The dichotomy of Jones’ skill set should make him one of the more polarizing evaluations in the 2019 NFL Draft class. On one hand he’s a special athlete with rare movement skills and a quickly-developing repertoire of rush moves, but on the other hand he struggles mightily as a run defender, from recognizing blocks to getting off of them to holding the point of attack.
Jones may need to put on some weight to play inside in the NFL, which could lead to some discussion on whether he should shed a few pounds and play on the edge, where he will see less double teams and have an easier time staying clean. I’m not sure I see that position switch in the cards for Jones just yet, but if he ends up at the Senior Bowl (December graduate), hopefully we will see him play a couple different positions to get a feel for where he might fit best in the NFL. If it is on the interior as expected, Jones’ value will be determined by which teams are willing to live with his deficiencies as a run defender in favor of what he can become on long/late downs.
