I also hope we sign him. Jackson is a ballhawk and young......
It's good to see that they did not release him due to an actual failure in physical or drug test. I hope we sign Jackson. His past problems don't concern me that much -- we just factor all of that in when working out an agreement. If he had to choose between weed or cash I bet he would choose the cash but if not, we protect ourselves just in case.

What about RB? Burn our 3rd rounder on another RB? What about WR? Burn it on another wideout?
Two places this pick can go. Highest rated T, or highest rated S.
Period.
If a 2nd round value RB or WR is there at our 3rd round at our third round pick, absolutely.
Our RB rotation is ok, borderline decent but Hightower has been a change of pace back his whole career.. Shanny has called Helu and Royster change of pace backs as well. None of them has the look of a feature back. Helu has tantalizing skills, but I question his vision. I think he misses too many holes to be a feature guy. If there is a guy who we think can be THE guy (Doug Martin, Lamar Miller) of course pick him.
Same with our WR rotation. I'm of the belief that our WR group in 2013 will only have Hankerson and Paul (maybe Robinson if he shows something in camp) from the 2011 group so there's at least one more player that needs to be brought in. If a Brian Quick, Rueben Randle, Mohamad Sanu is sitting there, run-don't walk-that pick to the podium.
I agree that tackle and safety are greater needs but I'm not a subscriber to drafting for need in the 3rd round. If the #7 tackle or #5 safety is on the board but the #2 RB or #4 WR is there, you take the best player available that's not redundant at a position of depth.

All good points. Should our 3rd rounder be BPA at safety/OL or just BPA period?
It should be an ILB. The skins have acquired about 4 FA dbs in the last month, and the OL is ok (not great, but ok).

well, i don't think anything in FA would stop us from drafting DBs. we've got old injured suspended players, so... yeah.

Looking forward to having Jenkins back. I didn't know he was 325, at that size he might be pushing Cofield for the NT job.
