My case against Jarvis Jones

Having a discussion is fine, but digging out a mass amount of stats and calling the thread "my case against Jarvis Jones" is saying something. I'm all about discussing who the next Saint will be, but focusing on bashing one dude is a bit extreme.

I think he went overboard with the stats deal. Yeah, we get that overall sack numbers aren't the most determinative statistic when it comes to drafting a DE. The multiple paragraphs are overkill and don't really do anything to bolster his case. It's almost as if we're supposed to believe gaudy sack numbers in NCAA play is a bad thing.

Anyway, what gets lost in his post is that he does finally get to real criticisms of Jones (size). As someone else mentioned, Jones isn't a super-elite, no-miss player because of physical limitations, but he looks to be a very solid, productive defensive player on the next level for some time. I'd be pleased as punch with that.
