being proof that he had the best season of any SEC QB ever. He had the highest grade by Pro Football Focus.
Again, I'm not saying he won't be successful, I just have some skepticism because of all of the tools he had at his disposal.
I don't think PFF grade really takes that into account.
From the same article:
Burrow however, was the No. 1 player on our Big Board a year ago and considered a better prospect than Jones because he was helped out less by his offense...
The Alabama offense was such a cheat code — even after losing Jerry Jeudy and Henry Ruggs III to the NFL draft last season — that Jones was rarely asked to deal with tight spaces or difficult situations.
This is similar to the knock on Zach Wilson — that we simply haven’t seen him have to make throws in some of these situations — but a more harmful unknown for Jones because he has fewer physical tools to mitigate the more difficult situations.
