If he sees Jackson can learn the system, work on accuracy, mental aspects (being able to audible, read defenses etc), I'm all for it.
Sean polished up Tony Romo pretty well . |

A Jackson + Kamara + Thomas core would be fun to watch. The RPO’s Payton would likely add into the fold would be deadly.

Can't wait for the draft. |
