    SUMMARY: With just a few days of Titans training camp in the books, Brandon Jones is making a case that his name belongs among those being considered for the starting slot receiver position. Though he's having his best training camp of his three-year career, he's not going to rest on his early showing. "It’s too early to tell. We’ve got a long way to go," Jones said. "If you ask me this after the fourth preseason game, and I’m still doing my thing out there on the field, then I’d say, yeah, but it’s a long road" His work is also getting noticed by Offensive Coordinator Mike Heimerdinger. "He’s doing better. He’s getting in the right spots," said Heimerdinger. "He doesn’t have any mental busts right now, and he’s making some tough catches the last couple of days. Brandon is doing some good things."

    this is no surprise to me, I knew Jones was a good solid guy who deserves a roster spot

    He has to win that slot job to stay on the roster, IMO.

    He doesn't really shy away from a hit, and his route running is good enough... sure, why not? He needs to give us more than a couple of good games a year though.

    It doesn't even matter. It's not like he'll play half a season healthy anyway.

    Those who've been to a few camps know that what you see in the first week can change quickly. Chris Sanders used to look invincible at camp. He'd catch everything in his zip code.

    Season arrives and BOOM... same Sanders.

    quote for the truth.

    I want to see him catch a pass against Indy on 3rd and 7 with the game on the line then I'll start liking him...
