Grading the Tennessee Titans pick of Jha'Quan Jackson at No. 182 in 2024 NFL Draft
The Tennessee Titans selected Tulane wide receiver Jha'Quan Jackson with the No. 182 overall pick in the sixth round of the 2024 NFL Draft on Saturday.
Jackson has return experience, including a punt return touchdown in 2022, as well as a solid five-year college career at receiver. He ran a 4.42 40 at the NFL Scouting Combine in February.
Here's how the Tennessean grades the Titans' sixth-round pick:
Tennessee Titans No. 182 overall pick grade
The grade: C
Why? Jackson is an undersized (5-foot-9, 188 pounds) receiver who is a solid returner (punt return TD at Tulane) and has good speed albeit modest production in college. Can he play on the outside in the NFL? It takes a special talent to do so at his size. He'll need to fight to make the roster out of training camp as WR5 at best.
