While the team loves the potential Jones brings to the table, it's already clear from rookie minicamp that he has a number of items to work on and has a long way to go before he's ready to quarterback an NFL team, BuffaloBills.com reports. "That's why we're saying this guy is not going to come in and right off the bat know everything like a guy who has been in the league or even a guy who has played three or four years in college," GM Doug Whaley said. "This guy has had 11 starts. So he's a piece of clay we can mold and we think his upside is just untapped."
Translation: His footwork and throws were all over the place this past weekend. That said, Jones put up some college performances that still have people talking and he'd be as big and strong as any of the league's best starters. He'll almost certainly start the year as a No. 3 project, whereas a more polished college QB could have given EJ Manuel a run for his money at the No. 2 job.
