Maybe Jackson can get by with instincts and zone in college, maybe he has skills to play the rest of the game.  I'm not going to pretend anyone on here is remotely qualified to make that determination.  Just like a QB that throws lots of int's early, but becomes great because he learned and grew his game rather than doing what he was always good at, Jackson could be the same.  The best learn by failure.  I've seen him run with enough guys to know he can do it.  I've seen him play the ball well enough to know he can do it.  This stuff isn't learned in a season.</blockquote>
