Downtown says:
In my opinion, I’d take Jacoby Brissett over Cardele Jones. Brissett has more tape and I’ll always take the known over the unknown, unless the known is really bad. Brissett is far from bad but he’s far from great. He’s got the intangibles to become a very interesting prospect. He’s not as mobile as people suggest but he stands in the pocket and delivers passes with a relatively strong arm. His arm won’t be the strongest in the draft and he’s far from the accurate (59.9% career completion percentage) but he’s smart football player. Until we see what he does in the combine, Brissett is nothing better than a 5th round pick. If he has a strong combine/pro day, I believe a team will take him sooner than that though.
Dorf says:
I will fully admit that I have not watched Brissett live, but only on tape (YouTube). I’m not that impressed, but then again this class is shallower than a kiddie pool on quarterback talent, so he cracks my top ten QB prospects.
