Yep.  People will say that comparison is only because they are both white, but he does come from that higher production background while not being typical NFL size.  Shipley had 52 receptions for 600 yards and 3 TDs as a rookie.  He was also 24 when he was drafted.  Immediate impact on a team that is trying to win now?  Yes, please.

Oh, and Shipley ran a 4.62 in the forty, not the 4.43 ran by Jones.

Another interesting parallel?  Shipley had Terrell Owens and Chad Johnson commanding a lot of attention outside.  Jones would have Chase and Higgins commanding a lot of attention outside.  

Boyd has been the ultimate team player.  I am sure they will rotate Jones in a few series early, and then on 4 WR sets.  

I'm excited to have this reliable, shifty, and fast option.
