Tanard Jackson Should Have Been Picked Higher

Mike Mayock took a look at rookie production through the first eight games of the season and ranked who the top ten picks should have been. Obviously Adrian Peterson was going to be number one and you knew Patrick Willis was going to be in there somewhere (he was number 2.) But the biggest surprise to everyone besides Buccaneer fans was that Tanard Jackson was listed as number ten. Here's the list, with the player's actual draft position in parenthesis:

  1. Adrian Peterson (7)
  2. Patrick Willis (11)
  3. Joe Thomas (3)
  4. LaRon Landry (6)
  5. Amobi Okoye (10)
  6. Tony Ugoh (42)
  7. Aaron Ross (20)
  8. Ben Grubbs (29)
  9. Dwayne Bowe (23)
  10. Tanard Jackson (106)

The implication here is that the Bucs got the steal of the draft. I'm sure Dallas Clark and his neck would agree. Sadly, Gaines Adams is nowhere to be found.

Wait, something good happened during the Colts game?
