My Take
Chandler Jones strikes me as the kind of pass rusher whose numbers tell a longer story than his fame suggests. Twelve NFL seasons as a defensive end, drafted in the first round out of Syracuse by the Patriots in 2012, then years with the Cardinals and Raiders, that's serious staying power for such a punishing position. At 196 cm with that long frame, he was built to make life miserable for quarterbacks, and he did it consistently for over a decade. From Rochester, New York, he comes from a notably athletic family. I tend to value durability over flash, and a career this long off the edge earns real respect.
