      I like the idea of Martin Rucker out wide on 3rd downs, he is already on the roster and is a big guy. The only thing is, he is still an unkown. It was more important to play Dinkins last year I guess.

        JJ's replacement?

        They aren't anything alike except for the fact they're both white dudes.

        6'5" and possesion receiver. Sounds similar.

          But it isn't. Jones is a guy with immense potential who's been held back by inconsistent hands, a poor work ethic, and an affinity for white powder. Jurevicius is a slow, sure-handed receiver who's a very good influence in the locker room.

          Jones actually had a very good year last year, but he's too lazy and legally-challenged to take a risk on.

              I would take a shot at Jones. He has potential to be a good player and is young enough to help in few years

                I dont care about his off field "habits" whether its drinking beer, smoking, coke whatever as long as he is good in the lockerroom and in practice. Get real judging players morality and usage is laughable.

                This is a completely merc type industry and it is still a GAME not applying for the role of a preacher.

                I love this guy and think it is EXACTLY what we need, great hands, good speed and big.

                  i watched him all through college as a Razorback fan, and he has the talent and raw ability to play any position, he was starting to break out last season as a reciever, keep in mind this wasnt his college role. As far as his character, he has been in some bad things lately, however, he never was in much of anything as a college player, and the last thing was really just a stupid probation violation. The coke is obviously very bad and we dont need someone on this team that is having to deal with that type of addiction, but I would love to see us pick him up. He will be going cheap and probably for a 1 year deal. I say lets go after him, see what he has and if he is going to be committed to football. As far as getting fired up as a player and showing emotion, this isnt your guy for that, he will break huge plays but he barely ever shows emotion..

                    Bring him in now!

                    Oh, heres some highlights...

                    I question how many years he has... being a big lanky guy getting hit that hard, that many times. I guess he led the team in receptions.

                        LOL you said the only thing they had in common was being white. That was incorrect, they both are 6'5" and possesion receivers. They may stop being similar after that but that does not mean I was wrong. It means you were.

                        We need a stop gap for next year and Matt Jones could be the guy to fill that role. If we throw BQ into the starting role only having 1 receiver to throw to we are guarenteing his failure. We need to do something.

                        With Jones we are talking about a parole violation for drinking beer not doing coke again. A freash start maybe what he needs, everybody deserves a second chance. He could end up being a pleasent suprise and if not, the guy we draft this year has one year of experince and can step into the 2nd receiver role in 2010.

                          We might have to wait until he gets out of jail and then serves his suspension the league will give him. After that, he should be just fine. He was already in the league substance abuse program so the this time is an automatic 4 game suspension.

                          I really don't see a whole lot of teams lining up to give this guy a contract.

                              You are right. Jones never showed me the guts to go inside and make the tough catches.
