He will be guarding the number 2 wide outs in minkiah on his side he’ll be good
I like the non sugar coated breakdowns. He's better than what we had last season. Are you going to take a vacation before the draft lol
Gotta show both sides. No vacation till after the draft is over. Then we’ll do recaps and a week long break or so after that
What most people don’t realize about Donte is how often in Carolina he was covering the number 1 receiver. As a number 2 cornerback he complements JPJ so well. He’s really fast and has legitimate ball hawking ability and excels at jumping routes with great acceleration and recognition. He’s much better than Levi due to Levi’s physical limitations due to having no long speed and poor acceleration despite Levi’s high IQ.
Another great breakdown DB
Appreciate that!
Yea
Get him on the Jug Machine ASAP.
Love the "Good, Bad, and UGLY" approach! Keep up the great work!
Steelers_DB, nice work. A lot of steelers youtube channels lose objetivity and credibility.... deke, all steelers talk, and others are great but they have significant flaws in their analysis. You're a lot closer to Alex Kozora over at steelers depot. I've only been aware of you for the last year or so, but I am a fan of your work. :)
Appreciate the feedback. I’m passionate about what I do so I’m glad you enjoy the content.
better than Alex.... not sounding like he's talking through a kazoo doesnt hurt either
Good break down. Love the film rooms, DB.
Appreciate you!
Carolina fan here. I'm so glad y'all took him whew. Thank you
Awesome breakdown.
Thanks for watching
Great job as always, Derrick
Thanks!
I highly appreciate your work in reviewing and breaking down all this video. I see Jackson as a solid #2 that Minkah can help and let JPJ do what Uncle Ike did on the other side. Now we need a slot guy or are we going to play 3 safeties?
Thank you for watching!
Fits perfectly in our system , a lil undersized for our liking of a Pittsburgh corner type but this dude is a playmaker! I see why they went and traded for him because we lacked speed. His zone coverage is gonna be his go to. If we had him at slot he would probably have the best season of his career also I wanna see how he tackles because he would be perfect in that Mike Hilton role especially running a 4.3👀
Derrick is the absolute best in the business! He will be on an NFL staff sooner than later!
Great job DB! Great breakdown and analysis. I definitely think Donte is a upgrade from what we had last year at the number 2 I really anxious and excited about how he dies in training camp and preseason. Congratulations on reaching 6K. AMAZING accomplishment in such a short time. HERE WE GO!!
Great stuff like always man. This team is so much different already and we’re not even to the draft yet lol. All these pieces put together on defense I honestly believe we can be a top 3 no lie
Appreciate you man. Hoping he kills it this year in a new environment.
Loved your material on that other show...and love it now. Keep it up man!
Another great film breakdown! You do a great job. Keep bringing it!
Thanks for watching !
Great job derrick
Thanks!
i think it was a good trade for both sides. great analysis man!
Fantastic content and analysis DB!
Thank you
Nice vid bro. Appreciate the hard work.
We weren't going to pay Diontae after his contract is up and also pay George 25mil, so the Steelers had to pick one. They traded Diontae while he held good value and got a solid player, good work
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Congrats on the 6k, my boy!
Yessssssirrr we on the way my guy
Derrick at it again thank you
Thanks for watching
Great breakdown. Hope you do a Justin Fields one too
I agree top #3 Def like him over PP LW the fact that he is not afraid to hit some one is a big +. We'll see how the tackles fall vs corners in the draft but an Arnold or Wiggins would be nice.
Arnold would be sick
Peterson was always an elite cover man. So much so that we never paid much attention to his tackling or his small size during his Arizona days. Now that he’s lost a step, the deficiencies become apparent. Wallace has past injuries, lacked the physicality of JPJ and the field IQ that PP had. Hopefully Jackson fills the loss of those guys. Be even better if he’s as good a CB as Diontae Johnson was a WR. I’m still not convinced this was a good trade (letting go of the top performing receiver and best route runner on the team)
He’s savvy for sure, definitely gonna show Joey some things!
Great work db😎
Thank you
You the man
That’s love 💛 back at yiu
Looks like big play susceptibility could still be an issue when compared to Levi, but we did get faster. That small upgrade is a win in my book. I like the fight he brings as well. Great stuff, DB!
Thanks for watching
I've been saying this trade is genius we have them our worst reciever for their best corner this is an A trade, we hit the dB room with a major boost abs we were already good plus we haven't even drafted yet, this is AMAZING! Steelers are deboing everybody, if we get a great wideout without giving up a first we are golden!
Wow he is very fluent especially in off coverage
Another great filmroom. much appreciated brother. i definitely feel better bout the pickup and i agree more speed is nice.
hopefully Trice works out.
i really believe they go after Shon Stephens if he makes it to their 98 pick. where you think hes projected?
Appreciate the feedback man. I think they’ll take a CB in the first two days for sure
My favorite thing is that a lot of these reps are vs blaaaaazers
Positive #1. He’s not Levi Wallace. I’m convinced even I could have gone out there and given the Steelers what Wallace has the past 2 years.
I need to get you on The New Standard
💯
He seems better equipped to be a slot guy. He is less likely to get bullied and can be our version of a more athletic mike hilton with slightly worse tackling/pursuit.
Levi Wallace is not a 'starting' level CB in my opinion. So Jackson will be an improvement.
The missed tackles scare the s**t out of me though, so I'd give him safety support more often than not.
Basically we still need to be hunting for another CB in the draft. This dude is a marginal (emphasis on marginal) upgrade to Levi Wallace. Get another one in the draft, and also lets hope Cory Trice comes back from injury and produces well in OTAs for a roster spot.
