Lafell is an ok piece, but he's not the missing piece at wideout Jones brought the offense. Jones opened up the middle/intermediate of the field as defenses cleared out to cover him deep.

Jones fought Green for those reception. I think that makes the numbers a little different with perspective.

So you're telling me that Lafell couldnt do it when he was the teams number 2 option in the passing game but could do it when he was the number 1 option in the passing game and he had the opponents best corner covering him? That makes no sense. 

Lafell got better as the season progressed because he became more in sync with Andy and got more opportunity.

AJ going down helped inflate his numbers, but he still earned those numbers. He still got open and was productive. Just because someone gets injured it doesnt completely negate your ability and productivity.
