Felix Jones Highlights

[theogt]

Since it appears we're nearly certain to take him, here's a very long highlight reel.

He's obviously got some moves and has nice burst. And the biggest thing is he doesn't go down soft like Julius, that's for sure.

Oh well, at least it's not Chris Johnson.

Who knows what Dallas is thinking on getting. I don't want Felix Jones in the first round, but I am prepared to get him if thats what Dallas really wants. If we do get him it will be interesting to see what Wade Phillips and Jerry Jones have to say on why they wanted a RB in the first round even when they are going to sign Barber to a big fat contract.

He sure gets to the outside pretty quickly.

Isn't "acceptance" one of the five stages of grief?

I have to agree with you there.

:laugh2:

 

[FCBarca]

Yeah, that's the thing for me...Almost any highlight I've ever seen of this kid involves him turning to the sideline and using his speed to pick up yards...I don't see much in the terms of cutting back, finding holes or being elusive

I don't know, at least with Johnson it meant we moved down rather than taking a backup rb in the 1st.

I think I'd rather have Felix in the 1st than CJ in the 2nd. At least Felix has lateral agility and can pass block.

 

[InmanRoshi]

I'll take a niche back when his niche is 40 yard TD runs.

 

[Doomsday101]

I have to say I like the Jamaal Charles clips on the same website as well.

Ditto.

Sprinkle in some Cason and I'd be pretty happy.

While that's true, I have some serious questions about his speed. He gets run down from behind by a linebacker at the 2:27 mark. He's therefore second round material.

 

[CATCH17]

Hes got really really good feet and can get up to top speed quick.

Hes almost to perfect for what we need.

I bet that guy can play some basketball too.

We probably won't even draft him now after all this buildup...

Seriously, this would be the most widely-anticipated 20s draft ever. That's enough to make you skeptical that it won't happen.

(But I did watch the combine highlights of every back on NFL.com, and he looks like he cuts sharper and quicker than any back out there.)

you gotta be able to run inside in this league... at least to get serious carries

Hes definetely a legit 1st round talent.

If he plays anywhere else in the Nation it would be interesting to see how high he wouldve gone in this draft.

Other than Ray Rice, you mean, right?

you could say the same about the guy out of Oregon

 

[Roger78]

So, why is it that we don't like this guy???

Did score like 100 TD's at Arkansas?
