I agree, I made the same point a few times earlier.

Agree with ya..... on not drafting based on the school. I've heard the same thing about OSU Qb's
Jones?......I would not draft Jones in the 4th. There's just nothing special about the guy IMO.

I didn't ignore him. I just said him having first round talent all over the field makes me take pause on how he will develop as a prospect.

you basically said that having nfl talent at every position makes you have doubt on their ability to be good in the nfl. That’s crazy talk IMO. Your “pause” would make you miss on some guys that end up absolutely being studs in the nfl. If a guy constantly beats his matchup soundly, it’s typically because he is better than whomst he is matched up against. Being the best will never give me “pause” on a prospect. You just have to actually single out their matchups and how they performed...not how the team performed

I have the same worries with trask, and I like him as a prospect.
I'm not saying jones can't be good, but he's got limited arm talent and limited mobility, just like trask. They are both smart, and they are both playing with NFL Talent at the skill positions.
It just scares me, is all. I won't mind taking either, I just don't think I want either in the first. If we could get them in the 2nd I'd love it.
This CFB playoffs will def be interesting to see how he performs.

I agree Jones and trask are not the answer. I’ve been saying that all season long. However, the talent they play with doesn’t make me hesitate or factor into it at all for me.

Ehh, I'd still rather take a risk on one of those in the 2nd round and have them bust than take anyone else in this class.
We won't have a shot at any of the top 4 unless ryan pace pulls a classic pace and trades up. Knowing him it will be for trey lance and he'll end up busting.

You should have used him as an example out of Texas Tech. Not Clemson

Mack Jones is impressing today. Just focus on what he's doing. He's setting his feet and squaring his shoulders on the run, and actually using the pocket.
It doesn't hurt having all of the talent but he's making every throw you could want today.

He is making quick decisions, but is not getting any pressure...

I didn't recall suggesting drafting him. He had a better day than most other prospects is all.

I was going to right my opinion but you nailed it. If hes there in the 2nd sure why not but no way id take him in the first.

In a draft thats pretty deep at WR it would be absolutely moronic.

I'd consider him in one. Watching him run the o, throw on time and make all the right decisions translates well to the next level. Not a big run threat and not a gun for an arm but accurate with enough velocity at the next level and a guy that could run a complex O. I don't watch much college ball so had little appreciation for him. He's in an ideal situation but he's also making the most of it. Dude can process like a vet and has enough tools.
He may never be elite but he looks plug and play.

He could give Chase Daniel a run for his money.

Except as I pointed out earlier I said it would be a mistake for the Bears to use a first round pick this year on a QB. No Trask or Jones in the first. I went on to look at mid First round quarterback over the past 20 years and found only three, Rodgers, Flacco, and Jackson. That's some really bad odds if you ask me. Bears cannot be so desperate as to take a mid first round QB. I also see both Jones and Trask as mid to low first round picks just because of the position.
