I hatelove this game
Jade actually does have great footsies. Not the best but I think they could be the best or rival them. Nobody has more range than she does...nobody

Sure she has range, but she hardly puts herself in a good position even if she lands the damage. Its back to square 1, and she has no clear advantage over anybody else anywhere on the screen, if she misses she's open for so long as well, really bad recovery on most things but U3 and maybe b32

Unfortunately I'm being punished with a full combo by jumping over after a whiffed b32 from time to time, although it really has to be anticipated. U3 is can also punished by full combo on whiff. Sad... But, if the damage is landed, she can put the opponent where she wants (fullscreen, midscreen (shadowkick/U3/staffoverhead distance), out of poke distance (df2/b2/b3/4/b4 distance), in poke distance).

I also say Subzero. From a strictly footsie point of view, Sub breaks the rules of footsies because he can essentially be in two places at once because of the ice clone. Worse yet, he makes other footsie characters afraid to play footsies with him. They either want to be far far away chucking things at him, or right on top of him rushing him down, but sweep distance to half screen? No one wants to fight Subzero from there.
