Marvin Jones Denies Claim That He Wants 7 Million

[Bilbo Saggins]

The $7 million probably wouldn't be unrealistic IF Jones hadn't missed so much time due to injury. Eric Decker is the #2 on the Jets and that's about what he makes. Is Eric Decker really that much better than Jones? Are the Jets a "bad team" that doesn't know how to manage their cap space just because they pay their #2 around $7/year? No, they just missed making the playoffs with a rookie head coach and a lackluster Ryan Fitzpatrick at the helm. It'll be the injury history that probably limits Jones to a more reasonable price, just a hunch.
