03/15/2011 - TCU Pro day: QB Andy Dalton was the star of the show Friday at Texas Christian University's pro day, but another player who was a hot topic of conversation after the workout in front of representatives from 26 teams was defensive back Colin Jones. Jones, who was second-team All-Mountain West last season, was very good in everything he did Friday, impressing with 4.34 and 4.38 times in the 40-yard dash, a 37-inch vertical jump and a 10-foot-4 inch broad jump. I would describe Jones, who didn't play much before his senior season only starting five games in 2009, as a late bloomer. He reminds me some of Cliff Harris, who went to six Pro Bowls after we signed him with the Cowboys as an undrafted free agent in 1970. Jones really came out of the blue with his performance. He's a very good special teams player, and after today, I could see him getting drafted, probably in the late rounds. Jones (5-11 ??, 201) ??? He ran 4.34 and 4.38 in the 40, with a vertical of 37, a 10-4 broad jump, a 4.09 short shuttle and a 6.69 in the three-cone drill. Jones did 20 bench bench reps of 225 pounds. He was not at the combine. - Gil Brandt, NFL.com

He ran a 4.34! I have to be honest, when I saw his picture, I assumed he'd be slow. I said to myself "Great, another slow ass DB for the Niners, just what we need"

Seems a little like a smaller quicker Lynch with 80 tackles, 3 sacks, 1 INT that was returned for a TD.

Immediate special teams starter, and could be a fun toy on a situational basis in Fangio's defense.

And he really didn't play much "safety". TCU plays a 4-2-5 alignment. So he was down in the box alot.

Hope he turns into a John Lynch for us!!!!

Special teams star, Seely probably asked for this guy

He's fast.

Seems like Harbaugh and Baalke went to TCU pro day to watch Dalton and must have been very impressed with Jones. Those are some outstanding pro day numbers. 4.3 speed and 20 pumps on the bench is crazy

I think this guy is my favorite pick so far.

I like this pick a lot too. TCU had a blazing fast defense and he was one of the guys. I think we need a lot more speed and athleticism in our defensive backfield generally. Both at Safety and CB. So this pick where he was selected is excellent. He has a lot of upside.
