Pro
2007: Had 47 catches for 676 yards was second in the NFC to Detroit’s Calvin Johnson (48-756), and third overall in the league for receptions by a rookie receiver. ... Kansas City’s Dwayne Bowe led all rookie receivers with 70 catches for 995 yards. ... Jones played in all 18 games for the Packers with 11 total starts, complete with peaks and valleys. ... Confidence was shaken and he was benched early on in Green Bay’s Oct. 7 loss to the Chicago Bears for fumbling the ball away twice. But two games later, he caught a long pass from Brett Favre for a 79-yard touchdown in an MNF overtime win against the Denver Broncos. It was his second and final touchdown of the season. ... A California native, Jones struggled in cold weather games. Had four catches in four games in the month of December. After catching three passes for 42 yards on a snowy evening in Green Bay’s NFC Divisional playoff win over Seattle, he was held without a catch in the NFC Championship game on a bitter cold night eight days later at Lambeau Field. ... Selected in third round (78th overall) of NFL draft by Packers on April 28.
College
Three-year starter awarded All-Conference honors as a senior after
topping the team with receiving numbers of 70/893/10 as well as
averaging 11 yards on 11 punt returns. Totaled 30 receptions as a
junior.
Pos:
Nice-sized wide out coming off a tremendous senior campaign. Quick
in all aspects of his game, displaying a lot of natural skill. Uses
his frame to shield away defenders, adjusts to the errant throw and
looks the ball into his hands. Displays strong hands and the ability
to pull the fastball from the air. Consistently comes back to the ball
making himself an available target. Immediately transitions from
making the reception to running after the catch.
Neg:
Marginal playing speed and is not a deep threat. Just average
production until his senior campaign. |
