PLAYER ANALYSIS
Well-built kicker who has the leg strength to handle kickoff duties and should have the power to muscle up on tries of 50-plus. While he was extremely accurate from 40-plus in 2019, that distance had been a major issue for him in previous years. His drive kicks come out without as much lift and his truncated follow-through might need some work in order to create more consistent ball flight. The 2019 results were encouraging, but he still has much to prove.

Round 7 • Pick 29
PLAYER ANALYSIS
Jackson has decent size and tested well with his speed and explosiveness at the Marshall pro day. However, inconsistencies in technique and footwork could get him bogged down in his transitions on the NFL level. If he can get to a point where he trusts his technique, he has the timing and toughness to challenge and deny the catch on the next level. He has a nose for the football and looks for opportunities to shadow intermediate route breaks on the vertical plane. His mauling nature ended with a load of pass interference calls and that number will explode on the pro level if he doesn't get things fixed.

PLAYER ANALYSIS
Tall, thin and long-limbed, Cobb will be in consideration as a 4-3 weakside linebacker despite playing inside in 2019. He plays with adequate patience and feel for blocking schemes when diagnosing, but has trouble punching and playing around blocks. His lack of pop into contact and finishing strength as a tackler could cause problems against bigger runners and he lacks prototypical chase speed outside. Despite the inconsistency of traits for the position, the testing and history of production should get him into a camp.
