The guy is great on the perimeter... great on jump balls. He would get A LOT more chances to make plays in the endzone if AJ Green wasn't around... or Tyler Eifert for that matter.

He has put up good numbers in an offense loaded with talent.

Sure you can make the case that he won't be as effective if he is double covered like AJ, but isn't that why you pay guys big money to be a #1 receiver, to draw double coverage?

Marvin Jones is enough of a matchup problem to cause defenses to roll his way if he was the main weapon. I think in an offense as a number one he could do fairly well. I think given a shot he would prove a lot of you wrong. Just my opinion.

I cannot say you are wrong, i always thought MLJ was special but he has yet to be a #1 so this is still assumption.

But he has the skills no question. It is not like he is Housh who was more of a Slot/3rd down option.

MLJ has the speed and ball skills to be a #1. I just doubt we pay him like one and somebody probably will.
