Accept the fact his deep ball doesn't look that good if the wr doesn't have 3 to 4 steps on a Db..

Not true at all. You clearly don't like him which is fine. Buy let's not assume that everyone agrees with you or that you even know what you are talking about  It doesn't keep you from dominating any Jones thread with negativity or stating you opinion no matter how biased.

We just watched clips of Teddy throwing deep to DJ. He threw it deep. They were just underthrown. Which is what we just saw from Mac Jones today. 

No they all werent. You see what you want to see. He did a very good job and put himself out there making difficult throws and showed a lot of heart and skill. If we draft him he will be a good one for us.

Be mad all you want but alot of ppl saw the same things I saw today... You want to convince ppl his arm strength and athleticism isn't a problem.   When reality is we've seen  alot of QBS with similar stats and ability fail for the same reason over and over again..

Not a lot. I heard some criticism as expected but overall more folks were impressed versus disappointed. Stats aren't what I look at but rather the qualities that make for a successful QB in the NFL little things like accuracy, good football knowledge, quick decisions, good elusiveness in the pocket, able to make all the throws. Has a good deep ball, etc. Just a couple of things that Jones had in abundance.

Itell them what I see and think and then only respond most times to direct posts involving me. I don't try to dominate the conversation and post 50 times saying the same thing as if that might keep us from drafting him.

Again this is your opinion and alot of credit giving to stuff you can't measure when the guy had the best weapons on the best team... 

Intangibles... super football knowledge, quick decision maker, great pass anticpater.. All stuff we don't know will translate when not having the better team every time you come on the field...

Your opinion that isn't collaborated or consensus opinion.. Can make all the throws, good deep ball, elusive in the pocket...

And this Accuracy thing has been proven over and over again as a thing you can fix with better offensive scheme and better surrounding talent... So it shouldn't be considered a supreme attribute...

You’re patting him on the back for “putting himself out there”? And “showing a lot of heart” on a Pro Day?

And this ^^^..

When you have to give credit for doing what all QBS are expected to do on Pro Days it's a sign of reaching to prove a point you don't really believe in..

    • Interesting topic.  I have had a few NFL friends and one told me that he could not work out or train unless the activities and facilities were approved. AI: In many NFL contracts, certain activities are restricted, and injuries sustained during those activities can lead to the voiding of contract guarantees or even the entire contract. These restrictions often include dangerous activities like skydiving, rock climbing, or even engaging in contact sports like boxing. Additionally, injuries sustained while working out at non-team facilities or during personal recreational activities may be classified as "non-football injuries," potentially impacting the player's compensation.    Having said that, I question the reason the person filming this was not helping.  Secondly, the decision to put it on social media makes it seem a bit prearranged.  I do not think this would violate his contract, but I do think it is a bit stupid on his part in that he could be injured.    
    • Doesn't make it right.  And as you put it, you wanted to ban him from being country, which is essentially policing who he is as a person lol  I get protecting the "asset", but banning people from living their life is crazy. Russell Wilson likes to play helicopter pilot.  I would deem that WAY more dangerous.  Those things scare me.  I still wouldn't want to keep him from doing it if I were his boss.  I would just try not to think about it, haha.
    • Could do better could do worse. I've seen some people very indignant over bringing him back and I can absolutely relate to the sentiment. But it's just in a backup role. He's also a good locker room presence and an effort player so for a 1 year rental in a year where we aren't going to do much it's fine. This is a development year. And there will be options if need be at the trade deadline. Besides at the end of the day we all knew a signing like this was around the corner after how drafting Mark Williams ended. He should have been our franchise center for the next several years. I don’t put that failure on the Hornets.
