And he does that by playing a totally fake position that doesn't exist in the NFL. Are you stupid?


It's a transition? He doesn't have to lineup in the I or be strictly a wide receiver to help transition him out of playing QB. He is going to be used by Urban the best way possible to use his skills, which mean he will throw the ball some to make defenses prepare for more things. Don't really have to look at things black and white big guy.

I heard a radio snippet that interviewed Jones about his stance on the NFL and he said that he felt like he wasn't ready yet to make the jump. If a player is doubting is ability to compete, I doubt that he leaves.

He has to decide if he thinks his shoulder can hold up as a QB or if he thinks the NFL would value him more as a RB. Him playing a hybrid-type thing like you stupidly pointed out would not provide any service to him in terms of NFL draft stick.
