ITHACA, N.Y. - The majority of NFL Draft experts expect former Syracuse University defensive end and Endicott native Chandler Jones to be called in the first round tonight, and YNN is at Jones' draft party to get his reaction if and when it happens.

Jones' older brother and UFC light heavyweight champion Jon is hosting the event at his home in Ithaca. Prior to Chandler's arrival Jon spoke with our Chris Whalen about what advice he's given his younger brother in advance of him becoming a professional athlete.

Upon being drafted Chandler will become the second member of his family to play in the NFL along with another older brother, Arthur, who also played at Syracuse and is currently a defensive tackle with the Baltimore Ravens.
