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.

If it's your first round first overall pick, it's a huge failure.

Given the lack of blue chippers at other positions, it's entirely possible.

Ahem.

I posted this immediately after the "Jarvis Jones will be legendary" silliness.

If JJ is an impact player and plays at a high level for 6 years that is not failing, obviously.

We're not going to play JJ because we're not going to draft him.

Marcus McNeill played at a high level for THREE.

What is your deal anyway? You obviously don't have a ****ing clue what you're talking about. Daddy didn't hug you enough so you enjoy getting slapped around for attention?

I wouldn't wanna go thru the whole over analyzing that he's gone thru for a whole year.

This year, he's likely a second rounder. Last year, he's the 3rd QB on the board.

I'd say he's a 1st rounder no doubt. Potentially very early 1st rounder. Things will change here shortly as he'll gain some steam back.

Is that seriously the best you could come up with in 15 minutes?

All of the QBs are going to rise.

Just remember Christian Ponder and Jake Locker.
