Jones was one of those combine guys who shot up draft boards based more on potential than anything else. Although he didn't even play WR in college, his unusual speed and leaping ability caused some to speculate that he might be worth a gamble with a third round pick. This cacophony grew to a fever pitch, and he ended up being taken, shockingly I thought at the time, in the first round.

All that being said, he has shown some promise, but not enough to justify the headache that comes with his issues.
