Ourlads' Profile:

2021 Guide: What Ourlads' NFL Scouting Services said about PATRICK JONES II: Pittsburgh, 6044 264 4.85. Two-year starter, Chesapeake, VA. Earned All ACC honors the past two seasons, first-team in 2020. He is tall and fast with average power. Needs further development in the weight room before he can be thrown into every down duty at the next level. With that said, he was a very productive player that totaled 32 tackles for loss and 21 sacks over the past three seasons combined. Has a knack for beating tackles off the edge because of his ability to burst upfield and bend under the blocker’s pads. Relentless in his approach and will make a lot of hustle plays. The team that gets him needs to be patient and really try to develop the power game. If he gets refined and improved in that facet, he can be a true threat. Has the ideal frame for the edge in the NFL. Long and bendy. Holds his weight with ease and will be able to host more bulk after a year or two in a pro strength program. Has an athletic, borderline thin lower half with good flexibility in his ankles. Good speed in space and can chase action down from behind. A rangy defender that makes a lot of plays far away from his starting position. A good hustle player that remains active if initially beat. Will beat blockers on their outside shoulder with his burst and ability to bend. Has developed his rush moves over his career. Fast hands and can adjust late to a blocker. Consistent production and impact on the game. 2020 stats: 44 T, 13 TFL, 9 sacks, 3 PBU, 5 QBH. Third/fourth round. (A-32, H-10, BP-22, 10-1.58).
