Matt Jones Likely Done in Jacksonville

I like this idea. From what I have heard is that Del Rio and Garrard are not Matt Jones fans becasue he was a Leftwich supporter, and he should have been. Leftwich used him more. If you go back and look at the numbers he did better when Leftwich was the QB. I think this kid is still young, and has plenty of potential. Brees would love a big target like Matt Jones, plus with his experience at QB Payton could have more opportunities to throw in some trick plays. I see it being a perfect fit if we can work it out. He'll most likely get cut eventually, but I wouldn't be against trading a 6th or 7th rounder for him, or maybe even Devery. We know Dev can't catch; why not give someone else a chance. As bad as Devery is I still think he's better than Troy Williamson, who the Jags traded for earlier this offseason.

No I'd wait till he's cut. Definately not trade Devery for him. You can say he can't catch but he can... just not consistant. He's a big play kind of weapon that gives us a potential at a big play from time to time so I don't see Matt Jones filling his shoes. Devery fits more of a role that we need that Jones.
