Intelligence comes first at the QB position.
while that tweet displays a lack of maturity at the time.....it does not denote a lack of intelligence........unlike many such tweets from his generation,...at least that particular tweet has no spelling errors,...and other than some slang, ie. "we aint"...the grammar is not fully atrocious.
no date rape allegations.....
no crab theft allegations.....
has all of the measurable.....
throws a fantastic deep ball.....
only three starts...but all three were "Win or go Home" type scenarios....and he not only responded, but got better with each game.....(that particular trait by the way could be the most important of the un-measurable)
Ohio state runs their version of a read option offense,...but Jones is a pocket passer....if he were to come available a smart coach would snatch him up...hopefully before he gets too much of that read option crap pounded into his head.
the biggest knock on Aaron Rodgers, and the other Jeff Tedford QB's in the draft over the years was the fact that they were so well schooled in playing within Tedford's system that their play became mechanical....and prior to Rodgers none of the others could get past that and become more fluid a passer as the NFL game requires...... Cardale Jones has talent, leadership, and poise...none of which can be coached effectively..... IMO if he were to declare for the draft tomorrow(if he is eligible) he would have a much better chance for success at the next level than if he spends two more years playing at Ohio State. The modern college offenses just do not properly prepare a QB to play in the NFL with a few exceptions.
When you consider that the second string QB was considered a bona fide star,....it is not likely Jones will even start next season and may spend the rest of his college career riding the pine.
