The 2025 NFL Draft is upon us, and so is your need to be prepared for all of tomorrow’s stars. Dive into our spotlight on Emery Jones, featuring his scouting report, strengths and weaknesses, his recent draft projection, and where all the experts predict he could land.
Emery Jones’ NFL Draft Scouting Report
In a league desperate for offensive line help, Emery Jones is an intriguing prospect. A three-year starter in LSU’s pass-heavy offense, he brings elite size, strength, and power but is an average athlete overall. As a run blocker, Jones is a true mauler who thrives on physicality.
He fires off the ball with aggression, generating movement at the line of scrimmage. His strong hands allow him to latch onto defenders and control engagements, particularly in man-blocking schemes.
However, Jones’ balance and flexibility are concerns. He often plays too far over his toes, causing him to fall off blocks. He also struggles in space, making second-level blocking a challenge.
In pass protection, Jones’ size and length are his best assets. His powerful punch can disrupt rushers early in the rep, and his ability to anchor makes him tough to beat with power. His ceiling is uncertain, but he can be an above-average right tackle or guard.
Jonah Savaiinaea’s NFL Draft Projection
In CSN’s 7-Round 2025 NFL Mock Draft from April 12, Jones landed in Round 3 with the 70th overall pick. James Fragoza has this to say:
Emery Jones is a bad man on the outside, and that’s exactly what the Jaguars need to keep Trevor Lawrence upright and provide space in the ground game.
And in CSN’s recent 3-Round 2025 NFL Mock Draft, Brian Burden had this to say about Jones’ selection to the Indianapolis Colts in Round 3 with the 80th pick:
Much of the spotlight went to Campbell, but Jones, who started 36 of 38 games at right tackle, was just as critical for the Tigers, who put up 40 points and 475 yards per game in his career.
He allowed just one sack while matching up against the SEC’s best and earned All-Conference honors the last two years after being named a Freshman All-America in 2022.
