26CornerBlitz Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Crystal Ball: Top prospects for 2016 NFL Draft NFLDraftScout.com Crystal Ball: Top prospects for 2016 NFL Draft - By Rob RangWith the 2015 NFL Draft in the rear view mirror, there is no time like the present to break out the crystal ball and take a look at the top potential prospects 12 months from now. An early look at potential standouts for the 2016 NFL Draft.2016 Mock Draft19. Buffalo Bills -- Ohio State QB Cardale Jones: With only three starts under his belt, projecting Jones as a first-round pick may seem ridiculous. But the tools are undeniable, and Rex Ryan has never been one to follow conventional thinking especially with his clubs' struggles at quarterback. Is it ever too early? Maybe it is, but what the hell! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chuck Wagon Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Cardale Jones born in Cleveland . Browns may go after him if he has a good year. Cardale with their WR core is such a waste of talent. Might be the only place he'd be downgrading from OSU's weapons this year. My favorite storyline from this past draft is everyone saying "the Buckeyes might have won the championship, but they had so few guys drafted their talent level clearly isn't close to the SEC".

YoloinOhio Posted May 5, 2015 Share Posted May 5, 2015 Cardale in this offense... Omg.... He's not the fastest guy but he is enormous and hard to bring down as a runner. Throwing 80 yard bombs to Sammy... Cardale with their WR core is such a waste of talent. Might be the only place he'd be downgrading from OSU's weapons this year. My favorite storyline from this past draft is everyone saying "the Buckeyes might have won the championship, but they had so few guys drafted their talent level clearly isn't close to the SEC". when Devin Smith was drafted by the Jets the joke was he's the only WR in the draft who will have a worse QB in the pros than he had in college.

Solomon Grundy Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 First of all, how is he only giving the Bills a 8-8 record when the exam got better everywhere? Secondly, didn't Washington just pick up the option on RG3? Why would they take a QB 1st overall? And last but not least, how in the hell is the Dolphins so much better than the Bills and Jets?

buffaloboyinATL Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 If Cardale is even marginally close to as good as he looked last year, he is a top 5 pick in the next draft due to QB inflation. Anyone have espn insider? Mcshay's 2016 mock is up @ESPN_BigTen: Big Ten dominates McShay's way-too-early 2016 mock draft http://t.co/WqNXLrVXwv Obviously just a wild guess at this point but I would love Oakman from Baylor.

Guess that depends a lot on whether or not Josh Gordon is back next year or not. He instantly makes that WR corps formidable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YoloinOhio Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 (edited) Anyone else think the Cardale Jones hype is premature?yes and no. He's a terrific NFL prospect. He will be drafted high if he plays well (and IF he plays at all) this year. But he's still a bit of a project at the next level. If he's drafted in the top 10 due to his size/arm/ability it's likely he will go to a bad team and start right away. He won't be as NFL ready as others due to the offense he is coming from. He would be better off sitting for a year imo. Other QBs next year like Connor Cook and Cody Kessler from pro style offenses I think i would say go ahead and start them. Actually, the Bills would be a great place for Jones if EJ doesn't turn the corner and they keep Cassel as a bridge. He would fit right in to this offense.

Kirby Jackson Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Anyone else think the Cardale Jones hype is premature? He is Daunte Culpepper or a better running Ben Roethlisberger. His skill set is ideal and he lit up everyone in his way. He is definitely raw but it is not surprising that teams are interested in him. He looks like a 1st round pick to me but as YOLO said would be better served sitting out a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched a little and it's promising, but the lack of sample size is suspect. Measurables are there. Curious about his football IQ but we shall see this season.

I can see why FSU wants him. Winston left after just playing two years and Coker left the program as well. Maguire is the only guy on their roster who has thrown a pass in a game and he didn't look like anything special when he did play. I really don't see him as a guy who translate into much in the NFL game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
