Adarious Jones

Big-bodied interior defensive line prospect with experience playing inside and on the edge in multiple fronts. Not the longest frame, but already possesses virtually college-ready size with a bit more space to add some bulk. Flashes a quick get-off at the line of scrimmage. Plays with consistently good leverage and power at the point of attack. Motor runs high and physical nature is obvious. Shows the strength to take on double-teams. That strength manifests in effective bull-rushing ability. Active and engaged against the run. Strong tackler who arrives with a purpose. Can improve overall balance and body control. Will need to expand pass-rushing repertoire at the next level. Sometimes catches blocks and must force his way out, which won't be as easy at the Power 5 level. Aggressive style runs him out of plays. Position- and scheme-versatile defensive lineman with tenacious, physical style who should become a Power 5 starter and could eventually reach late-round NFL Draft potential.
