William Jackson III wants to be traded and Washington seems poised to honor his request. These 3 teams should be interested in trading for the CB. HTTC
and the Green Bay Packers in the NFC North. The 1-4 Detroit Lions also average 260.4 passing yards per game. Minnesota’s secondary will continue being tested down the stretch.
Jackson also possesses several connections to Minnesota’s defensive coaching staff. Vikings senior defensive assistant Paul Guenther served as Jackson’s defensive coordinator in Cincinnati during his first two seasons in the league. Furthermore, Vikings defensive backs coach Daronte Jones worked in the same role alongside Jackson in Cincinnati for two additional seasons . The Vikings could use another cornerback and their defensive staff is awfully familiar with what Jackson brings to the table.
Jackson is a press-man coverage cornerback that’s been miscast in Jack Del Rio’s zone-heavy approach. Jacksonprefers to be traded to a team that best fits his man-coverage tendencies. The Steelers have played man coverage on a league-leading 68 opponent dropbacks this season. Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin has a defensive backs coach background and has routinely relied on his ability to coach up young, underrated cornerbacks. The Steelers haven’t invested enough into their cornerback room as a result. The method must be altered with such dwindling results.The Cardinals haven’t fared much better than the Vikings or Steelers. Vance Joseph’s defense is allowing 248.2 yards through the air per contest.
The 2-3 Cardinals are contending in the unpredictable NFC West. They’re tied with the Los Angeles Rams and Seattle Seahawks, and the San Francisco 49ers have a one-game lead in the division.
