Jones has the size and speed that could rival most NFL backs. He runs with excellent vision and is a load to bring down. He's shown flashes of being a big time back and blew some people away at a few camps this summer. He's had some injury problems and has never been a full time back, however.


Biography:
Only played in 5 games as a junior because of a high ankle sprain, but still managed 738 yards and 10 touchdowns.

Scout Report:
A big back with excellent quickness, explosion, and lateral movement, Jones has the power to go between the tackles and the speed to take it the distance once he has broken through the initial line of defense.
