Scouting Report: Strengths
  • Can get up on the line of scrimmage and deliver a solid punch early in routes, then use that quickness to shadow, or back off and close quickly when the ball comes out
  • Trusts his eyes with very good awareness. Has very good reaction skills to break quickly on the ball.
  • Fits best in a zone system at the next level due to size and ability to close to the ball.
  • Flashes good ball skills. Jones has the fluidity and change-of-direction ability to mirror quicker receivers underneath.
  • Tracks the ball well and has the natural ball skills for forcing turnovers.
  • Extremely aggressive to come up and put his body in traffic to make tackles.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
  • Fails to maintain inside technique in man coverage. Not a press corner.
  • Has to fight for every inch on the field and though willing, will be less-equipped to win on a down-to-down basis in the NFL.
  • Gave up far too many big plays in college, especially concerning since Jones has recovery speed to make up for missteps.

*Percentile Ranking in Player's Position Group (NFL Combine Historical Data): This percentile reflects how a player's specific statistics rank in comparison to historical performances at the NFL Combine, specifically within their position group. A higher percentile indicates a better performance. For instance, being in the 90th percentile for a particular stat means the player outperformed 90% of their peers in that category.

*Similarity Percentage: This percentage is calculated based on a comprehensive analysis of various factors, including height, weight, 40-yard dash times, on-field performance statistics, and overall player rating. The analysis is conducted against our database of draft prospects from 2021 to 2023. This similarity score helps in evaluating how closely a current prospect aligns with past prospects. It is important to note, however, that this score reflects similarities based on college production and attributes, and does not account for eventual success or performance in the NFL.
