Calling Gil Brandt a legend is hardly an understatement. He was Vice President of player personnel for the Dallas Cowboys for nearly 30 years and had a huge hand in that franchise becoming iconic.

So when he says this about Daniel Jones people are going to listen: “I. Love. Dan Jones. I have to say this carefully: When you watch him and you go back (20) years and watch Peyton Manning, you are watching the same guy.

”He’s athletic. He doesn’t have a rocket for an arm, but neither did Peyton. Very smart.”

Wow. That might actually move Jones up a spot or two.
