Georgia's Jarvis Jones, whom some people are now thinking will slip out of the first round.
Why? Are they nuts?
His 4.92 forty time is too slow.
So do people prefer Aaron Maybin or something? Jeez!
In the few games I saw him he looked to have elite quickness, explosion, and power. I'm just an idiot, but he looks like the next Von Miller. And I was saying the same thing last year about Bruce Irvin out of WVU. I had considered Irvin a first-rounder and was routinely laughed at.
This Jones kid will create havoc and become a household name. Like another undervalued player in Michigan State's RB Le'Veon Bell, a running back, who got a little over half his 1800 yards after initial contact playing behind a blundering, Keystone cops offensive line.
If the Jets get Jones and the Broncos get Bell, things could get pretty interesting.
In an era of Groupthink, Jarvis Jones is a guy to keep your eyes on. I know there's a further complication with a spine injury, the type that ended the career of McNeil in San Diego in sudden fashion. (He transferred from USC because they wouldn't clear him to play.)
But still... Tavon Wilson in three years had two or three interceptions. Jones has been dominant, a difference maker, for two years in the premier college conference. If he slips, do we grab him?
How can we not?
