Comments:
09/12/09- vs. Cent Mich- A LB/S type guy who lacks size to be an every down ILB in the NFL. Hes got Bryan Scott build.

11/20/2010- vs. Purdue

1st Qtr:
8:47- Nice job diagnosing the run, mirroring, and coming up to make the tackle.
8:11- Blocked out of the play at the second level.

2nd Qtr:
10:51- Gets to the RB and makes the tackle.
10:23- Nice job sliding with the play and making the tackle.
3:55- Took his slide to wide and was out of the play.
2:21- A bit late diagnosing the pass and rotating to the TE in the middle.
1:30- His best asset is that he stays home and doesn't over-pursue.
0:08- Comes up to pressure the QB on the roll out but he makes the TD toss.

Greg Jones, in this game, shows what he is... a solid ILB who may not make the big plays as much as you would like but won't give up big plays much either. He diagnoses plays well, doesn't over pursue, slides, and mirrors well. He has an average build for the position, may actually be a bit lean in his bulk.Because he doesn't play with elite intensity and doesn't make many big plays, he should be drafted outside of round 1. But because he's a solid tackler and defender, especially against the run, a team will be thinking about him in round 2 or 3. He may do best in a 3-4 where he has more LB help.
