The Miami Hurricanes defensive ends are led by Rising Junior Joe Jackson. Many NFL Draft prognosticators expect Jackson to leave after the 2018 season. He is a potential first-round draft pick.
Jackson has been outstanding in his first two seasons playing college football. He led the Miami Hurricanes in sacks as a Freshman and finished second last season. Jackson has 82 tackles, 21 tackles for loss and 14 sacks in his two seasons with Miami.
Miami lost 2017 sack leader Trent Harris and Chad Thomas, who was a third-round draft pick of the Cleveland Browns.
