After a disappointing 2007 performance Jones rushed for a team record 13 TDs. Hoping to cash in on his 2008 performance Jones sat out voluntary early spring team activities seeking a reworking of his current contract. The Jets did not re-work Jones contract but did acquire his possible successor by moving up in the third round of the 2009 NFL draft and selecting Iowa RB Shonn Greene. If you are targeting Jones use caution based on his age, injury history, and the possibilty of Washington seeing an expanded role in 2009.
The season isn't officially over and I think the Jets playoff run is giving Rex some sort of extra bravado to keep his mug in the limelight. I'd obviously prefer a low profile from my coach until the pre-season.
I'll preface this by saying that ...

Draft Analysis
Round 5, Pick 1
Positives Durable, experienced. Negatives Lack of TDs last year. Generally bad team. Draft Strategy Jones' performance hinges on Brett Favre. If he opens up the offense, Jones will certainly benefit. If not, he'll be mediocre at best. But I only need him to be a fill in at RB3. (Contributed by: Phyrre56)
Round 3, Pick 12
Positives Jones should be the feature back with the Jets. Hope Favre can open up the running game for him a bit and get him involved in the passing game as well. Should rush for over 1000 yards. Negatives Only one TD last season. Is 30. Draft Strategy Need another RB as I went with a WR in round 2. Still feeling a bit thin at RB. (Contributed by: hawkenstein)
