Drake Jackson-DE-USC, 2nd Round 2022 Draft | Page 61

Not surprised he is inactive. I won't trust him to pass rush with discipline in this game. We need to do our best to make Jalen Hurts beat us in the pocket.

Just to clarified, I am still high on him for next season.

Hopefully someone other than Bosa can get to Hurts. If we are unable to pressure him it's game over

It won't be game over, but it'll make easier for Hurts to go through all his progressions.

This. This game we need gap integrity and discipline on RPOs. Would love his athleticism for chasing down Hurts but unfortunately he just hasn't earned the trust of Ryan's.

I have big expectations for Drake next year. As long as he hits the weights and keeps working on his technique, I expect him to become a fixture in our DL.

Improve those hands, young blood. Beat the hands, beat the man.

"I think Drake showed what he can be, but he needs to become what he can be" - Shanny

"His body needs to get right" - Shanny

Looks like Shanahan saw it the same. Drake needs to bust his ass off this offseason because he has the talent.

Hope he does just that. He needs to work a bit more with his dad, and/or with the D line coach.

If not Drake Jackson, and I hope he is him, we need to find someone to be the stalwart bookend pass-rusher/run stopper opposite Nick Bosa.

I noticed that as well. Looking a little sloppy at the end there, bud.

Yeah, but he'll be good if he's serious about his strength training and diet this offseason. This dude is only 21 years old! Give him a year or two in an NFL weight room, some Mexican supplements and watch the f**k out.
