 what is going on welcome to Melbourne and welcome to the top 30 of the 2019 NFL's best players it's Eddie Jackson he's a free safety which means he's running around he's scanning the field he's probably on his own in the backfield looking for whatever's going to happen reacting to what the player what what play happens what plays called what audible's called you know whether the running back gets it whether it's passing play he's always reacting as a free safety he's kind of like a fallback in the game of rugby and I played full back it's not an easy position you usually the last line of defense but in rugby see you play offense and defense so that's only defense once the team gets the ball back as a fallback you play pretty much like a running back and that's why I love it so anyway so let's get into it guys Eddie Jackson this we need to talk to somebody I like that guy and you know he's showing up and he can play this league and be one of the best you watch film on him he's always around the ball festival guy comes in that relates to work on the running backs tight ends Randall car TFL is a tackle for loss is that right well that receiver was never going to get the ball he's only jogging oh no he tripped he tripped otherwise he probably would have been about two three more yards down the field oh get that he's got some guts all right and this fully reminds me of being like out in the back line maybe a center or a wing one of the last two in the line of of defense in a rugby team okay the attacking team is coming towards you they're passing the ball throughout the team maybe left to right or right to left and as they're passing it and coming towards you at pace you have an opportunity to either try and jump forward and try and catch one of those passes in the middle of it with the risk of obviously missing it and then you know the defense has one less player to use and the offense will have a mismatch but it's a risk that you're willing to take and if you've got good awareness you sometimes get that interception and then you're gone right Eddie Jackson would be fantastic at that all safeties would be fantastic at that making that last-minute decision whether to go for the ball or stay in the line but rugby is very very unique in the fact that it's not offense and it's not defense it's everything you do everything on the field until now you know Eddie Jackson started stripping him as soon as he came into contact with the offensive players see that's beautiful that is beautiful a pick six to the house on the burst is just stunning to watch score after his first two seasons who amazing block yeah what a run see now it has literally taken me like nearly a year of watching the sport for me to have my first thought when someone gets the ball and starts running down the field of okay where's the blockers before as a rugby player you don't use blockers right so I'm just thinking beat this man beat this man beat this man and I'm not really looking at my other players to use them it's taking me this long you know what I mean this long it's been a very interesting journey guys we're not finished all right I do just want to see his stats I want to see how many touchdowns he got Eddie Jackson American footballer ah okay I was gonna say he wasn't born in 1980 was it means he's nearly 40 no he was born in 1993 no 1992 six foot 200 pounds 202 pounds he went in the fourth round of 2017 draft really he made the Pro Bowl and the first team all pro last year in his second season and he doesn't have any measureables but in his first season he played 16 games 70 combined tackles 53 of which was solo he had two interceptions for 82 yards at an average of 41 yards per carry and one touchdown last year 14 games 51 combined tackles with 41 being solo he had one sack he had 15 past deflections six interceptions for 81 yards for an average of 13.5 yards per carry two touchdowns and two forced fumbles and one fumble recovery fuck it up I gotta get these I gotta get these letters down man gotta get these letters down four-star cornerback Eddie Jackson commits to Alabama when was this written guys let's go back in history back to 2014 Alabama picked up its 22nd commitment of the 2013 recruiting class on Wednesday morning as Fort Lauderdale's defensive back Eddie Jackson announced his commitment to the Crimson Tide through his high school football teams official Twitter account Jackson who was rated a four-star prospect by ESPN in 24 seven sports chose the tide over LSU it's great going back in history isn't it guys amazing alright next on the list George Kittle tight end for the 49ers and after that we've got Fletcher Cox and after that we've got Jalen Ramsey fantastic see you soon guys if you've enjoyed this video hit the like button if you want to subscribe please do I'm just having fun at this point I hope you guys are too I will see you shortly peace out
