This year I’ve got a few, but I’m risking it all for a cornerback that has frustrated the Philadelphia faithful with a painfully slow start to his career. That camp crush is Sidney Jones and I’m officially leading the hype train.Obviously I should be using the qualifier “if healthy”, but forget all that. I can predict injuries with the accuracy akin to my jump shot, which is non-existent. Also, only cowards hedge, so I won’t be giving myself any outs.It’s good to know that I’m not the only one pounding the table for Jones. Ian Wharton recently dialed in on seven “up-and-coming” cornerbacks. The list includes some personal favorites of mine like Taron Johnson (Buffalo Bills) and J.C. Jackson (New England Patriots). It also includes one from the Philadelphia Eagles; that being the aforementioned Sidney Jones.Now, I’ve been down this road before. Early in the 2018 season Brandon Graham Jersey , Jones came flying out of the gate with three stellar performances that highlighted his knack for making plays. According to PFF, in that stretch he allowed 8 receptions (23rd), 39 yards (6th), 0.41 yards per coverage snap (7th), with a 62.2 QB Rating when targeted (15th). After that stretch is when things fell apart, in part due to a lingering hamstring injury.When asked about Jones earlier this week, defensive coordinator Jim Schwartz let us know he didn’t forget what healthy Sidney brings to the table.I’m going to assume the play below is what Schwartz is referring to, which gained national attention and praise from Malcolm Jenkins on Twitter.Schwartz also noted an “expensive start-up cost” with Jones as the Eagles have been uber-patient with his development. To justify that cost, Jones is going to have to stay available and play up to his potential. Even if he is available http://www.eagleslockerroom.com/authentic-dallas-goedert-jersey , he can’t afford to suffer nagging injuries that impact his play like they did when he could barely run full speed against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 14 last year. Granted, with a healthier defensive backfield he likely doesn’t have to suit up for that game but it points to a bigger problem about his contributions to this point.Jones is garnering praise from the coaches and media for his standout camp to this point. In the first week practices, he’s racked up several pass breakups and a few interceptions. He’s also admittedly been burned by DeSean Jackson, but the list of defenders that’s happened to grows by the day. Overall it’s an encouraging sign for Jones, but he’ll still have plenty of doubters regarding his ability to stay healthy and play at a high level. I’m not among them. Nick Foles finally has a team that believes in him as its franchise quarterback, and he’s not going to take that lightly.Foles, who signed with the Jaguars this offseason, is working so hard in training camp that he chose to do wind sprints all by himself after practice on Monday, when the heat index in Jacksonville was 102. According to the Womens Rodney McLeod Jersey , Foles was outside running 10 sprints of 50 yards each after his teammates had all gone inside to the air-conditioned facility. The only teammate who saw Foles do it was Calais Campbell, who stayed outside to conduct an interview and described Foles’ approach in one word: “Leadership.”Although he’s been both a Pro Bowler and a Super Bowl MVP, Foles entered the seasons when he received both of those honors as a backup. This year he’s the entrenched starter, and he says he’s taking it upon himself to shape the culture in Jacksonville.“We’re building it. The culture’s very young. It’s starting. We’re getting there. We’re not there; we want to grow closer every day,” Foles said.Whether Foles can be a difference-maker in Jacksonville remains to be seen, but he’s making it clear that no one is going to outwork him.
