I don't think so. This guy is like Marcus Peters last year. He fell a little bit and has an extremely high ceiling.
He'll be a rotational player but keep in mind, Jaye Howard only signed a 2 year deal and will be 29 when that contract expires. Jones is only 21. His comp is Muhammed Wilkerson. |

I don't know anything about him, but that tape of him vs. LSU is kind of concerning. He loafs A LOT. He showed a couple moments of dominance, but other than that it was kind of ugly.

I've never watched the kid play a down, but there does seem to be something to the raw descriptions, those clips highlighting his weaknesses werent so hot Maybe its just the position that isnt slaying me, wanted some instant impact sizzle at CB or an OLB prospect, we'll see... I'm willing to give Dorsey a mulligan here |

It could be a chicken or the egg argument, but does a CB benefit more from DL play, or does a DL benefit from CB play? I tend to believe the former.

Remember when Baltimore was amazing at defense yet the kept drafting defense every year?
They knew what their identity was, and built upon it. |

In the new NFL with no huddle you have to have versatile DL who can play multiple techniques. Especially at NT... 1-dimensional NTs are liabilities. These guys don't grow on trees. And with Devito retiring, we don't have good enough depth. Now you can keep Poe fresh and give Howard more flexibility to move around. He doesn't have to start to make a huge impact. |

With Devito gone, Poe's ability to play the 5-tech, Bailey at DE, and Howard's versatility, I feel our DL rotation will be filthy by adding Jones.
