I think the gap between the QBs in any and class and year as wide as most scouts/people think because the QB position is one the most poor evaluated and coached and dependent positions in football.

But, I don't consider Foles in the second tier of QBs more like 3rd tier.
I think Griffin and Luck are the class of this draft.
Then Jones, Tannehill and Barkey round the rest of the top.
I also like Russell Wilson but he's a shrimp.

I think the perception that Jones stock has fallen is merely perception because prospects are judged more on skillset then anything else, Jones skillset didn't decrease his best WR got hurt.
Take away Blackmon or Wright or Coby Fleener from any of the top guys and there will be a drop in their production/performance but not their skillset.
