played with miami the last 2 years maybe a referal from saban?

Maybe, maybe not. He's from the same school and draft class (Arkansas - '04) as Cedric Cobbs (whom we drafted). I'm sure we scouted all of the Razorback's prospects -- maybe we liked what we saw in Jackson way back then. In addition, we've probably seen him with the Phins for a few games. As far as I know, BB never shreds his notes on anyone.

Per Reiss:

Anyone know anything about him?

Sounds like TCF, Training Camp Fodder. In a battle with Baker and some yet to be named steet FA for the 57th roster spot.

 

[lutontown_fc]

TC fodder.

Why haven't we signed Briggs yet?

Is this FO cheap or what?

LMFAO...Stupid fish fan

 

[TruthSeeker]

Maybe the Pats are trying to corner the market in Jackson's with ACL probleems (Chad & Eddie).

 

[RayClay]

Just another name for the DB rolodex.

If he turns out to be a late bloomer, we'll have a book on him.

 

[muaythaipatriot]

LMFAO...Stupid fish fan

I see morons roll in packs. I feel bad for the good posters here. You guys give them such a bad name.

 

[Urgent]

Hell, if it's only a partical tear, he'll be as good as new by training camp, right?:rocker:

He can cover Jackson.

 

[JoeSixPat]

Don't know much about him, but I'm on the lookout for the next Hank Poteat.

Maybe he's him.

 

[captain stone]

Maybe he's him.

Possibly, but probably not.

Remember, Hank the Man was a well-regarded CB from the 2000 draft. Ourlads, e.g., ranked him #8 amoung CBs that year. He was drafted in the middle of the 3rd round, #77 overall, by the Steelers, immediately behind JR Redmond.

I'm glad that the FO has signed a DB with size; we also need quality, however, as well as quantity.

I defer to your extensive personal knowlege on the topic

According to Reiss,he's reportedly considered a "strong locker room presence",fwiw.


Patriots add depth with cornerback/special teamer
March 20, 2007

In a move that adds depth to the secondary and special teams, the Patriots signed cornerback Eddie Jackson yesterday. Terms were not announced.

The 26-year-old Jackson, who will enter his fourth NFL season in 2007, has played for Carolina (2004) and Miami (2005-06). His primary contributions have come on special teams, where he has totaled 26 tackles in 39 games. The 6-foot, 200-pound Jackson has also started three games at cornerback but has mostly served as an extra defensive back.

Jackson is recovering from a torn ACL that he suffered Dec. 25 against the Jets. He was placed on injured reserve the next day.

A restricted free agent, Jackson was not tendered a contract by the Dolphins.

Considered a strong locker room presence, he entered the league as a free agent in 2004 out of Arkansas, where he also played safety.

Jackson appeared in 10 games for the Panthers as a rookie and was picked up on waivers by the Dolphins Sept. 4, 2005. He is the third Dolphins player acquired by the Patriots this offseason, joining receiver Wes Welker and running back Sammy Morris.

WOW!!! 6 pages on Eddie bleeping Jackson, who would have thunk. Patriots fever is at an all time high. He's trying out for special teams and the last spot on the DB roster.

nobody can tell me that nick Sabin isn't advising BB on his former miami players .

I guess this means we'll be drafting some Alabama players this year as well?

maybe not this year but i wouldn't be surprised to see some bama players in the next couple of years .

It appears Nick has BB's ear which,if true,would be very cool indeed.
