    He is garbage i don't care what anybody saying about him!! I would much rather throw the ball to Roydell Willimas on crutches than Brandon Jones with his butterfingers released this bum!!

    The guy does have talent. He's a solid receiver in terms of talent but the mental game just isn't there yet. It's not like he drops the ball all the time. He just seems to drop the ball whenever it's in a big time situation. I don't know if he is capable of being a good receiver simply because he can't handle clutch situations. If he could find a way to make the big plays he has the potential to be pretty good.

    I recall only two significant drops from Brandon Jones: the one against the Colts, and the one against the Broncos.

    I also recall three games in '06 where Brandon had a fourth quarter TD to either tie the game or give the Titans the win.

    For the first time in his career, Jones is finally playing for an NFL-caliber coordinator with a long track record of turning average talent into Pro Bowl caliber WR's. (Compare this to Norm Chow, who has been coaching for 20+ years, and has yet to develop a single successful NFL-caliber WR.)

    It's all up to Brandon now...but at least now he has someone to get him pointed in the right direction, instead of lapsing into mediocrity.

    This kid can play he just needs to stay healthy. Based on his attitude i doubt he will get cut. We have POS wasted pick paul williams and the whale with legs mike williams to cut first.

    It's funny to me that so many still think mike williams can play but so many think brandon jones can't. I'll take brandon any day. He's a solid kid..

    If Jones can play healthy and put R. Williams, Gage, McCairens, Crumpler, and Chris Johnson into the mix. VY is going to have some weapons.

    I agree. Its up to him, but I am rooting for him in a big way.

    I guess I know how all of the troupe/calico supporters feel now. When I look at BJones, I see a guy who has the athletic tools, plus the good route running to start for the Titans, but for some reason or another, there is just something missing mentally (on top of his injury problems). I hope he shocks the NFL this year, and doesn't follow in the line of #87 and 84.
