Emory Jones, Arizona State

Accuracy: Accuracy is good from a short to intermediate level, deep-ball accuracy is troublesome, to say the least. I don’t see that improving at Arizona State this year but overall he is very serviceable in this area. 

Arm Strength: Good zip on his passes, able to make throws to different levels of the field with ease. Overall has an NFL arm through and through in terms of strength, don’t see weather giving him any issues either.

Size: Isn’t the biggest mobile quarterback but he does have some build to himself. Doesn’t protect himself when he runs or avoid too much contact so that will need to be corrected because he does not have the size for that at the next level in my opinion.

Mobility: Incredibly mobile, has good vision as a runner when scrambling in a designed or improvised run. Also very mobile and aware in the pocket and his mobility saves him there.

Decision Making: Florida gave him a lot of RPO plays and his decision-making in regards to those was flawless for the most part. He does, however, make some questionable throws which makes him prone to turnovers.

Out of Structure: When a play breaks down or if he is forced out of the pocket he has zero issues rolling out and throwing off-platform or creating with his legs. One of his better overall traits in his report.

Pocket Awareness: Has a tremendous sense for the offensive line and when it is collapsing or giving him time. His mobility allows him to move around freely while also extending plays by rolling out in a timely manner when need be.

Touch/Placement: Touch on passes is about average, his ball placement however leaves some to be desired. Often throws short or ahead of receivers on all levels of the field, no level is immune to it sadly.

Mechanics: Clean throwing mechanics, clean footwork, overall has very good mechanics both upper and lower body. Nothing he does prolongs his throwing motion and his feet are constantly calm and in place.

Progressions: Can make progressions at times but he is more prone to seeing his first read and then ducking and running. Could have more to do with Dan Mullen’s offense, so this trait will be worth watching in a new offense.
