is an emerging offensive line prospect who brings toughness and athletic ability to the trenches. At 6’3”, he possesses a solid frame that continues to develop as he adds strength and size. Jones shows good mobility for an offensive lineman, allowing him to reach defenders and execute blocks in space. In the run game, he plays with physicality and works hard to finish his blocks. His quick first step allows him to get leverage on defenders and establish position early in the rep. Jones also demonstrates the ability to mirror pass rushers, showing promising pass protection skills for his class. His effort and motor stand out, as he consistently works through the whistle to maintain control of defenders. With continued development in strength and technique, Jones has the potential to become a very effective interior lineman.

is an excellent player who played at a high level last year for Penn Hills as an offensive tackle. His ability to fire off the ball and block defenders in the run game is good. He needs to add some strength, but more time in the weight room in the off-season will help take care of that. As a pass blocker, he stands out in a big way. He moves his feet well and does a good job of engaging with edge defenders and keeping them at bay. He also shows good lateral quickness by staying in front of them. Jones is a good prospect who displays excellent ability and should only improve next season.

6’3, 240 pounds. 3.5 GPA at Penn Hills.
Has a quick three-minute tape posted on Hudl. Ranked inside the Top 80, this a debut rank for the new name on our list. First rep on tape is a good one. Is stationed at left tackle and works a kick-slide against a rush that is looking to get around his 6’3 frame. Jones doesn’t panic, redirects the PR path with accurate hand shots, feels his opponent become off-balanced, and goes for the kill with a flattening in the backfield. On the athletic end of the OT spectrum, handles outside speed well, he should considering he’s just 240 pounds. Has a strong lower back, one that can absorb the brunt of poor power rush moves, the rep at the 1:12 mark proves it. Received a high ranking due to inklings of what he could become. Will Jones get taller or put on more weight? Will he release a junior tape in the future 5-10 minutes deep filled with elite reps? I want to see more development and production moving forward. Great debut ranking and great initial tape.
