Downtown says:
To be honest, there’s not enough tape of this guy. I don’t think there’s one thing I can pick out and say is a strength. He lacks ideal accuracy for a quarterback with his arm strength, he needs to improve his footwork and he tends to hold onto the ball for too long. He is a mobile quarterback so it doesn’t make sense for him to wait on a receiver. Jones is an interesting prospect and should get a chance to start, one day. For now, he’s a 5th rounder in my opinion.

Talk about a guy that should have struck while the iron was hot. Now Cardale Jones will be selected late in the process (if he’s selected at all) and will have to ride the pine. If everything goes right in his development (which it won’t) he could be a poor man’s Ben Roethlisberger, if not, he’ll be out of the league in a short amount of time.
