Player Info:
Felix is Expected to Start in Dallas
After the first 6 games of the season Jones looked like he might at some point take Marion Barber over as the #1 runner on the Dallas Cowboys. With explosive running in the opportunity's he received, Jones put on a show.
In his 30 carries he posted an outstanding 8.3 yard per carry and 3 touchdowns. Only one problem happened after that and that was he got injured and was done for the season. To me the Cowboys had many flaws last season, but if this guy stays healthy they would have made the playoffs and probably done well when they got there.
It's not that Marion Barber isn't a talented runner, he's great for what he does. And what he excels at is coming into a game and punishing a defense while he's fresh, and they are a little tired. This worked to perfection in 2006 and 2007 when the Cowboys used Julius Jones as the starting tailback.
This season much talk is coming out of Dallas that they intend to use Barber in the same fashion. This leaves Felix the Cat to start and use his explosion more often than last year.
Felix Jones Fantasy Football Value in 2009
I see Felix as a more explosive version of Julius Jones in the Cowboys' offense. Now he won't be a double digit touchdown maker this year, but he will have some long TD's when he breaks away in the open field.
With the Cowboys losing Terrell Owens and a strong need to keep Tony Romo upright this year, the boys will use their runners to dominate the game. I believe this is a great mindset and one that if plays out like I believe it will take them to the Super Bowl.
Once people notice that Dallas has two star running backs it will be too late as defenses will have to game plan on how to stop this two back team. This running will in turn open up the passing lanes for Romo and Roy Williams and the rest is history.
Look for Jones in the middle rounds of your fantasy football draft as a rock solid flex play. Then sit back and enjoy the show.
Fantasy Assets:
- Game Breaker
- Great Team Around Him
- In a Run First Offense (This Year)
Fantasy Liability's:
- Will lose TD's to Marion Barber
- Need to show his Durability
