Reminds Us Of
Iowa · HS Class of 2017
2020 Draft · Rnd 2 · Pick 54We’ve seen Marvin Jones' body change, as he’s continued to grow and add significant size. The Georgia signee now checks in at 6-foot-5 and around 255 pounds. Epenesa, who was also a five-star prospect in the 2017 cycle was a shade over 6-foot-5 and in the 260’s. Both Jones and Epenesa excel with their ability to bend around the edge as opposed to freaky athleticism.
