Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Jones.
Judged on this season alone, Jones graded 39 — a strong campaign that ranks top 22% of the 82 centre-backs in the Championship, on 6 clean sheets and 3.436 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a clear step up on last season (Season 21 → 39). Across the 6 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 53, 41st of 82 of the 82 centre-backs in the Championship. At 28 Jones is in his prime years, and a market index of 40.9 reflects that trajectory.
Read the appearance count in context: Jones missed 22 games through injury and 1 suspension (injury, ankle) out of roughly 49 this season. The 22 he did play is a solid return on the time he was fit, and his ratings are weighted toward those games rather than the ones he sat out injured.
Past his 2022/23 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
3.44 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 6 clean sheets across 22 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (5th of 24) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 1 goal and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 53.3, Jones carries the 41st-highest potential of the centre-backs in the Championship of 82. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (3.44 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).

The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~68), then tapers with age. At 28, Jones sits on 40.9, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Jones's projected Rating — 53.3 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
