Kurt Warner not completely sold on Duke quarterback Daniel Jones

NASHVILLE, Tenn. _ The Giants have done extensive scouting of Duke quarterback Daniel Jones, who might very well become the heir apparent to Eli Manning. But Hall of Fame quarterback Kurt Warner isn't completely sold on whether Jones can become a championship quarterback in the NFL.

"The thing with Daniel to me is that he played in a great system, so you know he understands football," Warner said at an NFL Network press briefing Wednesday afternoon in advance of Thursday's start to the draft. "He played a lot of games, so you know what he brings to the table there. But over that four years, there are some limitations physically. That, to me, is the only question I have with Daniel: Is that something that can get better?"

Bottom line for Warner: Can Jones get the job done when things break down around him? The former Rams, Giants and Cardinals quarterback isn't so sure.
