The Green Bay Packers may consider trading WR James Jones at some point if a serious need at another position develops.

GB has a lot of depth at the WR position, Jones could be a starter on another team.

Could be a nice add for the Cowboys.

Thoughts?
 
The main play I remember is that bobbled pass in the Super Bowl that might have expanded Green Bay's lead over Pittsburgh to 28-10.

Yeah a team who has no number 1 or 2. He's a number 3

He can't catch.

Two years ago (2010) he had a ton of drops. Last year he had a pretty good year as the Packers #3/#4 WR and caught 38 for 635 yards and 7 TDs.

There has been a school of thought about James Jones that he has 1000 yard potential -- he just has never been good enough to beat our Jennings/Driver and later Jennings/Nelson for a starting WR spot.

Now the Packers want to move Randall Cobb up to that #3 spot and having James Jones on the roster is going to make it difficult.
 
Meh...I wouldn't trade for the guy. I'd rather wait and see what develops in training camp first, and if none of what we have looks good enough to be the #3, THEN...MAYBE start looking for a vet, though I don't even see that happening. I think one of the guys in camp is going to surprise everyone.
 
You guys are gonna be really disappointed when a WR is not picked up until Week 2 at the earliest.

I am not
 
In all honesty, we are good enough at WR so long as Dez and Miles are healthy. With Witten as the #3 option and both Felix and Murray as excellent WRs out of the backfield I'm not sure there are many passes to distribute to the #3 WR. That position should be viewed as one for a developmental guy. If no one steps up you can sign a vet in week two to try and fill the void.

Our biggest problems are the quality of our interior OL and lack of a pass rusher to play opposite Ware. If we could settle those questions we are probably as good as any team out there.
 
Trade no but if he is cut you would at least think about it my guess is Houston would be all over him if he is cut they have bigger wr needs than us.

The guy has mediocre hands drops way to many easy catches but will nab a niffty one as well. The biggest knock on him is he does not have great hands.
 
Hell YES! Love this guy. I was stunned GB resigned him a few years ago when he was a free agent because they had so much depth at that point. After they drafted Cobb there is no room for Jones on that team. I would gladly give up a 4th or 5th rounder for him.

I like James Jones, but not enough to trade anything for him. I don't believe we will sign or trade for any WR. We're going to go with the corps we have now.

Ask me again in about 5 weeks.

We need to evaluate what we have first.
 
If his former WR Coach wants him in Dallas........I am all for it. Late round pick or wait until/if they release him and Jimmy Robinson stamps him.......then I am on board.
