That's one long time problem solved...
I like Jones a lot, but he had A Lot of bad plays last year. I am very excited about his future and think he is going to be a good player for us, but he needs to improve a lot over his play from last year. I saw the same missed assignments and bad angles I've seen from everyone else we've put back there. Luckily I saw it with more athletic ability and better coverage skills!!! Plus from a first year player it is expected that we see warts. Add in that he was asked to learn multiple positions and it is even a little more expected.

I agree, but I thought asking a rookie to learn different positions was tough. If he gets to concentrate on FS, I'd expect a big jump

yep pair him with Karl Joseph or Vonn bell and you got a pretty good starting pair of safetys add in a quality corner to pair with Scandrick and the standard coverage unit is miles ahead of where it has been for a long time
