No fair. Jones has fresher legs. 
ROUND 5 PICK 182 - RB AARON JONES (UTEP)
But but but, pass protection! And he's injury prone!! AND HE HAS A FUMBLE!!!
He should be good for over a hundred....on 4 or 5 carries.
In the 1st quarter.
Aaron Jones is worth a 2nd round pick today. He’s worth a 1st rounder if he’s used correctly.
Hes not Kamara. But he’s next door with a better outdoor grill.
Aaron Jones is the biggest mistake Mike ever made after Winston Moss.

Just imagine what Sean McVeigh or Bill Bellicheat would be doing with him. Or Sean Payton.

IMO Jones is definitely worth a first round pick. I think hes a stud rb. In our weak OL plus pass happy offense he still excels. In a run heavy offense with blockers, hed go ape shit.
Curious if Kamara and Jones switched teams, what the result would be

Or Taysom Hill, imagine the spooge on the monitors.
Note to Jones. Please stay away from elevators. Take the stairs. Nothing bad happens on stairs.

IIRC. Lofton. Top Shelf in Green Bay. Stairs.

The other Aaron was clearly not expecting that great of a block. Hopefully Jones has earned his trust and he won't bail out like that in the future.
Jones bulked up over the off season. I forget the amount, but IIRC he gained like 7-8 pounds of muscle mass in hopes he'd absorb hits and avoid injury.
He also carried the ball 23 times and had 27 touches. I cannot fathom McStubborn ever allowing that. Im not saying Jones could handle that over 16 games, but it's still refreshing to see a HC actually willing to RTFB.

Yep - when that play happened I thought the same thing - no need to spin out like he did. #12 clearly wasn't expecting the block that he got from Jones.

Yeah, when I looked up at the scoreboard in the 3rd quarter and saw that he already had 18 carries I said that was like 3 games with McVince!

Don't worry.

That was a perfect set up for you.
I love how he doesn't stop after knocking him on his ass. He searches him out laying at the feet of the lineman and goes in to block him again.
Must have spent some time with the OL coach.
Jones was blocking like Smith said something nasty about Jones' mother.

Now that's impressive!
Draft AND Develop
Thanks TED!!!
I've been saying this for years. Aaron Jones is EVERY bit as good as Dub Jones.
... but not as good as Sayers. Always the knees.

Aaron Jones. Dual Threat.

So Aaron Jones was fined $10,527 for his wave to Cowboys CB Byron Jones when scoring his 3rd TD. Even tho he was not penalized on the play the No Fun League came down hard on him.
Really fortunate he didn't draw a taunting flag on the play.
I thought his wave was dumb, but glad he didn't get flagged.There's a difference between fun and being an A-hole.
Agreed. Don't taunt the opponent. Celebrate with your teammates instead.

While I agree, I LOL'ed the first time I saw it!
Yea, I think Aaron Jones' money was well-spent there...
With all the shit talking going on out there, I'm a little surprised that drew a fine.

What kills me, absolutely slays me, is the fact the only Eagles player to get fined from our game with them was Barnett. Out of how many (6-7?) PF penalties, that's the only one.
But then fine a player for some crap like this.
NFLFU indeed.

I still think he first intended to get ready for a stiff arm then realized how much space he had. Got caught up in the moment.
Hope the other Aaron peels off a few bills from his State Farms commercials or puts Jones in a commercial to cover the fine.
I think you'd be surprised how the players get their fines covered.
