That's what I saw from Jones as well. I understand he has NFL size and toughness but I'm still shocked at the level of hype he's been getting from pundits in the last couple weeks. Hope they are better evaluators of qb's than I am. Guess it would be sad if they weren't...

'When I got on the bus for my first road game at Duke, I saw that every player was carrying textbooks or laptops. I coached in the SEC for 25 years, and I had never seen that before, not even once.' - David Cutcliffe to Duke alumni in Washington, DC, June 2013
Hoping that Jones ends up with a good franchise (not you, Washington), Having said that, all the predraft babble is a bastion of misinformation, teams have absolutely no incentive to say who they really like, for obvious reasons...going to a better franchise at a lower pick is not a bad thing at all...
Which makes it great to be a forecaster. No info

Redskins!!!!
[redacted] them and the horses they rode in on.
Lots of buzz that the Giants are really enamored with Jones. They pick at #6 and #17... and the NFL Network's newest mock has them taking Jones...
With the #6 pick of the first round!!
Why are you wasting time here when you could be wasting it by listening to the latest episode of the DBR Podcast?
Green Bay is interested in talking to DJ as well.
https://www.yahoo.com/sports/sure-th...174239838.html(Drew) Lock visiting the Packers this week – and the team also attempting to schedule a visit with Duke’s Daniel Jones – illustrates the last-minute visits that occasionally insert unexpected question marks into the draft.
Q "Why do you like Duke, you didn't even go there." A "Because my art school didn't have a basketball team."
Weird article re DJ and the Giants. “Expert” says DJ is 4th best QB, but NYG will take him at 6 since they’ve changed strategies. Want a “game manager.”

NFL scouting guru and HOF'er Gil Brandt sure likes young Mr. Jones:
Gil Brandt: Daniel Jones and Peyton Manning “the same guy”
https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.co...-the-same-guy/
Speaking of Gil, he was quoted today as saying we're in the Lying Season, nothing is to be believed, smokescreens left and right.
Interesting (if a bit sad) Duke connection: Gil said that years ago his staff knew they had a leak in the organization (giving stuff out to a local paper)...so they set a guy up (on their staff) by
making a notation on their Big Board that they wanted Duke's Mike Junkin (unfortunate first round bust in the league, steroids involved I do believe) even though they had zero interest in
Junkin....and voila, the next day the local rag had an article about the Cowboys being ready to take Junkin.
We'll know where Jones is going once he's gone there, and not a bit sooner.
Daniel Jones getting a lot of buzz on Morning radio- wow.
Read the same on USA Today this morning. Wow. https://www.usatoday.com/story/sport...ay/3533257002/
