Landon Jackson DE from Arkansas. Listed at 6’7 280 he has an impressive get off and surprisingly has the flexibility to turn the corner and get to the QB. Obviously with his height he has more than ideal arm length to fight off blockers and isn’t light in the pants to get pushed around easily.

He reminds me of a heavier Maxx Crosby.

24 TFL and 13 sacks the past 2 years.

I think stiffer Maxx Crosby would be more accurate.A.J. Epenesa (who is a fine player) is probably a better comp for him.

I like him. I think he's an Anchor (strongside end) who can start for NFL teams.

Not quite as flexible as Crosby sure, but I wouldn’t call Jackson a stiff player. He can get around the edge.
Reminds me of Crosby was more in play style, I probably wouldn’t project Jackson to be a 12+ sack a year guy. But 8-10 sacks with strong play vs the run is a very valuable player. If we’re going with Bills comps Rousseau might be a lot closer.

He’s intriguing to me…has some good tape against high level SEC OTs just curious about what kind of athlete he is.

I see a lot more Emmanuel Ogbah in the NFL.

I do see the comparing to Crosby coming out of college. Not sure Jackson has that elite career Crosby does.
