Alabama quarterback Mac Jones’ NFL stock is reportedly skyrocketing.
According to Todd McShay, Jones’ value is elevating as we near the end of the college football season, and “he’s pulling a Joe Burrow.” (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)

Burrow famously wasn’t a big deal before his senior season at LSU, and then went first overall in the 2020 NFL draft.

Mac Jones is moving up @McShay13‘s draft board very quickly ????
“Mac Jones is coming in and he’s pulling a Joe Burrow. I’m not saying he’s going to be No. 1 overall, there’s no chance. … But he’s gone from off the radar to … he’s been on fire this year!” pic.twitter.com/bClFUa8VJq

I’ll be the first to admit that Jones has blown me away this season. I didn’t really think he’d be this good at all.
I thought Jones would be a solid starter for the Crimson Tide, and I reasonably assumed that they’d win a ton of games with him.

In reality, Nick Saban’s starting quarterback has balled out this season and has dominated every step of the way.
Alabama is currently 6-0, and Jones’ play is a major reason why. He’s proven that he’s 100% a legit NFL prospect.
He might be a guaranteed starter at the next level, but there’s no doubt that Jones will get drafted after what we’ve seen out of him this season.

It should be a ton of fun to see what Jones can do down the rest of the stretch. He’s clearly off to a very hot start.
