past April too

I wonder how much playing time he'll see In his first year considering the 9ers don't really like throwing the rookies out there on game day unless they have no choice.

I'm expecting him to be a DPR in certain packages. Handful of snaps early on…we got a good rotation at DE

Hopefully Bosa's work ethic rubs off on him

Awesome showmanship, I can see him being a good locker room presence like Kittle if he pans out

That backflip was easy for him. That's an impressive amount of athleticism for his size.
