You have to factor in the injury issue that Jones is going through right now too. He has only played one year where he was healthy. If I remember correctly he had an ankle injury his rookie year too. White has had a few rough spots the last few years, but it's been nothing like Jones.
I believe Sanu is a much better WR3 than Hankerson though. It's a pretty wide margin from what we've seen of their professional careers thus far even though Sanu has the dropsies.
I don't know about statistically speaking, but I've never seen Roddy White look as bad as the guy I watched on the field for the last 2 seasons. He's been on quite the decline, BUT he was so good that declining a bit still makes him a good receiver, I won't deny that. I absolutely believe Roddy White > MLJ, I just don't know if it's as big of a gap as people want to say, especially if we see 2013 MLJ and 2013/2014 White both show up this coming year. Injury is definitely a factor as well.
A.J. >= Julio
MLJ < White
Sanu >> Hankerson
I think it's definitely debatable, especially depending on how much you weigh depth and your opinion of the current versions of the #2 receivers. I was very impressed watching Marvin in 2013, stats aside the kid just looked great. I hope he can keep it up.
