ESPN Chris Mortensen 01/16 Chat Wrap... 4 'boys blurbs

I agree with the Felix Jones comment. He would be a perfect fit for us great change of pace back who is used to spliting carries. Only problem is do we really need to take a RB this early.

He could come in and wear Julius jersey. Its perfect.
Fans that have Julius jersey can tell everyone its Felix's jersey next year :laugh2:

He was fired yesterday in a possible 'blame any one else but the QB' move.

Wow! Thanks, I haven't listened to any radio or TV since the loss in my attempt to recover.......

I think we need to ensure that whichever RB we draft can handle that job alone should MBIII get hurt. We also need a better #3 RB then TT so he better produce big time in preseason or he's gone. Of course we could also use a 2nd day pick on a #3 RB.

Personally, I'd rather not take a RB in the first round. If Mendenhall, Stewart, Kevin Smith or Jones is there when we make our second selection, maybe. But if I had my druthers we'd come out of the first with Adarius Bowman and Cason or McKelvin, then grab Chris Johnson in the second.

I want Felix Jones .... we need a threat for a home run at the running back position.

Yeah, he changed his mind and said the other day that he was coming out.

(Can't say he's like like Jones-Drew, though... Felix is pretty small. Still a very dangerous open-field runner.)

Felix is 6'0 205. That's small to you, especially compared to Jones-Drew?

Why is everyone so big on Adarius Bowman?
Is it simply because we need a receiver?
Is the kid any good?

Prolly because he is 6'4" 220lbs ..... I would also like to know if the kids skills seem like they would translate well into the NFL.

Better version of Dwayne Bowie who went to the Chiefs last year. Can't wait for the combine so he can showcase.....
