Potential top pick Jarvis Jones enters NFL draft

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.

JFC people, we don;t even have a DC yet or know WHAT defense we will even be playing in.

You don't draft people that doesn't fit your scheme.

As it is, he's no better an OLB prospect than Smith is a QB prospect and we need the QB significantly more.

Jarvis Jones has no position in a 4-3.

In a 3-4, overkill.

In a 4-3, none of them really fit.

J Jones is going to be the #1 overall pick. I think it's a lock that he will be no less than the 3rd overall pick. His attitude and approach to the game are unparalleled.

Maybe Detroit or Jacksonville will fall in love with him and overpay to move up

After the combine, he'll probably fall to the late 1st.

Damontre Moore is a superior prospect in nearly every way.

Chiefs are drafting a QB at #1 overall all day but really, this defense needs much more help at the Dline position than LB. I don't believe you can be an elite defense without some strong Dline play and now we only have Poe who might become great and nothing else much good.

That being said, of course if you see Jones as Von Miller, you take him.

I like Moore a lot...5 star bluechip. I'm hearing that Detroit is going to draft Moore with their 1st pick.

Maybe we can swap 2nd rounders with Jacksonville and move down and take him! /Pioli

He's legit. He and Lotulelei are the only defensive guys truly worth the #1 pick.
