Put the tip cup out, you're killing me. Season's over, we can now wash AJ's uniform.

I'm not sure it can be quantified as 'false' - I just value the opinion of scouts more than that of Rickdaddy4188.

Over/under 25 holding penalties in Jones' first pro start?

Oh he is projected 1st round.


His cons are : short arms, not explosive , not an elite athlete.

With those cons I have no idea how he is a first rounder.

Mock drafts are a clusterfrick right now, you find guys who range from top 5 to 50th, we're just going to have to wait until the draft gets closer. Things will become a lot more clear post-combine.

I've seen Jones going as high as 12-15 and as low as 3rd round.

Is this supposed to be an indictment of Jones? Warmack is a fricking mauler and D.J. Fluker is one of the most physically intimidating men I have ever seen, even if he does tip off whether it's a running or pass play.

So you want a short armed , not explosive and not a great athlete going up against the strongest and most athletic big men on the planet? No doubt he has technique but technique only gets you so far. He was abused by a slow dt @ A&M whom no one would call a great dt.

Why is he not guarenteed 1st round? He is one of the most decorated lineman in history and he he has owned some top names in his career. I thought he would be definite 1st round.

I don't know, man, I don't work in a front office. Obviously, if someone is willing to draft him, they feel that these faults can be overcome.

Because he doesn't have elite strength or athleticism. Technique doesn't work against a 310lb. grown man who runs a 4.8 and can squat a house.

No doubt he is very cerebral player but I think he needs to get stronger. Without having long arms to keep to dlineman's hands off of him, he needs to be strong as shite. I think he can be a good player, I just wouldn't spend a 1st rd pick on him , but who am I.
