C'mon... Jackson hasn't played nobody yet.
He's got Clemson coming up
and Florida State later

Mayfield has already played Ohio State and played very very very well. We all know that the "pro style" offense switch doesn't mean too much these days. There's a learning curve, but if you pick the right guy, it won't matter. Good QBs are system proof.
The knock on Jackson is... will he be a one read and run QB his whole career? And can he put up his gaudy stats VS a real defense?

Also... he is not performing better through the air really....
Jackson: 64 comp % 9 YPA 5TD
Mayfield: 83 comp % 13 YPA 6TD (1.5 games)
Rudolph: 72 comp % 10 YPA 6TD

FWIW in the limited time I've watched Jackson this year, he's gone through his reads pretty well and even looked off a few defenders. I'm pretty high on him if he can continue to show he can be a pocket passer and not just run. He reminds me of Cam but a lot more accurate and obviously smaller. I'll take that.

Plus he's a guy we may not need to trade up to get if this season goes well.
