Lawrence Jackson: Seahawks No-Name Player to Watch in 2009

Continuing the series of no-name Seahawks players that fans should watch out for takes us to 2008 first-round pick Lawrence Jackson. Jackson had an "OK" season in 2008, but not exactly the type of season he could have had. Now that Jackson is in his second season in the NFL, Seahawk fans and the coaching staff are going to need Jackson to make a name for himself. Jackson is one of many talented defensive ends on the Seahawks line, along with Patrick Kerney, Darryl Tapp, and Cory Redding. In training camp and during the preseason, Jackson is going to have to bust his tail off to get the starting right end job over Redding, Tapp, and others, because Kerney is going to be the starting left end. Now, Jackson doesn’t need to have a Pro Bowl season to make a name for himself, but having 30-40 tackles and 5-8 sacks would fit right in on the Seahawks' defensive line.   (link)
