02Scheme fit
Ideal system

A traditional 3-4 defense that emphasizes two-gap assignments and heavy blitzing schemes to disrupt offenses.

Stack LBBuck LBMIKE in 3-4
Best role

A two-down thumper against the run early in his career, with potential to develop into a starting 3-4 inside linebacker.

Wrong fit

Any sub-package heavy defense that asks its linebackers to consistently cover slot receivers or play extensive man-to-man coverage.

Jones projects best as a run-stopping inside linebacker in a traditional 3-4 scheme due to his size and strength, but his athletic limitations will be exposed in more pass-centric schemes.