Marginal ?We will definitely get a corner in the draft tho..He's way better than anything we had in that spot last year
@@jayjames4629I wouldn't have any complaints if this was a free agent signing. But letting Diontae Johnson go for him isn't the greatest deal. We let a A receiver walk for a B cornerback.
He’s solid.
@@JamesHardy-yi1phI think we saw Diontae's value for us,but the league didn't think he was as valuable..Jerry Jeudy went for a similar deal except a player wasnt traded
I'm just hoping for a one of those good receivers in the draft
@@Steelers_DBHe is solid, just not elite. I think at this juncture though he has to enter OTAs and training camp as the starter right? His film and resume suggests he's the second best corner on our roster now. Don't know if that's a good thing or bad thing yet. Not sure how deep the corner class this year is in the draft, but I hope there's some good day 2 guys. No matter what, I think we need to draft a center day 1.
Were the panthers using him as there number 1 corner?
Ok definitely was looking forward to this breakdown like you say the Steelers can use his speed but honestly my main concern is the center position can you do A piece on our best options there and is it looking more like we will have to open the season starting A rookie at that position?
Thanks. And yeah he’s solid and can start if necessary. I’d imagine he does. Still think they should and will draft a corner somewhat early.
I think this is def an upgrade for Levi and Pat, but i think he's a stop gap in case we draft OL with our 1st 2 picks. Maybe slot corner Sainristil will fall to our 3rd pick. I would rather spend $ in FA for at least a center so we can get another high pick corner.
More speed for sure
Im fine with him....but shoulda traded Daj for a pick and.signed fuller?
He might give up some big plays once in awhile but he looks a lot more sound than Levi Wallace 😂😂Do you think he can lock down the CB2 position or do you think it gets filled in the draft? Or a dark horse like Darius Rush comes and takes it? Great video as always, getting us a lil excited at first and then tempering that excitement with his bad reps 🤣🤣🤣
Gotta show the whole picture. We’ll see. Gotta couple lotto tickets in Rush/Trice. But I think we see a corner drafted on first two days.
I was initially excited about acquiring Donte Jackson but after peeling back the onion my feelings have changed. His pro football focus score is not that good and is barely higher than Levi Wallace and Patrick Peterson which isn't saying much. He also has lost alot of his speed which was his best attribute. I just feel when it comes to the corner position the Steelers tend to use a plug the hole mentality as opposed to a fix the hole mentality. With that said Im not too sure how effective this bandaid solution will be. We shall see. I just feel there were much better options out there but oh well it is what is.
I dislike that the value for DJ returned seems to just be a a potentially capable starter in Jackson. Until I see it play out, im concerned we just opened a whole and will still have one.
I feel it. It’ll depend what they do with the additional cap space
@@Steelers_DB that was actually my first thought. I have to see what we do with the cap before. I thought we would be able to create more cap than 4m but I'm far from an expert on that stuff
I had heard that when this dude came out in the draft, he was a slot corner. Do you think he fits better in the slot?
he never played in the inside,people always assumed he should be there because of his size
Hasn’t played much there
Yeah bro I kinda want him to play in the slot. It seems like it will match his skill set better due to his measurables. We can pick up a corner and have them compete for the other outside spot with cory trice/darius rush.
@@jaylenhill2176 who knows, maybe it happens. Gonna have to clean up the press tech in order to do it.
I mean, i don't think anyone knows what the plan is for him. Is this our #2? Or is this like..James Pierre's replacement? I think the trade was more about DJ than Donte.
Do you think his game is better than Levi Wallace?
👍🏼👍🏼
👍🏻
So a good but not great corner. Who is suseptible to the big play and has some talking issues.
Ya he’s solid
he is so athletic, but even his reps where he makes plays i’m noticing a lot of bad technique.
turning his back to the QB in zone as a cloud corner, hopping instead of stepping in press, etc. He’s a freak athlete so I imagine this has never caused any real problems for him, but i’m worried that when he loses a step with age these habits might catch up.
So why did we trade for this guy?
who were we gonna trade for ?How good do yall think Diontae actually was ?
Needed a vet to hold it down outside. Losing Diontae hurts but gotta see what they do with the additional cap space
@jayjames4629 There were reports that we could have gotten Snead from KC but they didn't want to give PM15 Dionte
Whatever he does, it's still gonna be better than Levi Wallace
Could not have said it better
Good luck he will either be hurt or be out of position constantly enjoy !! Vastly overpaid and smaller CB and that cannot cover anymore. Various injuries have taken there toll.
Keep him away from the e likes of Amari cooper and tee Higgins lol
I'm interested to hear your expectations for Donte Jackson next season. Let me know.
this feels like a stop gap move that will allow Khan to take or pass a CB depending on how the board falls... seems like he is a high end cb3 or low end cb2.. does that sound about right?
I expect myself to think alot about the fact that 2mil extra could have gotten us Kendall Fuller
Just be a solid CB2 like Steven Nelson was. I am concerned much less about Interceptions and splash than I am getting off the field on those 3rd and longs which the Steelers have been giving up on the regular since Joe Haden left. Those plays are backbreakers on a tired defense that has already been on the field for too long because the Offense cant sustain drives.
I think that he can be a 4 INT and 12 PBU kinda guy. In situations where the opposing team has a fast star WR (1 or 2), He will have Minkah behind him making plays.. which could force QBs into making more mistakes.. I still think we could get a CB in round 1, especially if one of the 2 Bama Corners are available
Didn’t he tear his Achilles
