Very apt comparison, IMO, although if anything Jones was supposed to also be more athletic than Browner, mostly on account of his great combine. I'm sure that Pete Carroll was thrilled to have Jones, though, for the same reason that he was happy to get Browner.
No, I mean he was specifically drafted to be a "press corner." Since his defense hadn't been implemented anywhere (as far as I know) people thought he was daft to use a guy at corner who wasn't even a great safety in college (was a RB as much, I believe).
