Jones, now a four-year starter, was a consensus first-team All-American linebacker and named the Big Ten Defensive Player of the Year. He led the Big Ten in tackles and posted nine sacks. He was named the league’s preseason Defensive Player of the Year this summer.
Like many players of his caliber, Jones was evaluated as a potential draft pick.
“I received a third-round grade,” he said. “I wasn’t exactly happy about that. I still respect it, and I felt like they gave me some respect.”
Jones, who’s listed at 6-foot-1 and 240 pounds, guesses that it was his size that could have hurt him in the evaluation process. He figures his performance this year will propel him to a higher grade in post-season workouts.
