Could Jones become a version of Cam

greek13 : 9/21/2020 6:43 pm
I know he isn’t the exact athlete and a about 25lbs lighter. He can run, he is strong, has a strong arm. That is my personal wish for the Giants.
I'd rather he become a version of Eli or Favre

and never miss any games due to injury.
You gloss over 25 pounds like it's nothing

one of the things Cam did so well is he could get you the tough yards even if he meant he would take a hit.

No way in hell you want Daniel Jones to be that player as even with that 25 pounds extra it beat Cam down pretty quickly on a career scale.
I didn’t say the exact same thing

I didn’t say the exact same thing. He will continue to fill out. It will be interesting to see how he is used as the Oline gets better. I am willing to project that he will be used in the goal line game plan in a similar way as To how Cam was last night.

Exactly. Running quarterbacks are fun, but even the best built ones eventually break down.

The Pats are going to have to find a way to get tough yards without using Cam every time or he's going to miss time. I think after Sunday's outburst they might be OK with him passing more.
Athleticism and Body Type is more like Aaron Rodgers...

jones like Cam and you'll be looking at a guy with the injury history of Carson Wentz shortly.
Cam is built like a LBer

and can take a hit. In fact he breaks tackles. DJ, although he can run, is not going to bowl anybody over. I do think he needs to use his legs more and in fact should have some planned runs in the scheme without Barkley.

I think it's a bad comp since arm talent is a big part of it and Jones isn't in Rodgers' universe I'm terms of arm talent. Jones is more like Ostweiler
Nothing
