Kelvin Hopkins and Daniel Jones stood out as an odd couple at clinics five summers ago. That observation, though, applied only if viewing the NFL as the end-all-to-be-all for two college-bound high school kids from Charlotte, N.C. Jones has developed into a 6-foot-5 prototype drop-back passer at Duke. He has been projected as high as …
