|BlackJesus| Posted April 29 Author Report Share Posted April 29 Player Bio Jones began his collegiate career at Buffalo after starring at Deerfield High School in Illinois. As a redshirt freshman, he started one of 14 games played for the Bulls (18-395-21.9, three TDs receiving; 15-289-19.3 kick returns). Jones took his game to Iowa in 2019, walking on but sitting out the season due to NCAA transfer regulations. He received a scholarship in 2020 and served as a punt returner in eight contests (22-223-10.1, one TD), receiving second-team All-Big Ten Conference honors. Jones started 10 of 14 appearances at receiver for the Hawkeyes in 2021 (21-323-15.4, three TDs) and was named the conference Return Specialist of the Year (25-635-25.4, one TD kick returns; 37-285-7.7 punt returns). He transferred to Purdue for 2022, becoming one of the top receivers in the country by leading the FBS with 110 receptions, ranking second with a school-record 1,361 receiving yards (12.4 per) and fifth with 12 receiving scores. Jones was named a second-team Associated Press All-American and first-team All-Big Ten pick, also returning kicks (5-78-15.6 kickoffs; 18-114-6.3 punts) in 13 starts before opting out of the team's bowl game to prepare for the draft. -- by Chad Reuter By Lance Zierlein NFL Analyst Draft Projection Rounds 4-5 Overview Exceptionally productive in his season at Purdue after transferring from Iowa, Jones will have trouble shedding tight, press-man coverage due to his lack of suddenness and blow-by speed. He possesses above average ball skills and has a feel for positioning and focus that creates a solid win rate on his contested catches. He can play zone-beater all day long and has the route savvy to keep improving his short-area separation. Jones is unlikely to work the deepest portions of the field but might find work in a possession-based passing game as a Day 3 draft pick. Strengths Runs routes with hip sink and crisp cuts. Generates good burst out of breaks. Clever hand usage for late separation. Bodies up defender, keeping catch space open. Sustains focus with coverage draped over him. Moves feet to work his way to the throw and catches with soft hands. Consistently productive as kick and punt returner. Weaknesses Lacking suddenness to shake press. Has trouble blowing by tight man coverage downfield. Adjusts stride level, alerting coverage of impending break. Has trouble uncovering consistently on all levels. High percentage of tries are contested. Catch radius is very modest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparky151 Posted April 29 Report Share Posted April 29 I'm surprised they don't have agility results for him. He seems like a quick short area guy. I'd compare him to Cole Beasley. Anyway, this is a good pick. He can return punts and looks like the heir to Boyd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
