    Offensive tackle Marcel Jones' size gets your attention. He's 6-foot-8 and 300 pounds, according to Reynaldo Peru, athletic director at Trevor G. Browne High in Phoenix.

    Jones' athleticism and mobility also are impressive, said Peru, a defensive lineman at Arizona State from 1977-81.

    "All I can see is him getting bigger and stronger," Peru said. "I think he has an opportunity to be an impact player. He has a great attitude. He's very respectful of people. You won't find a young man with better character. He just comes in and does his business."
