Jones leaving GB would disappoint me. Jones joining the Vikings would worry me a bit.

Jones is a good player and his #1 fan is the face of this franchise, A-Rodg. Sure, he has a drop problem and he is lucky that his drop in the SB didn’t cost us the game… BUT… that is something that can be corrected. At the same time, he has made some incredible plays in big moments.

Meanwhile, the Vikings offense doesn’t look as horrendous as I thought it would this season. Say what you want, but McNabb isn’t a bad QB. If Harvin can stay healthy and Peterson can hold the ball, with Jones they could be quite dangerous.

Yes, this is a lot of ifs, I realize that. All that being said, if all of these ifs turn out in the Vikings favor, I still think GB is the far superior team.

I’m not in the Packers front office, but i’d like to keep him, but there must be more to this guy we dont know if he was willing to take a cut and the Pack still passed on him, but its not like they couldnt sign him if they wanted to regardless of money, its not like the Pack needs money off the books to be a player in free agency.

I figured the people most likely to overlook JJ’s postseason would be someone within the division. As I have said before, he has made a lot of plays against the Vikings. So, not a bad idea for them to sign him.

With Berrian and Harvin, Minny has plenty of speed. Jones would give them some size. The obvious problem is that you normally like your possession WRs to be sure handed.

The Cardinals completely overpaid for Colledge. No surprise there. Enjoy.

Well if the Vikings overpay for James Jones and he ends up going there, we KNOW it was the right thing in letting him go. The Vikings are incapable of good personnel moves.
