i say trade while his stock is high. we where in this same situation after 04 when jordan was a free agaent and curtis just won the rushing title. besides how many break aways did jones have? does he break alot of tackles? no i think he is a product of our O line. get fresh legs and match it with leon.
It will be tough to come away with the another season like last, but still worth while to bring him back, but not at an LC or Bryan Thomas levels
After last season its about as high as its gonna get. Might as well sell him before the head gasket goes.
I agree he does not break tackles & does not out run guys. He is a product of the O line & he 31 no new contract in 1 to 2 years he is done.
I made a thread suggesting that a while ago and got roasted by a lot of people. A lot of people did make a good point though that his trade value probably isn't very high. It's probably lower now that he's asking for a new contract. My guess is that his trade value will only get worse from here. At this point we might as well bite the bullet, give him an extra $500,000-$1,000,000 to shut him up for a year and draft his replacement next year.
Did we get him for a 4th round pick? If so 2 years older at 31 I do not see us getting more than a 6th round pick for the guy.
I don't think we should trade him. He had a good year in Chicago and we got him for a 3rd? round pick, and he was a few years younger. I say we keep him, as he has a low cap number for this year. Our offense doesn't have a lot of playmakers, I don't want to lose another one
It was a trade down in the second from the early second to the mid-late second. Something like 15-17 picks down.
what ever happened to just shutting up and playing football and letting your work on the field do you talking for you? instead these cry babys complain like they havent mad millions of dollars already in a economy thats not doing so well just be glad they have a freaking job doing something they love...
this guy is expendable ... we can get rid of him in a heart beat and wont miss a step just draft us another RB and we will just keep rolling..
Give the man a freakin pay raise this one season, that or add more next season god damn, he lead the AFC in rushing and he is making 900K this year give him some money. We didnt seem to have a problem with Coles getting the last two years of his contract guaranteed and Jones>>>>>>Coles
this is our only shot to actually get something for him....deal him i hate this money money money crap....why do they sign these long term deals if they play 2 seasons and want another contract...he can kiss my ass greedy fucks
He can't go anywhere .. play hardball with him ... there's still two years left on his contract ... start Washington ... draft a RB ... limited Jones carries
