Saints 2016 NFL Draft Profile: Chris Jones

The Mississippi State Bulldog was an early entrant to the NFL Draft, and is a key piece to the deepest defensive line class in recent memory. He’s got a rare combination of size and ability that could take the league by storm.

Measurables:

  • Height: 6-foot-6
  • Weight: 310 pounds
  • Arm length: 34 1/2 inches
  • Hands: 10 3/4 inches

As you can see, Chris Jones is a large human being. He’s got one of the broadest wingspans in the draft (seven feet between his fingertips) and the height to match; he can disrupt passes thrown as high as eleven feet off the ground.
