Scouting Report: Strengths
- Jones plays with a confident demeanor and has the athleticism to move out of the pocket and create plays out of structure.
- Picks up yards with his legs when needed.
- Athletic build with plenty of room for another 10-15 pounds of muscle mass. Mobile quarterback who can buy time in the pocket and is a threat to gain yards with his feet.
- He has a quick release and shows good accuracy on shorter throws when on the move to either side.
- Jones moves effectively and can throw on the run. He’s at his best on bootlegs, showing zip and accuracy on those throws.
- Athletic quarterback who is a threat to leave the pocket and gain positive yardage at any time. Possesses very good vision balance, elusiveness and deceptive speed and power as a runner.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Needs to improve his touch at all levels and know when to gun it and when to take something off his throws. Accuracy is solid, but far from great with streaky ball placement downfield as Jones tries to thread the needle too much.
- Has a way to go in terms of being able to process coverages and run a multi-progression passing game.
- Too often fails to give receivers a chance to make a play after the catch. High completion percentage padded by many quick screens.
