So I will be watching Jones with a good deal of interest to find out just what TT saw in him. I haven't seen any high-lights on him but the one common denominater of opinions has been..."he will fight for the ball." That in itself sounds fine IF he is good enough to get separation by reading defenses and reacting accordingly. That's where he will succeed or fail. Actually, I don't see that "fight for the ball" all that often. A WR is either open for a catch or not. Can he get off the line or will he get snarled up with a defender? Can he get YAC? Guess we'll be forced to wait for the pre-season to get some answers.</p></blockquote><p></p>
