Man a lot of you have taken a stupid position with respect to Felix Jones.

There is no reason to not like Felix Jones on the Cowboys.

But so many of you have taken the infantile position that because mock drafts have been predicting him as the pick instead of your guy, you have decided to bad mouth and hate Felix.

There is no reason to be so anti-Felix. At least no reason based on his performance. It's reasonable to prefer someone else. But it is downright moronic to be angry about the prospect of Felix on the Cowboys. He adds value to the team.

And it is likely we take him. So the lot of you who have wedded yourselves so strongly and adamantly against Felix are going to be disappointed and hold that against him as a player here. And that is just sad. There's no reason for it beyond pettiness.

Keep your own opinion. I'll keep mine.

Yeah, no reason to dislike wasting a #1 draft choice on a guy who'll never be more than a part-time running back? OK.....

Spare us the insults for people who don't share your opinion. That's just ignorant. I don't like the thought of drafting a part-timer in the first round. I'm entitled to my opinion.

I've clearly given my reason. He's not worth drafting in the first round.

And spare us all your insults when our opinions don't match yours.

I gotta agree. I think he is a fantastic fit here and if we get him at 28 I will be ecstatic. I admit openly that I want Cason at 22.

Yeah..........like Felix Jone's PR guy says.........stop the bashing Felix the Cat.

but in all seriousness, i agree, just cause you like someone more, doesnt mean you have to bash the guy you like less. I dont want Felix Jones. I cant explain why...I just dont. One good side to Felix though, is that he is already used to sharing the load in the backfield. However, I want Charles.

I'll take your Cobra and raise you one Mongoose :laugh2:

Yes, you are. You are most certainly entitled to your opinion.

And I'm entitled to call your opinion infantile and moronic.

You--who isn't a scout and seems to have a divergent opinion from everyone who does this for a living--are going to bash a perfectly fine player because you have pulled out of your *** some arbitrary opinion that he isn't worth a first round pick.

Now I got to deal with years of people throwing temper tantrums like 5 years who didn't get the candy they wanted at Target and listen to them bash the team and an otherwise fine addition to the team. So your opinion becomes my problem.

So have your infantile opinion. But if you are going to broadcast it, I'm going call a spade a spade.

Rage against the CowboysZone machine, give me Felix in round #1! One of the highest YPC in NCAA history! If not him, then I would be happy with Stewart or Brandon Albert, then Antoine Cason at #28.

Least wanted is D. Jackson, just can't see him as anything other than a return man

honestly there isnt much they can do to screw this up...we're in a great position almost no matter what we do...

I dont understand the anti- Felix Jones stuff...kid is very talented and fits nicely with what we need and what he can do on the field as a RB and KR...I'd rather not take him at 22, but if they do its clearly because they think he's still the BPA so I'm fine with it

would love to see us get Roy Williams, Boldin or Chad Johnson, but am pretty resolved to that not happening

And of course I'd love for us to get Darren McFadden...I think other than getting Roy Williams, nothing could be betetr for our team than him...he's the best player in the draft and is an explosive playmaker...he works his tail off and he's still only 20yrs old...

Cant really see them screwing this up in any way, shape or form...we have a loaded team and just acquired (great) help at the position we needed the most help at...we can draft the BPA's and be happy about it

It is quite possible that some of us honestly just don't like the guy as an NFL prospect. It's not that I like someone else more, I don't want any backup RB in the 1st and I certainly don't want Felix Jones. I don't understand why it's considered "infantile" to not like a prospect.

I'm scratching my head in disbelief that I actually agree with this post - assuming that Dmac doesn't fall to around the 7-10 picks and we can't acquire him under "reasonable" circumstances.:D

I like Cason but I'm torn as to whether we could get him and Felix Jones with our 2 firsts. Me thinks one of them may not be available, but I hope that I'm wrong.

Whatever happened to your man love for Ray Rice in the 2nd?

I like Ray Rice.

Felix Jones fills 2 needs because he is a good KR too.

I'd also welcome Chris Johnson or Jamaal Charles in the 2nd.

I don't get so fixated on one solution that I can't stomach all other options.

Most wanted- Any of the top CB's. I really dont have a favorite. I just watch highlight vidoes and listen to what scouts say. Any of them would be good to me.


Dont want- Dmac!!! Unless he falls to 22 or maybe 15 or so. He doesnt nothing for me.
