Reminds Us Of

Matt Jones Jacksonville Jaguars

A long, dual-threat quarterback with verified track speed. Has operated primarily out of a single-back spread attack that has some RPOs on the call sheet. As a junior, completed just over 66 percent of his passes, throwing for 1,986 yards with 16 touchdowns to go against six interceptions. Also totaled 520 yards and 11 more scores on the ground. The type of signal caller that will keep defenses honest as he’s a threat to move the chains via delayed draws and quick options. However, isn’t someone that’s constantly looking to take off as he will usually stand his ground in the pocket and go through his progressions. Could best be classified as a touch passer at this stage in his development. Might lack some arm strength, but 11th grade spray chart is full of balls challenging the deeper third. Must continue to improve as a decision-maker and learn how to not lock onto targets, but has some unique tools and has already shown some grit (played most of sophomore year with a broken leg). Should be viewed as a plus athlete trying to play the game’s hardest position. Likely going to need some time before he’s ready for the big stage.
