He seems like the kind of guy that could flourish under a new regime but you can't teach size, and he screams dime safety to me... I'm rooting for the kid, but he still looks too frail to dissuade me from my doubts about his ability to be an effective lb (I fully understand if this comes off as hypocrisy considering I championed DJ Alexander in the past, but I prefer to look at it as growth - I learned from my mistake) Anyways, in the grand scheme of things, our trajectory is undeniably up; so if arguing a point about a role player is even worth the argument, I'd say we're in a good place regarding the state of the franchise |

I wish he was just a little bigger and better getting off blocks so he could play mlb

Ok just looked up combine #s and yes, they're not ridiculously skewed in one way or another, but as far as film goes, Deion Jones is in a different stratosphere as D O D

I'm looking forward to seeing how him, Ward, Watts, and even Speaks look with more experience and a new/more aggressive scheme.

Was a big fan of DoD when we drafted him.
A tweener in terms to an ideal position fit, but just an absolute athlete and baller.

You’re acting like I said he’s the next Deion Jones. I was just pointing out that size wasn’t quite the issue that you were making it out to be. |

I loved Deion Jones coming out but even I know his film wasn’t THAT great.
If it were, he would’ve been a 1st round pick with his speed. |

I know people have banged on about stopping the run and all that, but it's a passing league and a guy like DOD can fill a really important role exactly as he is, I don't think he needs to add any weight. He just needs more experience to not make the mental errors.
I very much doubt he's a superstar but he can play an important role to an above league average standard and we only spent a late 3rd on him. It's not a home run but it's a solid stand up double to left field. |
