When I first got the list of prospects to do profiles on, Connecticut defensive back Byron Jones was listed as CBS Sports as their #75 overall prospect. That was just a couple months ago, yet now he finds himself in the conversation for possibly being a first round draft selection.
That jump in popularity didn’t happen by accident. Byron Jones had an amazing combine including one of the most insane broad jumps that I’ve ever seen in my life. A combination of speed, size, and athletic ability is the major appeal of him and that intensified after the combine.
