Obviously none of us know.
In order to maximize their potential every QB needs a solid supporting cast or receivers, blockers and quality coaching. They also need a defense that can make some stops every now and then. AR, Mahomes and Lawrence is no different.
I don't think Jones has Mahomes' talent or that something TB12 has but My gut tells me Mac Jones' ceiling is somewhere between franchise player and average player.
I feel like hes going to have a Roethlisberger career without the picks and dumbass decisions.
With the right surrounding talent, coaching and health I can easily see Jones having a few Pro Bowl years here and there but not perennial ones like Brees, AR, TB12, Manning, Mahomes, etc.
Does he have the talent to carry a team just by walking on the field and is good for 4-5 wins and making the playoffs every year? My gut tells me no.
You haven't been reading the Board much lately, I take it? There are at least a half dozen posters who are 100% certain on this.Obviously none of us know.
A poor mans Brady.I don't really believe in writing off a player's "ceiling" because of physical traits. The QBs taken ahead of him, while physically gifted enough to be the next Mahomes, will probably not actually reach that level. On the flip side, it's entirely possible Jones' arm strength and mobility are good enough to be an NFL superstar if he plays a cerebral enough game.
No, I don't think he's going to be Brady. I think he could be a poor man's Brady, though.
Because despite our better judgement, people are seduced by athleticism rather than what's important, can he play?Why does your gut tell you that? From what I've seen he's accurate, able to read defenses well at the collegiate level and has vision on the field, used his eyes and pump fakes to create space for his receivers. I think he's a stud

So a two time Super bowl champion career? I'm in.Obviously none of us know.

Spot on. Exactly my take too. He is not a QB that will elevate but if he has some talent around him, he can get the job done.Obviously none of us know.

Jones doesn't have to be TFB superstar, all he needs to be is young TFB who made the right decision quickly and throw the ball accurately.
Are you disagreeing with me? I said specifically that he will not be the next Brady.Nobody will be the next Brady in our lifetime.
With that said, Mac Jones being a good QB will be a win for us.
