Potential top pick Jarvis Jones enters NFL draft
Potential top pick Jarvis Jones enters NFL draft
Posted by Michael David Smith on January 4, 2013, 12:20 PM EST ![]() AP Jarvis Jones, a Georgia outside linebacker who is viewed as a potential first overall pick in the 2013 NFL draft, has made his decision: He’s leaving school to go pro.That decision has been expected all year, as Jones has been discussed as one of the best pro prospects in college football. ESPN’s Mel Kiper ranks Jones as the best player at any position in this year’s draft. Jones has led the SEC in sacks in each of the last two seasons, and he also led the NCAA in forced fumbles in 2012. There may be questions, however, about whether he’s a consistent every-down player, and there could also be questions about his injury history: He started his college career at USC and transferred after the school’s doctors recommended that he quit football because of spinal stenosis. Georgia’s doctors have cleared him to play and he has had no further neck problems, but he did have ankle, groin and shoulder injuries that hampered him at times in 2012 and caused him to miss two games. If Jones is healthy, however, scouts may drool over his ability to get to the quarterback. With the Chiefs owning the first overall pick in the draft, Andy Reid could be coaching Jones in Kansas City next year. |

If we go 4-3 it would be almost worth taking this guy over a QB since Hali would become a DE. Almost.

Reid will have a plan. I trust him with our QB situation, bringing in three new guys.

If Jarvis Jones were Clowney, I might care.
As it is, he's no better an OLB prospect than Smith is a QB prospect and we need the QB significantly more.

if we aren't taking a QB at 1 (which I think is reeruned), I'd rather have Jones than T'eo etc.
