He isn't worth the headache. His only value comes in the return game, and you can draft someone that can pull double duty and give you better depth. The WR game never clicked for him. He just isn't good.
You mean other than 64 kicks he returned between 2007-2010? Wexler's being a smidge disingenious with the numbers, IMO; Jones has three 105+-yard KRs with the Ravens, including two 108-yarders. While that's remarkably impressive; it's also remarkably rare. There have only been seven 108+-yard KRs in NFL history*. His other 98 returns with Baltimore netted a 27-yard average. * I don't want to diminish Jones here too much because he also has a THIRD 108-yard KR from the SB, of course. Seven all-time, and the dude has three of them. That's insane and speaks to him being very good at returning kicks. But given KORs are inherently smaller sample sizes, a long one will skew the numbers. Case in point, Cordarrelle Patterson owns the longest KR in NFL history (109 yards) and, wouldn't you know it, he averaged 32.4/KR that year. No 100+-yard KRs this year and he drops to 25.
We should sign him and keep him in camp right until the very last minute before the season starts. Then cut him after teams have already formed their rosters for the start of the season.
Again, people are also forgetting that they acquired an "at-the-time elite" kick returner in Daniel Manning, who was an instant upgrade from Jones at kick returning (and also allowed him to focus more on being the #2 WR along with being the full-time punt returner... which unfortunately contributed to the playoff loss). Wexler should have accounted for that when he sent off his tweet. Its not like the Texans replaced him with somebody "worse".
Media with ultimately empty rhetoric designed expressly to whip the LCD into a fevor drive me crazy. Wexler seems like a generally smart guy. But his implication here is pretty clear: Jones was better after he left the Texans - let's drop-kick the Texans for their incompetence! He totaled three 105+yard regualr season KRs - impressive, sure. Also lucky and random. Beyond that, he certainly wasn't better a better WR; in fact, he regressed significantly, and while he was a good KR, it's not like they let a consistently great game-breaker go. It's just incredibly disingenious, IMO.
