ADOREE' JACKSON: Just trying to get respect from my peers -- some time had changed, things had changed and everything's different when you go place to place. So I'm just trying to prove myself and show these guys that I'm willing to learn and play for the team and do everything to the best of my ability.
Q. How do you feel about the prospect of playing a lot of man-to-man here? Pat Graham that's something you have to do in this league in order to be successful.
ADOREE' JACKSON: You look at the NFL, it's a passing league, so whether it's man, zone, match, whatever it may be, just have to play it, so respond to the challenge and things at happened and that's the best thing about playing ball every week you learn from the challenge and that's the best part about it.
Q. How much did you play man previously in Tennessee?
ADOREE' JACKSON: I thought we played man a lot, that's what I feel like, I don't know. Pretty much everything -- that's pretty much what it is. Man, quarterback scramble, sometimes zone, blitz.
Q. Did you relish that opportunity to say, okay, I'm going against this guy most of the game and my job, it's a one-on-one match up, you want to shut him down, obviously.
ADOREE' JACKSON: That's the best part of playing defense, I feel like in high school, going ask scoring a touchdown -- if I can get a decent stop, you just get the crowd put it away, and seems at home they are fired up. I always honor and cherish my defense.
Q. You knew some of the guys you were getting involved here with the Giants and you knew some of them personally and you knew the names. What did you learn about everybody on the field this week and what you guys can be as a secondary?
ADOREE' JACKSON: So crazy as it was, out there at tackle -- see how we gel, communication and competition part, and I think that's what I love everybody here on the team, everybody can seek advice from each other, whatever it may be. It's not like somebody withholds the information from you, that's what I appreciate most about coming to the secondary. It's fun and it's exciting to be around.
Q. What kind of potential do you think the secondary has?
ADOREE' JACKSON: It's only third day, so it's just us trying to build what we want to do and what we want to be and everybody wants to be great. Everybody wants to get out there and I think just hold each other accountable but that's the best thing we can do so we don't want to put expectations on what we want to do. We just want to go out there and compete and just show it for ourselves.
Q. After finishing the mini-camp and talking about percentage, how do you feel you are right now?
ADOREE' JACKSON: Alive, I feel great. To be honest it's a blessing to be out here playing ball with the guys and see your teammates and see smiles and to learn from each other. I feel like -- I talk to all day -- it's a blessing to be here and be able to play. So no matter what is going on, if it's hot, cold, whatever it may be, just happy.
Q. You guys seemed to get quite a bit out of those meetings down at Logan's place in Florida. Do you have any plans now between now and start of training camp for the defensive backs to get together or other players?
ADOREE' JACKSON: We haven't discussed it too much but I'm on the West Coast, flying from L.A. was too far for me so if I can get them to come out that way, we can hang out. That's for sure a thing we are going to talk about and discuss and see what everybody's up to.
