With the NFL Draft fast approaching, I’m breaking down potential Detroit Lions draft prospects. Landon Jackson has the prototypical look of a Lions defensive end, carries the leadership pedigree as a two-time Arkansas captain, and, based on film study, could be a strong complementary piece opposite Aidan Hutchinson. Below are my observations on Jackson’s game, including positive traits, deficient traits, and other observations from his tape.
