There’s no telling where this Khalil Mack situation will go. All that can be said is the Oakland Raiders can hold him hostage for the time being but it doesn’t seem like the star pass rusher is going to budge on his contract demands. This could force the team to trade him at some point, which would immediately open up a hole at defensive end. That’s why they go after Joe Jackson here. The Miami product began to flash in 2017, showcasing his quickness and length that allowed him to beat tackles with enough regularity that quarterbacks couldn’t ignore him. He’s set for a huge season in 2018 and oozes potential.
