Running Back Rank: #40
Overall: #97
Jones got off to a tremendous start with his new team last season, but finished with a thud. He had 100-yard games in two of his first three, but had fewer than 50-rushing yards his last six games. Jones is a former 1,000-yard back but has been a better complimentary player than marquee back. The Seahawks are expected to use a two-back approach with new offensive coordinator Greg Knapp. Jones could do well in this system if he gets playing time at one of those spots. Jones is a fast, powerful back that is capable of breaking a big run every time he touches the ball. His minuses are he lacks good vision sometimes and isn't much of a factor in the passing game.

A guy to take as a No. 3 or 4 back. He has a little yardage potential, but isn't likely to score much. Jones has eight touchdowns the last three seasons. |
