NFL or the Players wanted to retain the 2010 rules for 2011 while they continue to hammer out a new deal. I think it was the Players who wanted it, but the Owners felt they were being shafted and thus opted out of the "current" CBA.

First of all, in the article he thinks of himself as a starter - and will want starter money with his next contract (that isn't going to happen). Secondly, I don't think Jones has outplayed Jorde Nelson in any way. When DD retires, Nelson will be our #2. The third thing is the drafting of Cobb which gives us some dynamics that Jones doesn't. And the fourth reason I think Jones is gone is the huge future money that will be going to guys like Raji, Matthews, Finley, Sitton, Shields and possibly Mike Neal when he puts it all together.

The receiving corp is our bread and butter no doubt, but I don't think we've ever had a problem in the modern era of replacing any of these guys - especially now when we have such a marksman at QB. I think James Jones has a great future ahead of him, but I would be shocked if it was in Green Bay.

I was harsh on Jordy last year. I was wrong, and I'm glad I was wrong. :)
