Jones got 44 offensive snaps this year, the lion's share vs Cleveland's backups.
I don't necessarily disagree with you, but that seems awful risky for a SB contender. He is WAY unproven.
I think we want to get more explosive at WR, and Jones does not necessarily bring that. He is speedy, but not explosive. If we were do go with Charlie in the slot to replace Boyd, I think we'd need a serious TE upgrade to compensate (Schultz, Sanders).
I also would not discount the idea of moving Chase inside and getting another wide WR. It does not have to be another slot guy (Roman Wilson, Corley, MacMillan) to replace Boyd. If Polk or Legette is there Rd2, that is awful tempting.
