This doesnt work me.

I want Barber to remain the backup or atleast split carries with a SPEEDY starter.

Julius as backup does nothing for us - he had his chances to shine with Bill and post Bill in a non-robot approach.

I agree.

Everyone wants Barber as a starter but I think his best roll is coming off the bench and literally being a human shot of adrenaline.

I do want him to get more touches than last year but bring him off the bench.

No, this draft class is deep and Dallas needs to get younger and get a RB that complements Barber. Barber is like what Jacobs is to the Giants, now we need a Bradshaw.

I'll be honest.

We have 2 open positions at RB. You can either fill both with rookies which I'm not real comfortable with or you can fill 1 with a vet and 1 with a rookie. Why throw money at an aging vet from another system is you can have Jones back for the right deal and still be able to draft a RB?

In the right situation with no promises and for the right price I would prefer to have Jones back and draft a RB then any of the other options avaliable.

You're a wise man.

I would, i still think Julius is great at screens, draws and dump offs and can pick up the blitz.

I believe JJ has wore out his welcome Hos......recall towards the end of the season he seem to become unhappy with his situation

I think people are too hung up on "labels" - - "starter" "backup"
Once the game starts IT HAS STARTED.... anyone who comes in should contribute.

Just as we(and other teams) have situational pass rushers.... we have a situational Rusher

:hammer:

I'll be honest, I didn't read through this whole thread. This was as far as I had to go. I wouldn't be against re-signing Jones at all. But, it wouldn't preclude me from selecting the best back available for the value of the pick this upcoming April.

I'd tell him to slim down if he wants back

but Jerry said that he would like for Julius to return, so...
