I just don't understand what people see in Jumpball Jesus. He is tall and can probably jump but so can a million other people at home watching football.
I hope he works out but I'm not going to get my hopes up over a camp scrub, I did with Darnarian McCants, Tydus Winans, Leslie Sheppard, Jacques Green and the legendary Taylor Jacobs...

I can't speak for anyone else but I can tell you what I see in him. A player who makes plays in GAMES, not just practice. They may have only been preseason games but that's all he's been called on and he's done better than MK or DT in them. I see a young guy making blocks down field his first year in the league. I also see a guy "getting it" a lot sooner than MK or DT have done. He has also "earned" his chance, not by his draft status, but by his work. All you can do is give the guy a chance and see how he does. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. If he were a high draft pick he'd probably already be playing.
