Our offense lacks a consisent dominating running threat with julius jones as our featured back.. here's why. Remember when Parcells was talking about how julius runs too broad shouldered (sp), it kills his ability to slide between tackles. How is this problem ever going to change? He's too bulky and hardly breaks tackles.
Marion Barber breaks more tackles in his short time with the ball than Julius Jones ever does being our feature back. We should find a way to get Lynch the kid from cal in this draft and make up for passing up steven jackson a couple years ago.
Julius Jones has trade value, it may not be very much. He would work nice in a package deal to move up a little in the draft. GB might like him enough to let us take Lynch and them have JJ and a 3rd rounder (since we seem to be horrible in that round anyway).
Face it, Julius Jones will never make a probowl. Marion Barber averages more yards a carry than Julius and he's our GOALLINE back. Why not bring a guy in who can break tackles like Barber and slide between tackles and not run so "broad shouldered"..
