We got a great, legitimate high first round prospect who isn't suited to the scheme we changed to. We got a safety that everyone in the world loved at the time, and picking a safety that high was not a safety pick.
Jackson is Jackson. You can say a million bad things about that pick, but not that it was a safety play. That was the biggest reach in modern draft history. The opposite of safe.
The safety pick would have been at those positions of safety in the top of the draft - a Monroe or Raji or Orakpo or someone like that... oh wait, those would have been excellent selections.
