Quote:KYJaggy would've drafted Matt Jones in the top 5 with the kind of combine he had. Imagine his SPARQ scores

 

It was a stupid move when you consider that multiple reports questioned his desire and heart for football. And it was even more aggravating that year because if they wanted a big, physical and fast receiver they could have drafted Vincent Jackson instead who was already a receiver comfortable at this position. Not a project player.

 

12 years later we can clearly see that would have been the better decision at the time. Jackson had 20 pounds on Jones and ran a 4.4 Vs. Jones's 4.3. Not a huge difference. And, again, a natural receiver coming out of college. 4.4 speed is considered elite. Guys like Julio Jones & Odell Beckham Jr. run that.
