Adam Jones showed a lot of promise coming out of West Virginia University in 2005. There was no doubting the talent the former Mountaineer had at the cornerback position. Jones had speed, athleticism, and excellent ball skills. Unfortunately, he also had a temper and unique ability to find trouble. Still, the Titans took a chance and drafted Jones with the sixth pick of the draft.
Early in his career Jones flashed plenty of ability but was unreliable with his ability to stay on the field. This led to Jones being let go by Tennessee and suspended after only two years in the league.
