I don't know if anybody else noticed this last season, but I think Jones "tips" the defense on running plays. I could correctly call run / pass about 90% of the time last season, not counting situational downs. In single back formations, he seemed to line up about 10+ yards off the ball on a run play, but only 5-7 on passing plays. I know this is somewhat common for younger players, as it gives them more time to find a whole, but you don't see this all that much on the NFL level.
McFadden is not going to be a great NFL RB. He's fast. He's skilled. But unless the NFL takes after the NCAA and all offenses start shifting to a spread, he is just going to be an outside threat. McFadden has been and will continue to be a workout warrior. He impressed in workouts and the combine before the draft and it is no surprise that he is impressive in camp in Oakland. Wait for Sundays.
My thing is if we moved up to get Dustin Keller why didnt we just move up to get the player we really wanted like Mcfadden or Chris Long though keller seems to be a hit we should of mad a move with a package and throw chad pennington some were in there too
