re: Chad Jones stock going into the draft

Had a long talk with a professor of mine who does image consulting for coaches and players. He said for Chad Jones, college ball was too easy. Wasn't a challenge.
He then cited the Miss. State game and the goal line stand. Said that if that had happened at Florida or Alabama (during their Champ run), those two plays (the blocked pass and the tackle up the middle) would have gone down as some of the greatest plays in NCAA football history.
Also said that baseball was just something to pass the time. He was bored during spring workouts for football, and he is good at baseball, so he played.
From this perspective, sounds like this kid is just a freak athlete who needs to be challenged. We shall see...

McFly, that is true.
I got one for you. A college WR coach I know was asked by a Pro coach about a former LSU player that was up for the draft. What he told him, keep you thumb on him. Load his contract with incentives, he'll make you a good player.
Chad is like the smart kid in the class thats not being challenged. Think about when hes on the mound, one on one, pitcher vs batter, who you got your money on?
