Cardale Jones press conference today

Cardale Jones to make NFL draft announcement at 3 p.m.

Ohio State quarterback Cardale Jones appears headed toward the NFL draft after just three college starts.

Jones has confirmed on Twitter that he will make a “life changing decision at 3 p.m.“

Although Jones hasn’t said what he will be announcing, players rarely schedule press conferences to announce that they’re staying in school. And on the rare occasions when players do make such announcements, the press conference usually takes place in conjunction with the school’s athletics department. But according to multiple reports, Jones’s announcement will be at the Ginn Academy, where Jones attended high school.

So it now appears nearly certain that Jones will turn pro, after one of the most unusual college careers in the history of the sport: Jones only started three games, and in those three games he led his team to victory in the Big Ten Championship Game and then to the national championship with two wins in the first-ever college football playoff.

Is Jones ready to start in the NFL? Not yet. But he has all the tools that NFL teams look for in a quarterback, and less experienced quarterbacks than Jones have been drafted before, including Matt Cassel and Jay Schroeder. Jones is making a decision few expected as recently as a few days ago, but he’s probably making the right decision.

Getting the degree is the best backup plan an athlete can obtain.

Finishing school while on scholarship is pretty valuable from a financial standpoint, and if he went to the league and washed out, he's paying his own way to go back.

Good decision.

A **** load more than if he got a degree in basket weaving. Besides, school will be there after his career.

Big mistake. 3 games is enough to get everyone excited but not show his flaws.
It might be a mistake. Then again, maybe he's a number one pick in a couple of years.

Is the kid smart?


What degree is he getting?


I think this is a horrible decision, but I guess it's better to get a degree and make 50k a year (maybe) than make an NFL roster (which he will) and make that amount almost every month.


Edit: Rookie Salary is 420k.

Notorious the extra starts should help improve his future value in the pros. He would already be light years behind Winston and Mariota this year.

I don't think I'd spend a First round pick on a 25 yr old.
