I agree, but mainly because even without Jones, Nashville's D is still top 3. Now they have a true #1 center and they didn't have to make their team worse to do it. Didn't even have to touch prospects or picks either.
Columbus did as well as could have expected given the circumstances. It's better this than a quality for quantity swap, of which I'm sure they had many offers. I doubt there were other offers for players better the Jones in a straight swap.
