Would have been nice to have him for another year

[Eric the Red]

"Brandon Jackson, who announced last month he was skipping his final season at Nebraska to enter the draft, is ranked by Kiper as the third-best running back available, behind Oklahoma’s Adrian Peterson and California’s Marshawn Lynch."

 

[huskernumerouno]

Good for him. Good luck Bjax

 

[BIGREDIOWAN]

I hope he does well and represents Nebraska in the pros.... :thumbs

 

[hack]

would have been nice but he's the one who decided that he wanted to leave.

no harm, no foul. best of luck to the bjax.

 

[Drowning_in_the_Sea_of_Red]

Third best? Wow.....good luck to him. Make us proud!

 

[admo]

Oh hell yah. BJAX runs hard. Hope he does well at the combines too.

 

[StuckinChicago]

I think Lucky is just as good, and will be drafted just as high if not higher when he leaves, so at least our cupboard isnt bear....

 

[cmb23]

Quite a difference....here's where nflscouts.com (on msn.com) has him....

They also have ZT as the 14th QB, 272 overall - going in the 7th or a Free Agent.

this is Pre-combine evaluation. I am willing to bet he moves up after that. I was imagining him around 3/4 rounds, that would mean he is around #8 to go. I think he can make it there. We will see how it all plays out.

 

[Drowning_in_the_Sea_of_Red]

No way is Kenneth Darby from Alabama that much better than BJax. But then again.....maybe I'm just biased....

 

[huskernumerouno]

No I think you are right on on that one. BJAX will be a good one.

 

[BIGREDIOWAN]

I think he will be one of those surprise running backs in the NFL that no one knows about and no one sees coming

 

[Drowning_in_the_Sea_of_Red]

I'll go ahead and add Darius Walker from Notre Dame to the list of backs that are not better than Bjax

 

[indianahusker]

BJax will be a good NFL RB because:

1) He can block.

2) He can catch.

3) He can run with power and speed.

I'd love to see the Broncos get ahold of him...

 

[huskerdude171]

He probably should have waited another year to enter the pros.
