But I agree that Jackson has a lot of upside. I think we're going to be pleasantly surprised by our two new DTs. I can't wait to see them in action.
Yes, we will see. I do like Sweat as a player, but I liked Byron Murphy WAY more and think he made Sweat look better at times.
Understand really liking JPJ as well, but Graham Barton was my guy if we went IOL this year as he was healthy.
Cannot wait myself to see these guys. The Mutant AKA Jenkins wasn't used a ton at Michigan as it was a deep rotation, but he
can either bulk up or trim down to play wherever, but Jenkins was like the 2nd best run stopping DT in this Draft which is wild.
Jackson always impressed me and had him as our NT to grab especially after Sweat's DWI which was so insanely stupid.

Only time will tell, but by all accounts the bengals liked him enough that the fit/need warranted the pick. That’s really all that matters.
Truth.
