I feel like he's well above average vs. the run. If he can put together even a moderate pass rush (5 sacks) then he is a very productive defensive lineman.
He'll never be elite. Elite players produce in spite of scheme. Ndamakong Suh doesn't care what defense you're running. He sees faces, and they're getting raped.
But there is a great deal of real estate between elite and mediocre. I think of Jackson as above average vs. the run and below average vs. the pass. This is definitely his last year as a starter unless he puts the QB on his back a few times.
