Lamar is amazing; For college. NFL, where has his style ever worked out? Start running around among superior athletes and they are going to send a clear message just like they always do. It will not be tolerated.

Now that we have a larger sample size we’ve seen Cam Newton, Russell Wilson, and Colin Kaepernick in recent Super Bowls. I don’t believe Jackson has any less issues with accuracy than a Newton or Kaepernick, and if you follow his college career he improved as a passer every year. He progressed through his reads, looked to pass first, and could fit it into some tight windows. NFL offenses are going to change the more and more they continue to let this style of QB in the league. At worse he’s Tyrod Taylor, and Taylor led that sorry Bills team to the playoffs. Of course, this is all just my own analysis.

I wanted Jackson but I'm with you on this. Brees might still be playing when Jacksons rookie contract is up.
