8 reps says a whole lot about his preparation as well as his strength.

Any NFL LB blitzing would go right through him like crap through a goose!

This is Jerry Jones and him working the system to get his draft stock to fall.

He just insured the deal he will be a Cowboy in April.

Book it Dano.

Trust me, he's a much better player than a 8 rep RB.

You guys are so easily swade by every little blip on the radar.

Glad you aren't flight controllers.

For any player that fall in the Draft means loss ($$$$$$$$). If Felix Jones take the approach that you mention is totally fool. 1 round money ≠ 2 round money no matter what team he want to be drafted

That was funny.

8 reps...can you imagine him trying to pick up somebody in pass protection? Can you say concussion Romo?

Never liked him for us anyway. Ray Rice is who I want.

Amen. :bow:

He'll probably work out at his pro day and up that number.

Last I heard..the 'experts' around here already had Felix drafted in April with one of our #1's and starting in September.

Pretty laughable.

Glad we don't have some of these knee-jerks in the War Room come April.

I sure should have typed the words HUMOR POST before posting a comment like that again.

Actually, I'm still willing to bet we draft him, just not in the first round now.

Thankgoodness.

Julius Jones has big arms and I bet can bench a lot... He'd probably be a great back for us.

This guy's explosiveness and wiggle compensates for his lack of upper body strength, you don't average 9 yards a carry in the SEC if you don't have an extra gear.

Pass blocking is my only concern... He'll be a great KR/PR guy as well, but he may have just slipped to the 2nd round.

Felix's game is not built on the strength aspect, so it's more important for him to run well.

If he runs over a 4.4, then you'll hear him slipping. Of course, he scorches a 4.3, posts will pop up drooling about him in the backfield with MB.

8 reps doesn't define him as a RB, but it does dent his stock. I don't want another Julius "down on first contact" Jones. We'll see if he can raise he stock back up in other drills.

I still don't think we need or should draft a RB in the 1st round anyway, so I'm fine with passing on Felix. It's a good draft for RB.

bench pressing isnt everything..It sure doesnt mean he's going to run over people better if He bench presses more.

It's overall body strength and leverage that makes a RB dangerous and hard to bring down.


Have anybody hear played before or what?
