[SD]

Former Cowboys running back Felix Jones reached agreement on a one-year deal with the Philadelphia Eagles.

no risk, probably won't make team

meh

[ice grillin you]

absolutely love this move.....more so the thinking behind it and what it says about the regime than felix jones himself.....but theres nothing not to really like

[rjs246]

So they have McCoy and two talented fumblers. Meh. I agree with IGY, though I'm not nearly as enthusiastic. Low risk, high reward move.

Terribly unimpressed.

Injury prone and not very good.

If you subtract the injury problems and fumbling he's a fine back. If he makes the team it will be as 3rd on the depth chart...in other words it's a meh move.

[ice grillin you]

again IF he stays healthy...i think hes a much better fit for this offense than bb and can definitely beat him out....hes an excellent receiver and can be moved all over the field...and because hes more elusive he fits in the read option sets better...he was at his best in dallas on delays and draws

he also has a higher career ypc than shady

even as the third back though i think he will get a solid amount of run...as long as chips plan of running 80+ offensive plays a game come to fruition

go head felix

more speed the better--just need stickier gloves

[Zanshin]

I liked him coming out of school and could never figure out why he couldn't capitalize on that potential. But, whatever. He's quick and could be a decent part-time player. No risk move, so, fine.

So what you're saying is, if you disregard the things that made him a lousy player the last few years, he's alright?

Fanfargingtastic.

[SD]

That would be a valid point if he were going to get significant pt. hes depth pure and simple meaning he might get 30 carries this season if he even makes the team. It's really a no brainer type move just in case shady or bb gets hurt. I don't see the downside negative nancy.

[Diomedes]

It would never be a valid point because I'm farging with you.

I don't give a shtein about Felix Cowboy Jones.  It would be nice if it worked out of course, but Yaawwn.
