Why don't we hear more about work ethic from reporters?

they're too lazy

Yes, now be quiet about it and don't tell anyone else.

I love this schtick.

It took 6 years to make someone laugh.

Mike Mayock retold the story of former first-round flop Matt Jones' Senior Bowl week in 2005 during this week's NFL Network coverage in Mobile, insisting Jones' practice habits "screamed buyer beware."

During a relatively slow week for NFL news, we found this story relevant as the Senior Bowl winds down. "I gotta be honest with ya," Mayock said. "I was on the field that year and I followed him from drill to drill the entire week, because there was such a buzz about him. He was last in every line. He didn't seem like he cared a whole lot. ... To me, it was like buyer beware. It screamed buyer beware. And unfortunately for the Jags, they bought it." Jones retired from football after failing to make the Bengals in 2010.

Did Mayock even say a word about this back then?

Why the H### bump six year old threads. If you want to make a point on what to look for in hyped athletes, make a new thread if there isn't one already

why is making a new thread better? there is already content we can look back on in this one

Because we sure as #### don't need to be discussing Matt Jones

I miss Matt Jones. He was a cornerstone of my Madden fantasy draft franchises for years. I'd always pump him up to 94/95 or so just thru usage.

seems odd that he never got a shot to play anywhere.. CFL, Arena, Flag Football America, NFL Europe anything

He was on my first year dynasty team and I hung onto him too long. I learned the lesson with him that physical skills do not always translate to on field or fantasy value.

When I saw this thread at the top of page 1, I thought for sure he was dead.
