Some may call Byron Jones a workout warrior, while I like to label him as an immensely talented cornerback with unreal potential and athleticism. In fact, I have him as my fourth cornerback in the 2015 NFL Draft. His ability to mirror receivers and high point the ball really intrigue me as a scout. I believe the athleticism he possesses makes up for the lack of change of direction skills, but he needs to become more disciplined in press coverage. Overall, he is a tantalizing prospect for his size/speed combo and man coverage skills, and I believe that he will go in between picks 20-32 because of the ability to go play free safety as well. – <a href=.
