To be honest id take Steve Breaston over Jones.

Breaston put up 1,000 yards last year on 77 catches while averaging 13.1 YPC.

In James Jones 2 years he hasnt put up 77 catches (67) or 1000 yards. (950)

They both play the same position and Breaston topped Jones career numbers in one season. To take Jones over Breaston is just pure homerism.

Quick Edit: Jones has started more games then Breaston as well. 11 to 9

Don't forget that Breaston was also #2 for 4 Games last year, when Boldin was out. That will bring up anybodies stats. I will not take anything away from him, though, definitely a good WR, and it would probably be a toss up between them in a head to head competition.

The bolded part would give the nod to Breaston in my mind cuz he stepped right in as a number 2 with np .

Still a toss up IMO. Just watching Jones and Nelson after Jennings went down, I have no doubt that either of them could step in as #2 without a hitch.

In the end, I think Arizona really has 2 #1 WR (Fitz & Bolding) and a #2 Breaston. While GB has 1 #1 (Jennings) and 3 #2 (Driver, Jones, Nelson) right now.

I would say the Chargers' CB's are good or as good as the Packs CB's however their WR are not up to par, Cromartie/Jammer and Woodson/Harris pretty good combos both pairs are physical and like to play bump & run their WR's though? i dunno about that

they have Vincent Jackson/Chambers/Floyd on Jennings/Driver/Jones i would take the Packs WR all day

I just don't think you can equate Jones and Nelson with Driver at this point in time.
They both have alot more to prove to me.

Yea i think you guys are overrating Nelson and Jones right now...How can 2 guys that havent really proven anything be compared to Donald Driver who has constantly been a big time WR?

If anything Nelson and Jones are #3's that could very well be on the verge of being a #2.

It think Driver has dropped just enough that for most teams he would be the #2 WR. Barely, but still. And I think on a vast majority of teams Jones and Nelson would also be #2s. Which is the reasoning behind my classification.

Obviously Driver is still better, but the gap has closed. Not because of Driver though, the others are getting better.

Breaston had more targets than Donald Driver even did last year. I don't think it's quite fair to say they play the same position. I really doubt that Jones couldn't get 1k yards with 113 targets, especially with his 14.2 career average. Plus the fact that he was playing most of last year with a jacked up knee and the season before he was a rookie.

Well they both play the slot, last year Breaston was the #2 while Boldin was down. The packers and Cardinals have a similar offense 2 star WR's and then great slot guys, but i just feel Breaston > Jones right now, only based on the fact that i think Breaston could fill in as a #2 right away and put up great numbers. I dont know if Jones could do that and im not going to speculate and say he could or couldnt. Breaston did so he gets the nod.
