I'm pretty convinced that if we don't take Jackson, our run defense is even worse this year than last, and I don't even know if that's actually possible to achieve.
It's not a flashy pick, and he won't ever have the stats because of the system and position he plays, but in hindsight, it was a solid pick. And the only LT that I would have drafted last season to be a LT was Oher or Monroe (I liked Oher better though), and if the Chiefs picked him at #3, you would have seen a meltdown of epic proportions.
