June Jones jumps on the Mac Jones train

Once people watch film they are seeing what others have said. Jones won't go number 1 but after starting just 1 year in college his command of the position is far beyond what you would expect. His ceiling is higher than folks give him credit.

The guy threw to wide as open guys, with all the time in the world.  Never shows any escapable or ways to elude pressure.

he also didn’t have zip to throw through tight windows.

 

i get people say, look he has a cannon, he can throw it 50 yards etc etc.  so could Will Grier.  But to have the constant zip and pro arm, he doesn’t have.

him being projected in the top 20 is insane 

 

 

literally, the clip from the senior owl everyone is rerunning when talking about how good he is.  It’s a 15 yard  dump off where the WRs cleared out where no one was within 15 yards from the pass catcher and Mac simply led him.  I could do that.

Come on man he has plenty of zip on the midrange.  Someone posted a breakdown earlier today and it showed.  The problem is his deep ball

Can you hack a National Championship winning season together?

If I had 4 of the top 5 WRs to come out of the draft in 2 years, the top OL,RB and Defense, sure

 

wins don’t mean crap for scouting a QB

 

see Ken Dorsey, Chris Weinke, and Bama QBs prior to Jalen Hurts

Take him off Alabama and he's prepping for an insurance job right now.

This is something I keep trying to explain to the Jones fans.

He didn't actually show very many NFL traits.  He was the beneficiary of a completely loaded Alabama roster.  He in fact lost the only game he played in decided by less than two scores.  I do not count the Florida game this year since it was two scores until the garbage time TD.

I would argue that you could put any of the top 10 college QB's in the draft on that Alabama team and come up with the exact same or better results.

Watch the tape. Most of his good throws are 1/3 field throws.

So if in the middle of the field between the hashes. 

If on the hash then towards the boundary.

When he makes throws to the field he struggles with placement and timing. 

It's not hard to defend that in the NFL. 

Take away the immediate 3rd and put guys on an island on the outside.

    • I can say that I have defended Canales because I get that they are doing all they can to keep from looking like idiots for drafting Bryce, from the trade up to signing $150m guards to drafting XL and Brooks etc---nothing seems to work.  And Hiring Canales was part of the Bryce Young rehab program, so so he can't really decide to "move on."  That has to come from Morgan and Tepper. Personally, I think Bryce is due for an injury.  He is small, he is not thick, and he has been a LOT more healthy than most any other QB has who has endured so much pressure.  The thing that bothers me is this---Bryce really does not go through his progressions quickly.  He locks on to his presnap read and stays locked onto him for too long--he seems to fail to anticipate the WR/TE's positioning on the play before the cut--for example, if the WR is running a dig and the CB has his back to the inside of the field, he should be open for a second or less just after the cut.  He seems to wait until the cut has been made before deciding, then checking down quickly while moving in the pocket. OL:  There seems to be a lack of communication--is that on Mays?  Watch this team presnap--they seem a bit confused at times.   I can almost predict the success rate of the play by watching the center and QB before the snap.  
    • Anyone else remember back in 2010 when Fox piloted having music under the in-game replays during one of Carolina's games? Not the commercial bumpers but the actual replay clips that the announcers would talk over. Pretty sure it was vs the 49ers. And it was terrible. Point being, Carolina continues being so bad that we get the networks trying things out during their games.
    • Is it bad I found this video more hilarious than pathetic? I am still laughing at that one play where half the people on the field ran into each other and Bryce still couldn't see Chuba wide open... Also laughing at Cade blocking nobody and somehow losing his cleat Man this offense is a poo show
