Cowboys free-agent RB Felix Jones worked out today for the Philadelphia Eagles, per league source.


Watch him go there and dominate. Seems appropriate.

:suxiggle:

Move along people. There's nothing to see here.
:cop:

Patriots worked him out as well.

All those ripping on him now show their true colors of "fanhood".

lol @ fanhood. That dude was nothing more than a scrub. Super happy he is out of here. He can go laugh when he fumbles on another team.

Yea, he was a scrub..

Yea, he was a scrub..

He definitely wasn't a scrub, especially his first couple years, but he is a shell of his former shelf now and he wasn't a great player to begin with.

He may have never been one of the great RB's in the league, but he was very good.

His 4.8 career rushing average, behind years of bad OL's.. proves to me he could get the job done.

We all like to bring up the "what if's" and hypotheticals of what would have happened if we drafted another back that year, but none of us really knows what they would've done behind our crap OL's.

If he could ever stay healthy and in shape than he could kill it on a team like San Fran because he is so dangerous when in the open field.

Glad you see it my way too.

Yeah "If" that if never happened here though.

.

Troy Hambrick had a 5.0 ypc average when he was backing up Emmitt.

Once he became the focal back, it dropped to 3.1.

You can't make ypc comparisons with stats when you're a backup.

Jones was a totally wasted 1st round pick.

I still don't understand the concept of using a top pick to draft a "change of pace" back. Kills me.

Hambrick had one year with a 5.0 ypc.. the rest of the years of his career was nowhere near that.

Bad comparison.

No one sees it your way..

Your comparison from earlier about the other backs from the draft was completely misguided.

Yeah, the paint lines tremble in fear when Felix is in the open field. Never know when they will be dealt the knock out blow.

I really hated when Cowboys selected F. Jones (I really wanted Ray Rice), but of course like all other Cowboys, I fully supported him and hoped that he performed well, which he did occasionally, but not enough.

Anyways, I dont have any bad feelings toward him and wish him the best.
