@LombardiHimselfLess than a year ago, our @dpbrugler projected 49ers DE Drake Jackson to be picked #7 overall (!!) in 2022. Jackson slid to #61 after a disappointing season during which he played light (240s) for a USC team that fired its coaching staff. Jackson was up to 273 at his pro day

@LombardiHimselfThis is Drake Jackson. The 49ers just drafted a defensive lineman who can do this

@nwagonerOne thing to note for those asking about the #49ers' long list of edge rushers (or is it supposed to be EDGE? My bad): Dee Ford, Samson Ebukam, Jordan Willis, Kerry Hyder, Kemoko Turay, Charles Omenihu are all unrestricted free agents after the '22 season.

@LombardiHimselfThe 49ers are philosophically rooted in their defensive line, especially the edge-rushing positions. Thats delivered some solid results for them and no one expected the stockpiling to stop now. Picking Drake Jackson helps give the 49ers the D-line traffic jam that they want

@nwagoner#49ers have always been clear on how they value DL, especially pass rushers. They've used their first pick on a DL in six of past eight years and in four of the past six year since HC Kyle Shanahan and GM John Lynch took over in 2017.

@LombardiHimselfPercentile illustrator for new 49ers DE Drake Jackson. Strong explosiveness metrics. Hand size/arm length unusual in that shorter frame. In fact, Kocurek likely coveted Jacksons exceptionally long arms at 6-2 he can develop a leverage player who can also keep OTs at distance

@nwagoner#49ers select USC DE Drake Jackson. The Niners' love of pass rushers won't die under this regime. Jackson known for his athleticism and speed, will need to add some strength and technique but coming to the right place for it given DL coach Kris Kocurek's track record.

@LombardiHimself49ers draftee Drake Jackson had 12.5 sacks at USC. A common complaint of Trojan fans was that he dropped back into pass coverage too often. That wont be an issue with the 49ers, who are going to want an ultra-athletic edge rusher roaring off the line and toward QBs
