First off--I was very impressed overall with Jones. I think he has the size/arm and smarts to be a star in the league.

Secondly, as it relates to Book and ND--his pocket presence is something Book could learn from.

Numerous times Jones had major pressure or the pocket collapsing around him.
He stood tall and stepped up in the pocket many times,eluding the rush, and threw accurate darts downfield.

Book,possibly because he is short,seems to leave the pocket all too quick instead of stepping up or to the side to deliver the pass.

I know that Jones got good coaching from Cutcliffe at Duke. I'm not so sure Book is getting the same coaching at ND. If he is,he is slow to learn.
