I think predicting what he's going to do is a bit premature before we see who they bring in from the draft. Assuming they get a LT and a nice weapon or two I do think he's in for a big year. But he's definitely going to need that protection to be there on his blindside as well as more threat across the middle. If the blindside isn't there then that will eat another player in the form of a TE or RB chipping or helping him out. If the passing game threats don't improve it will be easier for teams to focus an excellent run game. I think Ballard gets this done but really need to see what Wentz is going to have around him. Current passing game threats probably aren't good enough for a top statistical season. -

I think it's Jones for a couple reasons. First, the 9ers don't need to play mind games here. Smoke screen has zero purpose. Top two QBs should be Lawrence then Wilson. If one of those two fall the 9ers win the lottery. Second Jones is a very good pocket QB who is more advanced than usual due to the offense at Bama and his talents of reading quickly and making good decisions. Those talents are not in vogue in the media but look how effective good pocket QBs still are in the playoffs. Getting to the level of mastery needed to be a difference maker from the pocket is a long road, but if you hit on one of those guys you get a long career and a ton of wins from him. So you sacrifice the highlight plays big deal. Supply and demand are so out of whack with QBs in fact that the NFL has started to do what college teams were forced to do by the NFL drafting their QBs every year: build around athleticism. But that doesn't mean you still can't win with a pocket QB. I wouldn't be too quick to call the 9ers crazy here. If they hit on Jones they'll look like geniuses for taking a guy who is an excellent QB. If not they'll be mocked in the media for reaching. Bottom line is whether the guy fits your system and what you want from the QB position, and whether he's a top competitor IMO. -

Jones gets far too much hate here. He isn't gonna blow teams away but it is possible to have success from the pocket. -
