Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
No one expected much from Jones -- until he ran the 40-yard dash in 4.37 seconds at the Indianapolis scouting combine. Because of that speed, Jones emerged as one of the most intriguing prospects in the draft. ... For the last four years, Jones, who started at QB (and played basketball) for Arkansas, became one of the biggest offensive threats in the SEC, thanks in part to his ability to elude tackles and sprint past defensive backs, while forcing defensive coordinators to focus their teams' game plans on stopping him. ... Although he's projected as either a receiver or tight end, lack of blocking experience could be a limiting factor should he be asked to line up tight.
