ArDarius Stewart > Chris Jones

Chris Jones just doesn't look like the player he once was. He looked explosive at WR and had way more speed years prior to this year. He also looks so frail.

His best play of the year is the catch against LSU

We've heard good things about Stewart but that's about it. Failed to get any separation on his 2 vertical routes against State.

I also remember a time when people were saying Black > Cooper

I will say our return game has been abysmal. Just look at the stats. One thing that has plagued Jones each of the last 3 years is lining up too deep on punts resulting in the ball dropping and rolling in front of him time and time again.

True. I wonder if Christion also struggles at judging the depth of punts once it is kicked though. Two years ago when Christion and Cyrus were alternating fricking up PRs, Cyrus' problem was fumbling after catching the punt whereas Christions' problem was usually fumbling an attempt to make a running catch on balls that bounced in front of him. I know sometimes the ball is just shanked and there's no way the PR can get to it, but it seems to be more of a problem with Christion than most

Uh, you could lose your best WR for the rest of the game.

Same thing could happen on a slant where he gets his knee blasted? He at least has the opportunity to get down with vision in front of him on returns. Gurley returned for UGA and didn't get hurt until he played his position. That kind of paranoia is for the regular season worrying about keeping guys healthy the whole season. This is for all the marbles.

I agree. Christion hasn't been the same player he once was. I remember his freshman year, I always thought he would have the most solid hands. Just lost his burst

Stewart is an explosive athlete, Alabama 2A State Champ in the 100m and 200m dashes in 2013. Times in both events are comparable to the times of Kenyan Drake in high school.

Drake
100m PR- 10.83
200m PR- 21.91

Stewart
100m PR-10.83
200m PR- 22.01

Stewart was also the Alabama 2A State Champ in the Discus as well.

Jones doesn't start at the slot because of his pass catching. He starts at the slot because of his blocking. He's as physical a blocker as there is at WR.

He had separation in the deep pass over the middle but Blake threw to the wrong side. Stewart will be a star. A friend of mine was his hs head coach . So I got to see him play a good bit. He has since added some good weight and even more speed. He came from a small school with not much of a weight program etc. Look for a huge game from him on Sat. Finna eat n shite
