Turns out, Byron rocketed every pass, even screens to the point where it was very noticeable the guy had absolutely no touch on the ball, which made it difficult for the receivers to make receptions. I fear Jones might have the same problem.

I don't know. Watch at least the first few minutes of that video I posted. His WRs were dropping perfectly thrown touch passes. A few of them simply had no business being dropped.

My issues with Daniel Jones are two-fold... 1. When pressure does come he doesn't always feel it and will get buried. 2. Much like Haskins, he doesn't have a well refined deep game.

Apparently, there are no pro-set ready qbs in this draft capable of starting right away. Lock is so stiff it may take him a while to learn to drop back correctly, but he easily has the best deep arm and that includes deep accuracy. Grier looks like he's been in a spread system forever, but he does have some escapability and he can feel pressure. Jones is fairly mobile and has good footwork, but again he just doesn't have that eye in the back of his head. Haskins is the one guy that just looks comfortable in the pocket and has very impressive footwork. He's been working out of a shotgun spread system just like everyone else, but I'm hoping his lack of experience here is a benefit allowing him to part from that system more easily while learning the pro set.
