Kevin Jones in Black and Gold
 

The Lions released RB Kevin Jones and depending on what happens with Deuce I think he'd be a great fit for our offense if we got him at the right price. He is very fragile but when he's healthy he's a complete every down back. I picked him up in fantasy last year when he came back from his injury and he was very productive. He came back in great shape and was able to regain most of his agiltiy and all of his speed. Our team already has way too many ifs as it is but if this guy could stay healthy he would be a beast in our offense. He's good between the tackles, he's great when he get's outside, he has good hands for a RB, and unlike Reggie he hits the hole hard and fast when it's open. As much as I love Deuce I think it would be smart to replace him with a younger, faster, and cheaper Kevin Jones.

He is an Aaron Stecker type back. Which we have. He may be a few years younger than AS, but not as tenacious.

To injury prone. I'll pass

Re: Kevin Jones in Black and Gold
 

Kevin Jones is a complete back & I'd love to have him (at the right price). My only concern with him is durability. Oh yeah...he's way better than Stecker, guys.

Re: Kevin Jones in Black and Gold
 

All due respect to Mr Stecker, he is no Kevin Jones. He might be more tenacious and less injury prone but I'd rather have Jones. If Jones were to sign for Stecker money but it meant dropping Steck, I'd say do it in a heartbeat. By the way, how is Jones a Stecker like player? Steck has always been a great special teams guy and decent third down back. When Jones is on the field he is an every down back with a ton of talent. But no, he doesn't have half the heart that Stecker has and I'll admit that counts alot.

KJ had the best spin move ive ever seen... it became known as the "madden spin move" b/c it looked like he was playin a video game.. i wish i had video of it cuz it was great

Re: Kevin Jones in Black and Gold
 

We need a hammer at RB not another jitter bug. KJ is good but we have gambled enough with injured LB already.

Injury Prone? Do we have enough bicyles to go around this season?

Re: Kevin Jones in Black and Gold
 

Well said, get a big, strong young RB with no injury history.

... call me crazy, but I don't see how "complete every down back" and "very fragile" go together..
