This is my honest opinion, if could only pick 1 OL from this class to have best chance to make it as multi year NFL starter, against what recruiting services and probably against most opinions on this board, this is my guy. Truth of matter 3-4 in this class, barring injuries of course will at minimum be drafted. But this cat is dedicating and developing to be All American. Probably in last 3 years I’ve only proclaimed this about 1 other player, obviously Stingley. I was fortunate to see him in a couple settings last few months. Just Saying

In his camp here this summer, Jones really did look amazing. He's got literally everything you want in a dominant interior guy. I am little surprised he's still as low as he is in the rankings, but hard to really be upset over an interior OL guy ranked in the Top 250 or so still.

One of the biggest fallacies in ranking is undervaluing interior OL. Ask any QB which is more disruptive, pressure on the edge or up the middle? Which is more important to a run game, lanes between the tackle or setting the edge. The other is the value of a quality center that can make line calls. Cush was more valuable than he gets credited because he not only physically, but mentally set the pace for the OL.
