Our safety from NC State went down? I got you, fam

FA Josh Jones:

What he does best:

• Big combine put him on the radar – 6-foot-1, 220 lbs., 4.41 40, 37.5 inch vertical and 11-foot-0 vertical jump put him in elite company.
• When in position, uses his length well to reach around and break up passes.
• 25/46, 0 TDs, 3 INTs and 6 PDs played some CB early.
• When he stays low and over his feet, and disciplined to his target, he displays the athletic and physical tools needed to make plays on the ball in the air.
• Has the size and strength to compete with tight ends in man coverage.

Player Comparison: Mike Minter. Jones reminds me of a bigger version of Minter. Minter was a second-round pick who went on to have an excellent NFL career. He was a tough, physical presence who turned himself into a well-rounded defender. I think Jones could end up being similar in the NFL and also might be a second-round pick.

He has been in the league for 4 years and is a free agent 3 games into the season. He must not be very good.

... ergh... potential!

Looks like what you've got there is a safety who has trouble with acceleration and change of direction.  Just looking at the scores, I've never seen the guy play.  If he's a FA at this point, there's probably a reason.

Sure lets build a team full of reject players. Gridiron gang it out
