I know the Bengals shifted more to a gap scheme last year, but it seems to change about every year with Pollack (because nothing seems to work very well?), so I never know if he's going to go back more to wide zone or not. And as I said, I don't like his slow feet, although he was able to make due in college because of his excellent size and length to compensate.
Yes, Jones success is going to be very scheme dependent in this league. And that is a bad thing because it is foolhardy to believe that an offense can get be sustainably successful by only running one type of scheme or playset. (remember when the wildcat rushing attack was the greatest thing ever, for about 6 games one season..) Having a diverse set of physical tools is paramount for an OL to enable an offense to have continued success in this day and age.
