I'm not sure about Jones. Dallas has a damn good OL and he still only had 3.6 YPC. not exactly something to hang your hat on. I'd rather get a draftee. with the crap OL Chicago has, he'll be lucky to get 3 YPC.

Exactly. I think his running style resembles everyone's most hated, Cedric Benson, so if you hate Ced, you will probably end up hating JJ. Not to mention there might be some harsh feelings for JJ toward the Bears after the sudden trade of TJ, his brother.

 

I think signing Berrian should be our #2 priority, otherwise, with Johnson as our #1, we will be looking at a "WR with our first pick in the next year's draft" scenario.

I haven't seen Julius Jones play that much, so I'm curious about which style of Cedrics does he copy most. Is it:

1. Lean left, lean right, then drop on contact.

2. Run into your own offensive lineman & fall-down.

3. On a pass, focus on the defense so the ball drops off your hands, or

4. Finally make a big play, then celebrate by leaving the field on a stretcher.

 

Cedric ought to get those moves patented.

 

The question is not whether Julius Jones is better then Cedric, but whether or not he's better then Adrian Peterson, who was the best back on this team last year in terms of total yardarge.

No, it's more like

1. Can run with only an OL

2. Most RB's can only do that

3. Look at 2006 if you don't believe me.
