I meant for FSU.  I attended every home game and he was a non-factor.

Bears | URFA T. Jones Expected to be Added - from www.KFFL.com

Mon, 25 Apr 2005 12:10:45 -0700

 

Brad Biggs, of the Chicago Sun-Times, reports the Chicago Bears are expected to sign undrafted rookie free agent PK Tyler Jones (Boise State).

 

YES!!!

Come in to camp and kick Edingers ass.

I had this guy as the 3rd K behind the two B10 guys.

The Bears also signed Jonathan Jackson

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jonathan Jackson DE/OLB Oklahoma

Strengths

There is no other player quicker off the line in this draft than Jonathan. He is a pass-rushing demon. In spite of his size he was used as a pass-rusher and also did a lot of dropping off the line of scrimmage in pass coverage. Jonathan uses good leverage against the larger OT’s and is excellent in pursuit. He shows excellent all around athletic abilities and will be an excellent addition to an NFL team.

 

 

 

Needs to Improve

Jonathan will have to be moved to the linebacker position, so that will affect his draft status. I have no doubt he will become an impact LB at the next level similar to Teddy Bruschi.

 

 

 

Bottom Line

He is smart, quick and a leader; he won’t settle at just playing in the NFL. He will want to start and impact, yet he understands the meaning of being team player. You are making a big mistake if you pass on this kid on the 2nd day of this draft and some might suggest he is a first day pick. He will be a core player for the team that drafts him and a fan favorite in a year or two. Draft him, then work him at the LB position in a 3/4 or a 4/3 and you will not be sorry. He is relentless in his pursuit of the QB or the RB because he has excellent anticipation, instincts and change of direction skills. He is a kid that you will have to have on your team to get to the playoffs and Super Bowl. Don’t be fooled by his size and the position he plays or his lack of pure forty speed. Open up your mind and welcome a core player to your team.

IIRC, he was first team all Big XII this year.

Willie, what's the source of the Jackson profile? Thanks in advance.

I saw it posted on another board, I think it's from a member area so I don't have a direct link

This guy can boot the hell out of the ball.

 

Besides, I love Bosie State Broncos. Any team that plays on blue turf is fine by me.

Talk about kickers, I think the Bears have the rights to Nick Setta, former ND kicker. This guy is solid, and I hope he gets his shot w/the Bears because he's a class guy and a Illinois native. (I think he kicked for NFL Europe last year)

Yeah, I think I read that he missed 2 kicks out of 6 -- each one being 20-some yard kicks. So just keep taking delay of game penalties until you've got a kick of 30 yards+, and he should be fine. :D
