Sidney Jones looks like a good pick, once healthy | Les Bowen

BEFORE THE second round of the NFL draft began Friday night, experts compiled lists of the most talented players remaining, in the wake of Thursday's first round.

Most of those lists didn't include Sidney Jones, though if you had tried to rank Jones among that group a few months ago, he would have been placed first by pretty much everyone.

Jones' draft experience changed March 11, on the University of Washington's pro day, when his left leg gave way during a coverage drill. Jones left the field on a cart, and he underwent Achilles' tendon repair surgery 11 days later.
