It's hard to hear what Jones said.......because we see guys play through pain. But if he's NOT going to give 100% out there, i'd rather have him sit.

He didn't say he wasn't going to GIVE 100%, he said that he might not BE 100%. Big difference. Players don't usually talk about injuries in such a straightforward way, but I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt on this one because he's been a high-effort guy ever since he's been drafted. I thought he was headed for a breakout season before the injury, and if he gets healthy soon, he could still put up some big numbers.
I like Jordy too, but he's a work in progress. I think he will go back to the #5 spot when James Jones and Ruvell Martin get healthy, but he's the kind of player who could make a big leap next year.
