Scouting Report: Strengths
  • His ball skills are very good. Jones tracks the ball well downfield and has the hands and coordination to come away with interceptions even when Jones isn’t targeted often.
  • His length and leaping ability allow him to high-point the ball and make plays. He would have had bigger interception numbers in college had opposing quarterbacks not gone out of their way to avoid him.
  • Trusts his eyes with very good awareness. Has very good reaction skills to break quickly on the ball.
  • Jones tracks the ball well and does a nice job of getting his head around in plenty of time to avoid flags.
  • Has quick feet and excellent change-of-direction ability, capable of mirroring quickness underneath.
  • Can track the ball downfield and gets his head around when playing in a trail position, and he shows excellent ball skills when breaking on a route. He’s a plus tackler in run support as well.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
  • He’ll draw plenty of flags early on with his playing style. Jones is hesitant when facing the action in zone coverage.
  • Vulnerable to big plays trying to bait the quarterback.
  • Lacks elite speed to recover if beaten on double move. Ducks his head and swipes too often on open-field tackles.

*Percentile Ranking in Player's Position Group (NFL Combine Historical Data): This percentile reflects how a player's specific statistics rank in comparison to historical performances at the NFL Combine, specifically within their position group. A higher percentile indicates a better performance. For instance, being in the 90th percentile for a particular stat means the player outperformed 90% of their peers in that category.

*Similarity Percentage: This percentage is calculated based on a comprehensive analysis of various factors, including height, weight, 40-yard dash times, on-field performance statistics, and overall player rating. The analysis is conducted against our database of draft prospects from 2021 to 2023. This similarity score helps in evaluating how closely a current prospect aligns with past prospects. It is important to note, however, that this score reflects similarities based on college production and attributes, and does not account for eventual success or performance in the NFL.
