Round 6: Nebraska CB Lamar Jackson

The Lamar Jackson everyone is talking about (just kidding). Even if Jaylon Johnson is a starter and Mike Hughes or Holton Hill are at the other corners out wide, the Vikings need a nickel corner. Maybe that’s Hill or Hughes, depending on who claims the starting position, but maybe it’s not. Jackson can compete for that spot and possibly win it, due to his large frame and physicality.
