Jalon Jones

Tall, well put together dual-threat quarterback prospect. Run-first threat as a prep star in the Washington, D.C. area with good production at multiple stops along the way. As a passer, very compact release, over the top motion and good arm strength. Mechanics improved junior to senior year. Can stand to improve accuracy in short to intermediate throws. Can make throws fairly consistently on run but takes risks outside of pocket. Nimble in tight quarters with great change of direction. Natural runner in the open field with vision and shiftiness in space. Strong relative to size and position. Comfortable in pocket but lacks considerable progression reps.Experience in RPO game with quick trigger. Decisive as runner with good burst and some power. Great bloodlines as mother was 1992 track and field Olympian and father was captain of Colorado's 1990 national title team. True dual-threat with improved consistency in passing game could lead to starting Power Five gig down the line.
