How much will Aaron Rodgers miss James Jones?

"I think fans will miss James Jones more than anybody else. We all love the guy and hate to see him go. He’s a true class act. He’s as tough as they come for the receiver positions and is a very selfless player, which is rare for wideouts. Jones is a big loss, but the Packers still have their top two receivers in Jordy Nelson and Randall Cobb. They also have up-and-comer Jarrett Boykin, who had a big season last year due to injuries to the starters. I also wouldn’t be surprised if the Packers added some receiving talent in the draft. Even though Jones will be missed, they’ll be fine at receiver. It’s the potential loss of Jermichael Finley at tight end that might be more difficult to replace."
