| @Schultz_Report Sources: The #Giants brought in CB Adoree' Jackson for a physical today and negotiations are underway on a deal to bring him back. A deal is not done, but the two sides are very interested. The Giants have been looking to add another viable corner. |
On the negative, boy did he make a lot of business decisions last year and he sure doesn't care about supporting in the run game.
If signed, all be guaranteed it's a one year deal and he can make money next year coming off a good season.
The league saw his play in 2023 and effort late in the season. It is his own fault, so sign on somewhere and prove yourself.

I'm very much hoping that by not landing a long term deal he learned a lesson

Not sure about knowing the system. Same DB coach, yes, but new DC is changing schemes and philosophy. Still agree he would be an upgrade.

Agree. On the positive, he knows the systems. On the negative, he sucks.

On the positives, he knows the system so will catch on fast and he's a better cover guy at the 2 than anyone on our roster right now.

Is it the same scheme as when he was in Tennessee?
Yeah, I guess id prefer to sign a superstar corner too, but as it is, got to find someone whos is a) available and b) shows some interest in signing with the team. Standards go out the window when there is a huge need. It is what it is.

Bowen took over for Pees the year after Adoree left, but was on staff when Adoree was there and runs a similar scheme to Pees, so Adoree has played in it and should have a short learning curve.

Jeez, where are the standards?

So no standards, great way to assemble a team. All part of the plan Im sure.
Sure doesn't seem like a Bowen player. There was a period where the eye test said he was willing to attack his run fits, but that more or less disappeared as many have pointed out.
IIRC He CAN tackle and was one of the few who showed up for the Philly playoff game. "Business Decisions" are not cool, but there may be more to that story that we don't know - like shoulder injury.
If motivated like a couple of years ago to try and get another payday - you get a 1CB
Big question to answer however
Bowen wasn't the DC in 2020, it was mainly Vrabel who handled that. Bowen did make the defensive calls.
Yup.
It does, however, reinforce the idea that Schoen is struggling with his drafts.
I'll give him the benefit of the doubt on his 1st 2 drafts as he didn't have his personnel department in place, but it bares watching.

an act of desperation, or panic.
Yup.
I mean, what else can it be?
On the negative, boy did he make a lot of business decisions last year and he sure doesn't care about supporting in the run game.
Agreed. I said a few weeks ago that I would be really surprised if they brought back Jackson, but their willingness to do so shows what they think of the current state of our CBs after Banks. Despite his performance last year, generating no interest from any other teams, and not being in camp, they still think Jackson is a better #2 CB than anyone else on the roster right now. More proof is that they signed two CBs to the PS. They obviously have little confidence in McCloud, Flott, or Hawkins to be the starting #2 CB, at least right now.
A one year deal with incentives might work, assuming Jackson is motivated by the lack of interest from other teams. And as someone said, he's still only 28.

sounds good
A motivated (28 year old Jackson) with something to prove and trying to put together 17 games of good tape to get paid is a pretty nice add at this point when the price is likely peanuts.
We should expect at least a low-end legitimate CB2 with upside for better.
That’s how he got hurt in 22. Shouldn’t have had him back there in the first place.
I like it and I don't think it's desperation at all. Well planned, actually. As far as Adoree making business decisions, perhaps he's just a better cover corner than tackler. Not ideal but a lot of good CBs are like that. That said, I wouldn't be surprised if he was dealing with something. He may not be a big hitter but he was certainly willing to stick his nose in there. Not sure what happened.
This is great. No, it's not a top tier CB but at his best, Jackson is pretty darn good and has a lot of incentive to be so again.
@DDuggan21
Didn’t see this coming. Did not hear very favorable reviews from inside the organization on Jackson’s play after last season

29 Sept. 18.
Maybe it was him and Wink not getting along, but I'd be amazed if he played hard ever again.

Should be noted that he played in the slot last year and clearly wasn't very good. He's better suited for the perimeter.

What makes you guys think he knows the system. He was here two years ago under a different DC
