Sure seems that way. This guy wasn't even on the best 10 list of players still remaining.
If Detroit makes this pick, I'd be intrigued and think that they saw something everyone else didn't. But given the track record of Flames scouting, my initial reaction is that they screwed the pooch huge.
Time will tell, and hopefully this kid proves us wrong. But after the long line of Fata, Tzachuk, Erixon and Nemisz, I have doubts that Flames scouting would have picked Jones had he dropped to 6.
