B. Lloyd Possibly Out For The Season

Larry Fitzgerald and Bryant Johnson are intriguing too, but I'm not sure about Matt Jones. He's eerily similar to B Lloyd. He likes the amazing one handed circus grab and scissor arms balls headed right for him. He's got a wealth of potential, but the knock on him in Jax is that he's kind of lackadaisical and unmotivated. From what I've seen, he hasn't really done anything to dispell those grumblings about him.

Have heard the same about Jones. What's compelling about him is he's 6'6", fast, and I think Dave Butz' son is his agent.

But BB is at the top of my wish list

He's definitely an intriguing prospect. If JC had a tall target with speed, it could be a lethal combo, but I'd hate to see Snyder back up the Brinks truck, and then Matt Jones is teetering back and forth from inactivity to 5th string receiver like he is in Jax. I wonder if he'd command a lot of money in the free agent market or if we could get him at a good price. I'd like him as compliment to our receiving corp but not to be the solution to fix our problems there.

What's interesting about Jones' season thus far is he'll be in street clothes one week, and then the next game, he's making a spectacular game winning TD. The way our season's gone so far, it might be worth shelling out $2.5 million for a game winning TD here and there, even if he could potentially be on the bench the next week, stroking his beard. It's definitely better than $2.5 million for a seven yard slant here and there.

For a guy who ran such a sick 40 time pre-draft, and had all the teams salivating over his athleticism, doesn't Jones just look really slow on Sundays? The dude looks like he is running down the field wearing Timberlands. Berrian could be nice, depending on the price. I haven't watched him a whole lot this season, but is he a one trick pony? Deep ball or bust? It might be hard to tell given the QB problems in Chicago. Whatever, that's a conversation to have a couple of months from now I guess.

As for this Sunday, is it time for Gibbs to break out the film of the '87 Skins beating the Tony Dorsett led Cowboys with a bunch of replacement players? I'm not sad to see The Receiver out, but seriously what the hell!!! How many injuries can one team have?
