We should have already picked this guy up, he would be #1 reciever, at least a compliment to Williams. What a nice target he would be for tony.

I agree with you 100%.But dont tell that to some of these naysayers who say we dont need anyone that's not perfect in life. Jones was on pace to a 80 catch 1000 yard season last year before he was suspended.i have been screaming for us to pick this guy up for month's. now i think it's to late.Jerry the GM blew it again. he has not improved this team this offseason.

I wonder why a good team like Tennessee--who's been throwing to the likes of Kenny Britt, Justin Gage, and Nate Washington all offseason still--can't make up his mind about a #1 WR who's been sitting on the streets for months? Probably because he's not perfect in life.

Stanback I would agree but not Austin......Ogletree is gonna be great in Dallas. Jones slow off the line but once he gets a few strides his top speed is blazing and he's 6'6" with good hands.

And with all that so called speed he has only averaged 13.0 yards per reception in his career. Patrick Crayton averages 14.4 yards per reception for his career and has never had a season where he averaged less than 13.5.

Matt Jones averaged only 11.7 yards per reception last season, which is what most tight ends average. Jason Witten averaged 11.8 last season.

For the guys who want #1 WR Matt Jones, Jerry got rid of future HOFer who is worlds better than Matt Jones, so Roy Williams, Austin & company can develop.

There is no room for Matt Jones on Jerry's new "do it right" squad.
T.O. is not as good as he used to be.

Want to compare their career stats or not?

So if we pick up Matt Jones, we might not go 7-9? Fail! :rolleyes:
Look, i hope im wrong about the 7 and 9. i could be 100%wrong. but that is not the issue right now.the isue is that Jerry Jones(our owner/GM)and that fact that he has done nothing to improve this team this offseason.(and dont tell me a cheap free-agent like Brookings, Sensabaugh and Igor)Jerry has not brought in a bigtime free agent in the last 2 years. and the excuse has always been that we cant because we have to pay D.Ware. he blew it with his special teams draft for back-ups. and he has blown it by not picking up Matt Jones a long time ago.

if Jerry Jones hires Matt Jones, it better be because he needs somebody to man the nacho cheese at one of the consession stands!!!

ESPN reports Matt Jones is going to Tennessee for a workout tomorrow and says Cowboys and Bears still showing interest as well. He'll sign somewhere and be a instant contributor, he was 30th last year among receivers and missed several games. While Tenn. would be a great fit I would rather see Dallas get him and benefit. I really think the Matt has something to prove and will greatly enhance whatever receiving corp he ends up on.

he may sign somewhere, but it aint gonna be here

he's a midling WR at best...nothing more

What team is it that every year makes big splashes in Free Agency and falls flat on their faces?

Help me out here, I know you know who I mean, but I can't remember.

No he is not, but he is still better than Matt Jones.

Only someone with no football knowledge would compare Matt Jones with Owens.

Owens has hall of fame stats but the mind of a 16 year old spoiled teenage girl.

Jones has layman stats with the mind of a frat boy.
