Cowboys RB Felix Jones, is he the man?

[Coachnorm]

By all accounts he probably will be for the Cowboys this year. Marion Barber appears to be gone. Tashard Choise spent most of last season in the doghouse. Jones last year was coming of an injury and looked very fast but before the injury he was blazing fast. He turned in a nice campaign, had a lot of catches, but still finished in the 20s in fantasy scoring among RBs. So what do you think about him this year? Does his speed go up a notch back into the blazing fast category? Is he likely to elevate his game to top 15 RBs?

Im just not sure. I think this ends up with DeMarco Murray and Jones sharing the load. Murray is a bit bigger back and Jones being the home run thread.

Honestly, before the draft I had Choice tagged as the next big Dallas rb. He still may be. I think they try to push Felix this year, but I dont' think he can hold up. It will be then between Choice and Murray. I still lean toward choice, all he has done is produce when called on. But Murray has alot of potential as well.

Barber is gone.

Nice thinking here Gentlemen, but I am interested in how much do you think Felix Jones will improve this year. Maybe you don't think Felix makes a leap this season.

While Jones had a nice campain last season, in the Sports Outlaw Fantasy Football League (SOFFL) he finished behind Fred Jackson and Knowshon Moreno and most people hate Knowshon right now.

I was with you on this idea but Choice seemed to be in the doghouse most of the year. I would have thought he would get more opportunities last year just to check him out for future potential.

Last play of the half fumble for a TD words!

Felix is trash. He'll be great for about 3 games, injured for the rest.
