flgreen Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 This Jones thing kind of baffles me. Jones started for a year for the Jets. Played both right side and Left side. He wasn't very good, and is the reason D-Brick was taken. I'll say one thing, in that year he was a heck of a lot better then Clement is right now. Could he have regressed so far that he couldn't beat out that stiff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lurker Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 I'd still take Jones over Clement and Clarke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He started at LT and was moved because even DuhHermie could see that Jones was liable to be charged with accomplice to manslaughter trying to protect a QB's blindside. The fact that he was at RT and the QB's could see the defender coming probably saved him from being responsible for at least 10 more sacks. Our line is bad, but Jones is hands down the worst OL I have ever seen in my life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They might take time to develop, but I don't think Jones was ever going to develop into anything and would have gotten a few more QBs killed.
