I loved the pick of J. Jones last year. I have always maintained you can't judge a rookie in Labuees D. He showed flashes down the stretch last year. Then, word out of camp was that JJ was coming on, looking like a beast this year. I thought he would prove, this year, that he was a great draft pick....and then, watching him this preseason, he looks exactly as bad as his critics have contended all along: Can't move anyone, can't penetrate, and has always no burst if he does some how. The JJ I am seeing looks just as his detractors have been asserting: bounces off OTs like he is a BB, just can't move anyone or get near the QB, at all.
I am not admitting defeat just yet, but I am saying I might have to admit soon I was wrong. We will soon see.
