Big thing Jones has going for him however is that he was a 34 linebacker at Georgia. He isn't a conversion guy and played with his hand up. Obviously still a learning curve but he should heave a decent understanding of things like positioning.

Well, as soon as Woodley pulls his hamstring and misses half the season, which he does about every 3 seconds, Jones is going to be starting regardless, so I hope he brings his "A" game.

Not really news. Very very rare for rookies to start in LeBeau's defense. However, he'll probably get some playing time to make splash plays, if you will.

Difficult maybe...but not impossible. Go get em Jarvis!

I think we'll see Worilds starting against Tennessee. He has been in the system for a few years and knows the playbook which I think will give him the advantage, but I wouldn't be surprised if we saw Jones starting at one point this season. I think that would be later in the season though and hopefully not because Worilds gets injured, but because Jones would be a better option for the starting role.

I don't know whether to laugh or cry.
