All I know is I'm going to have my son practice the broad jump for 6 hours a day for the next 6 years.

Like I said before, scouts really loved his film. What the combine/work outs really accomplished is show that he is as good an athtlete at the position as you will find coming from any program.

You can practice forever. You need to be born with that gift.

Apparently, good parenting helped build good skills far removed from a field to boot. Good luck to Byron, on and off the field!

The Cowboys are also a team in need of secondary help and a possible landing spot for Byron.

If he slips to the 2nd round, I have seen talk that the Niners maybe interested.

Head Coach: Chuck Pagano

2014 Record: 11-5

ANALYSIS: The Colts added some huge pieces in free agency with the additions of running back Frank Gore, wide receiver Andre Johnson, defensive tackle Kendall Langford, and pass rusher Trent Cole. Linebacker/safety Shaq Thompson is still out there but with this pick Indy goes offense with the versatile and athlete defensive back Byron Jones from UConn. He's freaky and can play corner and safety.

 

[huskypantz]

Kiper Jr ranked him the 3rd or 4th best corner in the draft and then ranked him 1B as a safety.

 

[ktuck911]

Please no.

I wouldn't be mad... In fact he's scheduled to visit Valley Ranch this week I believe...

I honestly think he'll be a solid 2nd round pick for some lucky team... If the Patriots don't pick him at #32 in rd 1... and I think he ends up as a Safety in the league... for a looooong time... He's gonna make a ton of plays on the ball back there...with his size, speed and length...He'd be a welcome addition in Big D... IMO, by year 3 he'll a solid starter...

#UConn's Byron Jones is one of 26 players who has accepted invites to attend NFL draft

>>Former UConn defensive back Byron Jones, who has been skyrocketing up the draft boards after his sensational showings at the NFL Scouting Combine and at UConn's pro day, is among 26 players who have accepted invitations to attend the NFL

The NFL announced the list of names today and Jones is one of three cornerbacks and four defensive backs heading to Chicago for the draft.<<

Rumors in the Boston papers according to some friends is that the Pats are looking at Jones for their last pick in the 1st round and need secondary help, especially corner. Been getting - hey' who is this guy' questions.

I've seen a few mock drafts with him going to the Patriots 32nd overall, but I've also seen a lot more mock drafts with him going earlier to the Cowboys, Chiefs and Eagles. I've seen him as high as 15 and as low as 44. I'm crossing my fingers that he goes to NE, so I can replace my Darius Butler jersey.

Dallas with the #27 pick. Lock it in......unless Philly steals him beforehand.
