[QUOTE="Techster, post: 936649, member: 360"] Shawn Jones is a huge reason why I'm a GT fan today (along with Kenny Anderson). I'm surprised Jones isn't in the GA Sports HOF already TBH. There's a reason why I chose him as my avatar. Jones was before his time. A lot of football fans in this day and age forget that if a college QB could run for positive yardage, they were automatically labeled an "athletic QB". Jones was one of those QBs, and no one in the NFL gave him a shot at QB. Tony Dungy once said on TV that one of the best QB prospects he saw but was never given a chance at QB in the NFL was Shawn Jones. The Vikings tried him out at DB even though he never played a snap of DB for GT. Jones would have thrived in this era of spread offenses and the premium they put on dual threat QBs. [/QUOTE]
