I watched every UGA game this year. The guy is incredible. But he's a 3-4 stand up pass rusher and will most certainly be gone in the top 10 if not top 5. The only way I can see him falling is if he gets terrible medical evaluations during the combine - he has spinal stenosis, and some teams could be concerned about longevity.

With a new front office, I think we throw our perceptions of "team needs" out the window, so I wouldn't be surprised if we drafted high picks at perceived positions of strength like DE or LB. But combine the chances of Jones falling with us taking a guy that doesn't really fit the scheme, and I think odds are extremely slim that Jarvis Jones lands here.

Being a Georgia fan, I'd love to have another UGA guy on the team. I wanted Brandon Boykin badly last year. He looks like a terrific find for the Eagles right now.

While we're discussing UGA players, I'll go ahead and say that I'd love to see Bacarri Rambo with the Panthers...second round pick. He's a turnover machine. Can't remember how many forced fumbles but tied the UGA record for interceptions in his time there (16).

This is a great point, especially with where Gettleman comes from. If we're not sold on any of the OL or WR in the first round it would not shock me at all to see us draft a pass rusher....

The kid is amazing... But we don't have a spot for him. We'd have to cut one of our OLB (or two) to bring him here (assuming he takes the roll of a Von Miller type 4-3 LB) or he'd only be on the field on passing downs. I say if he does last that long.. Trade the pick someone will come calling because he's a beast

      Possible, he is physical and a forchecker but not a needle mover, but i wouldnt mind it, although I think we have enough 4th line grinders right now between Carrier Robinson and Janakowski  down there, i actually really love our 4th line.            We need scoring in the top 6, and a RHD at this point its definitely coming via trade.            Rasmus Andersson I hear may be on the market, it feels like every couple of seasons someone links us to Erik Karlsson.       As far as centers go,  Marco Rossi (even though we have a ton of smurf already)     Jordan Kyrou is an intriguing option if he is available.           At this point i think Rod should just move Jarvis to his natural center position to give us a 1B center...   yes hes also a smurf but he plays way bigger than he is stylistically.

      The problem with these summary stats and rankings is that they flatten out progression and assume an even performance throughout the year. His first 3 or 4 games of the season don't really tell you anything about his current level of capacity but more about where he started and what his floor was last year. Given his last several games were against playoff teams, that gives you an idea of his current ability coming into the season. But it will serve more as a floor than a ceiling given the upgrade in talent on offense. And a better defense should give us more stops which results in shorter fields and more opportunities. And going into his third year there is no reason to suspect he will regress. His success wasn't  based on being superhuman but being smart and taking what was the defense was giving him. Distributing to the other guys not trying to do it on his own. He was great at the end when pressured and consistently moved the ball. That makes him a great game manager which is what we need. Something that is easier to do and relies on everyone else rather than having to be a top physical specimen or do it on his own. No one can predict the future but to say we haven't improved much is crazy given just having the Browns anchoring the defensive line will shut down the run and make sure QBs won't be stepping up in the pocket.  Assuming Evero got the message to can the prevent defense and bend until you break philosophy.
