Lawrence on D. Jones

armstead98 : 6:56 am
Q: What can you tell us about Daniel Jones?
A: I like him a lot. Playing against him when we played Duke, I gained a lot of respect for him. He did not quit and he’s deceptively fast. His arm is really accurate, I feel like a lot of his balls were dropped so his stats weren’t really there watching film, but I think he’s really special.
That's Dexter Lawrence

From his transcript after the draft posted by Eric
Not really expecting him to say  
anything else about a now teammate.
Kudos to Dexter for handling the question deftly.  
I guess he could have said, "Who? Oh, that guy. Yeah, he played OK for a couple of series. Then we punched him in the mouth a few times, and he folded like Coach Venables said he would."

Anyway, good answer. Probably doesn't tell us much about Jones, but it's a positive sign for Lawrence's ability to handle some of our more obnoxious beat reporters.
He would be ridiculed if he said anything different

Hoping for the best though.

He didn't have to say

He's really special.

That's the part that jumped out to me. He went above and beyond what he had to say.
