Is Josh Jones just so bad in practice that he doesn't deserve a shot? Maybe if Jaire is getting healthy over the break we can think about moving Tramon to Safety part time?
Thoughts?

Though I still wonder if it might of been better to switch Jones to coverage ILB, because he's got all the physical skills and I don't think it'd take him as long to learn... plus mentally the Safety positions is supposively the hardest position to learn, as they're basically trying to play chess with the entire defensive system and adjusting based on what the offense does.
Eric Reid, someone I thought was a good free safety has only received 48 and 57 grades in two games with Panthers. Granted, profootballfocus isn't the tell all indicator, but they grade everyone the same way and Reid is low.
